Read the excerpt from "Gawayne." "Forgive me, lady," said he; ". . . you can perhaps help me; if you would do this, lady, and teach me how to pay my ransom, I will grant anything you ask as a reward."

The deformed lady said: "Swear to me . . . that you will grant me whatever . . . I ask, and I will help you to the secret. Yes, Sir King, I know by secret means that you seek the answer to the question, 'What is it all women most desire?' Many women have given you many replies, but I alone . . . can give you the right answer. . . ."

"Indeed, O grim lady, the oath I will take gladly," said King Arthur; and when he had sworn it . . . the lady told him the secret, and he vowed with great bursts of laughter that this was indeed the right answer.

What is the best inference a reader can make from this excerpt?

The lady will ask Arthur for a very large reward.

The lady's answer to the question is incorrect.

The lady will no longer be there when Arthur returns.

The lady has given him too many replies.
