4 words that tell about king George the third
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Shortsighted, illness, Honest, & Faithful.

Explanation:

George was faithful since he never took a mistress (in contrast with his grandfather and his sons), and the couple enjoyed a genuinely happy marriage. (Honest is tied to this argument)

He can also be described with the term "Illness" since he in the later half of his life suffered from recurrent and, eventually, permanent mental illness. (Shortsighted connects to this argument since he became pretty much blinded because of the illness that he suffered.)
