This tells me that Ralph has a lot of weight on his back. Everyone depends on him which makes him stressed and not want to deal with anything. He doesn't want to be the leader. This moment foreshadow's that something is going to come up and Ralph needs to take the leader position.
Best of luck,
I believe the correct answer is <span>A. "I know your worth and price and my debts by no means slight I swear."
This is the only option that talks about loyalty at all - the quote says that this person knows what he is supposed to do and that he should be loyal to his master, the king. The other options have nothing to do with chivalry, so I would pick A.

<span>“I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and Constitutions. But laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.” -Thomas Jefferson</span>
