Abstract

Its plot forms only a small portion of the Nonnes Preestes Tale. The actual events can be summed up in a brief selection of lines. This succinct narrative is the simple skeletal core which Chaucer fleshed with those extravagances of exemplum, description, amplification, and auctorial comment that give the Tale its special quality, its perpetual vitality and challenge.
