In "The Wife of Bath's Tale," which of part of "The Canterbury Tales," by Geoffrey Chaucer, the Knight is ordered to find out what women most desire. That is how he meets the Wife of Bath. She is a well-off woman who has been married before, so she is quite experienced in love and sex matters. She is also wise, talkative and quarrelsome. Her previous marriages have made her able to supply for herself in a time in which women had little autonomy and strength. As a result, she is used to using her body to manipulate her husbands.
The personification is: “deathly oppressive silence hangs over the house and clings to me as if it were going to drag me into the deepest regions of the underworld”
The extended metaphor is the line from “I wonder from room to room” to “a voice within me cries”, so the last 7 lines (sorry I didn’t feel like writing the quote out).
Anne is forced to stay in the house/attic every day to avoid being discovered. The attic itself is cramped and stuffy, especially with the 8 other people living there. She feels like a caged animal (a caged songbird in this case) because she is never allowed into the outside world.
