Answer 1

The detail that best demonstrate Griselda's stoically patient attitude is She admits that her "lowly condition" is "at odds" with her husband's nobility.

Stoically attitude is about holding serenity even in adverse life situations and in the Tenth Day: Tenth Story even after being through many patient tests from Gualtieri when Griselda is back to her father's house she still admits to herself that with having her both children killed, her marriage ended is her condition the reason of all, adopting then a rational view rather than emotional attitude to her problems.
