8 options: A “His chin no beard had harbored, nor would harbor” B “For in his trunk he had a pillow-case/Which he asserted was Our Lady’s veil.” C “He said he had a gobbet of the sail/St. Peter had the time when he made bold/To walk the waves, till Jesu Christ took hold.” D “For well he knew that when that song was sung/He’d have to preach and tune his honey-tongue.” Save
The correct choice is
"A", "<span>His chin no beard had
harbored, nor would harbor”.

with the hypocrisy or behavior, while other statements can be taken as or
explained as a code of morality or characteristics of the pardoner’s
personality.</span>
