		Sir Ector and Sir Grummore discuss the need for Kay and Art to be 'eddicated', that is, educated.

	CliffsNotes::Le Morte Darthur:Book Summary and Study Guide
		Sir Ector dreams that he and Launcelot leap from a chair onto two horses; Launcelot falls from his horse and then, clothed in a knotted coat and riding on an ass, stops at a well to drink from it, but the water sinks away from him.
		Ector rides on and comes to a rich man’s house where there is a wedding, but he is turned away.
		In Ector’s dream, the chair signifies the royal line from which both Ector and Launcelot are born; Launcelot’s fall means that he has humbled himself; the knotted coat is his humiliation of the flesh; the ass represents his humility; the sinking well refers to God’s grace, now withdrawn from him.

	Mystical-WWW - Arthurian A 2 Z - E
		Ector, in Arthurian legend is described as 'Sir Ector', who was instructed by Merlin not to talk to Arthur of the identity of his true parents when he was still a child, but to raise him as his own son.

	CliffsNotes::The Once and Future King:Book Summary and Study Guide
		The father of the Wart and Kay, Sir Ector is a gruff but lovable father who (like many fathers) wants to raise his boys according to strict rules of conduct and the highest ideas that an “eddication” can offer.
		However, Sir Ector’s idea of education consists of learning “Latin and stuff,” which is a fine pursuit but not the most pressing one for a future king.
		White often uses Sir Ector as a symbol of “merrrie Englande,” an era long past where knights and squires drank port, sang songs of heroic deeds, and attended tournaments.
