Question

In Flanders there was once a company Of youngsters wedded to such sin and folly As gaming, dicing, brothels, and taverns, Where, night and day, with harps, lutes, and citherns, They spend their time in dicing and in dancing, Eating and drinking more than they can carry; And with these abominable excesses They offer up the vilest sacrifices . . . Which word best characterizes the young people in this passage?

Answer 1

Answer: A word that can best describes these young people is immoral

According to Oxford dictionary immoral refers to the kind of lifestyle or living that doesn't conform to the acceptable standards of morality .

Morality means a person lives a life that has good ethics , they don't do things that society at large considers them to be bad for a person especially for a young person.

The young people above go to taverns( a very bad environment for a young person who can not yet limit their behaviour)they drink excessively and all other sorts of things that have no good results at the end.

Things that are unacceptable for young people in the society things that could even send them to jail because they may not be able to behave wisely after they have immersed themselves in such behaviour.
