Reread line 167-182. What is ironic about this discovery? In the pardoners tale
raketka [301]

Answer:

The expected outcome of the scene was that the rioters would meet a monstrous being "Death" but instead, they found gold.

Explanation:

Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales" is a collection of stories told by the traveling pilgrims to Canterbury. One of them was a pardoner who tells the story of the three rioters and their greed.

In "<em>The Pardoner's Tale</em>", three rioters who had done nothing except revel and drink and enjoy were told by one of their servants that his relative had been killed by Death. In drunken anger, they went in search of this person. On the way, they met an old man who told them he's been waiting for Death, and he's just left him under an oak tree. When they reached there, they found no one but instead found eight bushels of gold coins. This is ironic as the expected result will either be a beast or anything that will personify death but instead gold greeted them. Also, it is ironic as this discovery will lead to their deaths later on.
