I believe that the best answer for this question is an allusion. An allusion is a literary device where a writer refers to some other work of literature in their own work of literature in order to make some point or add emphasis. Here, T.S. Eliot is referring to Hamlet by Shakespeare. The speaker is asserting that he is not indecisive, as Hamlet is. Rather, he is like Polonius, a servant of the king in Hamlet. Polonius is a very cautious character but is overall fairly useless. I hope this helps. Don't forget to make me brainiest.
The pardoner is the last pilgrim to be portrayed in the prologue. His estate belongs to the court of Rome. This gentle pardoner is thought to be worthy of respect; "He had a scholarly look" and "He was an honest person." Nevertheless, his pretension not to care for riches and his being "an unethical man" oppose the positive idea created. The inference that can be made from the excerpt is that he was an unethical man.
