Gawain lies in bed during the early hours of New Yearâs morning, listening to the harsh wind wailing outside the castle. Before the sun comes up, he rises and prepares to depart, putting on his armor and ordering servants to saddle his horse. Despite Gawainâs anxiety, his armor shines as brightly as it did when he left Camelot. He does not forget to tie the ladyâs girdle around his waist. The girdleâs green color stands out against the red cloth of Gawainâs surcoat.
