The Tale

I like the wife of the bath’s tale among the other tales because the story tells us about what women most desire. There are many answers in that question like money, honor, jolliness, looks, sex and remarriage. But one old lady answer that women most desire is to be considered discreet and secretive it’s true because not all women can keep a secret. And I also like the old lady because she will do everything for the knight even to change her character. The knight is forced to marry the old lady because he makes a promise to her. He didn’t want to marry the old lady because she is ugly and too old. But in the end they live haply ever after. And the old lady become completely obedient to her husband. The old lady change her character but not her personality. Like in the saying “don’t judge the book by its cover.” It says that don’t judge a person on his or her appearance but by her personality even if she is ugly.
