The Knight receives many other responses like woman desire love, wealth, honor, pleausre, etc before the old woman gave him the correct answer.
Explanation:
'The Wife of Bath's Tale' is one of the tales from 'The Canterbury Tales' penned by Geoffrey Chaucer during the later half of the 14th century.
The Wife of Bath tells a tale of a Knight of King Arthur's Court. The Knight is passioned and lusty, in his passion and lust he rapes a maiden whom he finds to be most attrative and beautiful. As a punishment the court decided to behead him, only the Queen and her maidens choose to forgive his punishment if he gives a correct answer to her question that <em>'What do women want more than anything in the world?' </em>
The Knight receives many responses to this question. Many women responded with answers like women desire love, wealth, honor, pleasure, clothings, flattery, and so on before the old woman gave him the correct answer.
Lord and Lady Capulet both have strong emotional reactions to Juliet's refusal to marry Parris. When Juliet gives her answer, Lord Capulet gives her an ultimatum: marry Parris or he'll disown her. Lord Capulet does not have a rational conversation or hear Juliet's concerns. Lady Capulet also reacts emotionally when she refuses to listen to her daughter as well.
