No, the conjunction used in the given excerpt is not correlative.
To determine the type of conjunction, let's analyze the sentence structure. The conjunction "and" is used to connect two independent clauses: "The knight swore to do all this" and "after he had made his peace with his kindred, he set forth to do Sir Galahad's bidding."
In this case, the conjunction "and" is functioning as a coordinating conjunction. Coordinating conjunctions are used to join two or more words, phrases, or clauses of equal grammatical importance. They can be remembered using the acronym FANBOYS: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so.
Therefore, the correct answer is coordinating.
