Wisdom is the strength of honor and ability applied in the service of just causes. Justice is the heart of the Measure and the soul of a Knight of the Rose.
Thoses to whom justice is due: all beings regardless of their stations, positions, or beliefs have equal claim to compassion under the Measure.
Acts befitting a Knight of the Rose include these: taking compassion on the less fortunate, sacrificing one's life for the sake of others, giving no thought to one's own safety in defense of the Knighthood and Home, protecting the lives of fellow Knights, seeing that no life is wasted or sacrificed in vain.
Responsibilities of a Knight of the Rose: to fight for justice without regard to personal safety or comfort, to never submit to any evil foe, to sacrifice all in the name of honor, their Home, and the Order.
To be granted or taken away by the King and Queen themselves and/or the Prelate. The Member need not be of Pembrokeshire to be granted Knighthood of the Order. One's acts can speak for them.
