The pardoner's tale

English

Answer:

It is different and ironic because the three men went expecting to find death and perhaps have a tragic ending, instead they find gold.

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the lines of reference. Here is the information:

At once the three young rioters began

To run, and reached the tree, and there they found

A pile of golden florins on the ground,

New-coined, eight bushels of them as they thought.

No longer was it Death those fellows sought,

For they were all so thrilled to see the sight,

The florins were so beautiful and bright,

That down they sat beside the precious pile.

The wickedest spoke first after a while.

“Brothers,” he said, “you listen to what I say.

I’m pretty sharp although I joke away.

It’s clear that Fortune has bestowed this treasure

To let us live in jollity and pleasure.

Light come, light go! We’ll spend it as we ought.

God’s precious dignity! Who would have thought

This morning was to be our lucky day?

"The Pardoner's Tale" is one of The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer that tells the story of 3 young men who say they will kill death and as an old man tells them where to find him they go and receive what it seems to be a price, which is the first part of the irony, this irony effect continues in the next section as they become greedy and kill each other for the gold.

Which reason justifying Rainsford’s actions is best supported by Rainsford’s statement, "I am still a beast at bay?”
mart [117]
Rainsford's actions are justified because he will never truly be free until Zaroff is dead. A "beast at bay" refers to someone who is still being hunted. Rainsford will always feel hunted as long as Zaroff is alive, because he knows the 'hunt' will always go on in Zaroff's mind. He has to kill Zaroff so he doesn't have to live in fear.

What is the point of Christmas? explain in 50 words or more
Fittoniya [83]

Answer: Christmas is celebrated to remember the birth of Jesus Christ, who Christians believe is the Son of God. The name 'Christmas' comes from the Mass of Christ (or Jesus). A Mass service (which is sometimes called Communion or Eucharist) is where Christians remember that Jesus died for us and then came back to life.
