Interpret: what lesson about loyalty does the tale of Sir Bedivere and the sword suggest?

Sir Bedivere is one of the most loyal man in the King Arthur's court.

Explanation:

Sir Bedivere was always loyal and kept his loyalty his entire life. He was known not only for his loyalty but because he was a handsome, and strong man. He obeyed KIng Arthur's orders and accepted his commands.

In the Matter of Britain, the story of Sir Bedivere and the sword is a lesson of loyalty because Sir Bedivere questioned the order of King Arthur and as a consequence, Arthur was not healed by the lady on the lake. In this story King Arthur order Sir Bedivere, the Knight of the Round Table, to throw the sword in the lake; however Sir Bedivere did not listen until King Arthur tell him three times since he didn't know the lady on the lake was going to heal King Arthur. If Sir Bedivere had been loyal to the mandate from the beggining, King Arthur would had a better chance to be healed.
