I really liked this tale. I thought it was interesting. Basically, the pardoner is a drunk who preeches to people about sins that he has done. Though, he doesn’t reveal to the people that he has done those sins, he keeps it a secret and makes himself seem to be holyer than thou. He uses bibilical refrences to make his teachings more effective and believable. He preeches that people who lobe money and base their life around money, are the root of all evil. Little do the people know, that he bases his life around money, liquor, and gambling. He contradicts himself multiple times through the tale. The tale is a moral story, but its hard for the reader to believe it. I think that we got a lot of information about the Chaucterian style and time period.
