And honoured everywhere for worthiness; At Alexandria, he, when it was won - <em>Knight</em>. Knight is a siginificant character in the book. He has many qualities, but four of the them is emphasized in the book. He is worthy for this name because of the good qualities.  

Of courtliness, and stately manners took; And would be held worthy of reverence - <em>Prioress</em>. Prioress tries hard to seem courtly.

In wisps hung down such locks as he'd on head; But as to hood, for sport of it, he'd none  - <em>Pardoner</em>. Pardoner sells official church pardons and the lines is a reference to this act.

A lover and a lusty bachelor, With lock well curled, as if they'd laid in press - <em>Squire</em>. Squire is a young, handsome man as described in the lines who accompanies the Knight in his adventures.

juin [17]
Scarlett can't remember anything before the age of four. That is, until she meets and inevitably falls for Noah, the gorgeous and mysterious new boy at school who is hiding a major secret of his own --- his family members are part of a potentially murderous cult called Eternal Light. And they want Scarlett. When a car accident suddenly jogs Scarlett's childhood memories, Noah has to decide where his true loyalties lie --- with his family or with the girl he wasn't supposed to fall for.
