The poem "Ozymandias" is a poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley. As most poetry, it is written in verse. However, if we were to paraphrase the poem in prose, it would look something like this:

<em>I met a traveller from a land with an old history, and he told me the following: "There are two legs made of stone buried in the desert. Close to these legs, partly hidden by sand, is the shattered face of a statue. You can tell that the face has a wrinkled lip and a sneer of command, which shows that the sculptor was skilled enough to transmit the personality of the model to the stone. On the pedestal of the statue, you can read the following words: </em>

<em>'My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;</em>

<em>Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!'</em>

<em>However, all around the remains, nothing else is to be found. Time has destroyed everything, and the wreck that we find is surrounded by bare space and sand that stretches far away."</em>

Heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: 'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.

How does the excerpt satirize the clergy?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

By revealing the clergy's vindictive abuse of power.

Explanation:

Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales" is a collection of stories told by a group of pilgrims on their way to Canterbury. The given excerpt is from "Prologue to the Pardoner's Tale" where the clergy talks of his 'job' of pardoning people but as a means to profit from them.

In the given excerpt, the pardoner reveals how he used his clergy position to 'attack' those who criticize him. His victims <em>"can't escape slander and defamation"</em>, which he admits is <em>"how [he] deals with people who annoy [him]"</em>. This reveals how the pardoner used the guise of being holy and virtuous to attack his enemies or anyone criticizing him. This shows the vindictive abuse of power by the clergy.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
