How do the settings of "Because I Could Not Stop for Death" and "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" differ? Traveling in the
former represents a journey toward death, while the setting of the latter shows that the speaker is well grounded. The landscape in the former represents a worshipful attitude toward nature, while the natural setting is only symbolic in the latter. The setting of the former is separate from the poem’s themes, while the setting of the latter is merely a backdrop for a larger theme. The countryside setting in the former creates a dreamlike mood, while the setting of the latter creates a mood of artificial happiness.

Explanation:
In the poem "Since I Could Not Stop for Death" passing has been embodied with whom the writer takes a ride towards her grave. In the ballad "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" the writer exhorted its perusers that they can cooperative with God without setting off to the Church. He says that God is present in nature and in each of his creations. Along these lines to meet him one need not visit the Church as it were.
My reason being is because a direct object is a group of words representing the person or thing upon which the action of a verb is preformed or toward which it is directed.
Chaucer uses satire in his characterization of the Pardoner to criticize the Church. The Pardoner's sermon against greed humorously contrasts with his exaggerated greediness. Chaucer creates such an excessively greedy character to draw attention to real corruption in the Church and to bring about change.
