Answer:

The Host brought a bargain so that all of them will have supper at his inn once again. What this means is that he will actually receive money for twenty-nine meals when they return to his inn.

Explanation:

The Canterbury Tales is narrated by Chaucer. The Host is described by Chaucer as "there was no manly attribute he lacked". He is used to provide contrast among the pilgrims. The Pardoner is described as effeminate and while others are seen as preying on weaker people or falling victim to their own vices.

He gives the pilgrims something that would make them to join the contest that he had proposed. He brings the bargain to them. He also reminds them that they will not find pleasure if they ride alone.

The Canterbury Tales is known to be a collection of 24 stories which was written by Geoffrey Chaucer between 1387 and 1400.

Still, he has to know that this is a less than perfect system--in fact, it is a complete fallacy.
When we think about it, this may make him the most despicable and contemptible of characters. He goes against whatever conscience he may have

Read these lines from "The Flea" by John Donne and answer the questions that follow:
Lady_Fox [76]

Look at this flea, and you'll understand that what you're denying me is very trivial. The flea sucked my blood first and then it sucked your blood. Now our bloods are mingled in the flea's blood. This mixing of bloods is not a sin or anything to be ashamed of. The flea now grows big with a new life inside it. The little bloodsucking flea has achieved much more than what we as lovers have attained.
