The Comparison's Tale

I found a lot of similarities between my tale and others shared in class. Specifically, I felt like Serena’s group had a tale that paralleled ours the best. In the Miller’s tale she presented there seemed to be adultery and unlawful acts committed. This reminded me of the cheating and sneaking around that happened in the Skipper's tale. I also noticed that in both tales the woman was the one who cheated on her husband and not the other way around. Another similarity is that in both tales the characters never seemed to receive consequences for their actions. Most of the characters Chaucer wrote about seemed too gullible to ever convict someone of their crime.
