Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
The lines describing the time of the year are:
When April with his showers sweet with fruit ----- 1
The drought of March has pierced unto the
root ---------2
When Zephyr also has, with his sweet breath, ----------5
Quickened again, in every holt and heath, ----------------6
Then do folk long to go on pilgrimage ---------------------13
Chaucer focuses on these sensory details because he is trying to emulate some Latin and Greek authors who introduce their poems by creating inspiration through a muse. Chaucer then chooses to create inspiration by describing a natural phenomenon of the earth replenishing itself.
From the lines above, the season of the year is spring just after winter. The description implies spring as a symbol of rebirth and new life. A time when the earth replenishes itself after the dry air of winter, a time when there is rain, fresh air and when people long to go on pilgrimage.
