In this excerpt, Whitman uses imagery in describing the Captain: "<span>his lips are pale and still". It creates the mixed mood of dignity (still, motionless lips, the same ones that used to move the whole nation with their voice), and fear (they are pale because they are dead, and the future of their cause is uncertain). The connotations used in the diction support this imagery with words and phrases such as "fearful trip", "mournful tread". Another imagery, very similar in working and effect, is "my Captain lies, fallen cold and dead".</span>

The Nun's Priest's Tale
jolli1 [7]

1. The human characteristics of Chanticleer are: happy, proud, arrogant, popular, good looking. Human characteristics of Lady Pertelote are: smart, friendly, courteous, loving. These are ideal characters for a story of courtly love.

2. Many characters use literary allusions from the Bible and classical mythology. These classical allusions are ironic because it is up to the reader to decide which satire and morals they should believe.

3. The Host is a jolly, lively tavern-keeper. The Host's character demonstrates that the main purpose of the pilgrimage lies not in the devout religious act but in the fun that tourists will have along the way. The Nun's Priest is an awkward storyteller. His story of Chanticleer is well crafted and suggests that he es a witty, self-effacing preacher.

4. One important moral is "not be so careless as to trust in flattery". During the tale, he wants to demonstrate that trust is a virtue that one should not give away too soon. The Nun's Priest Tale falls under the gender of beast fable with "moral stories". The Tale has an undoubtedly serious side with serious consequences and also some comic or ironic moments. You can also find a lot of double entendres and thinly veiled dirty jokes to portray lust.
