Indeed, in Chaucer’s the Wife of Bath’s Tale, is the story of an Arthurian knight that raped a young woman and was sentenced to death. Queen Guinevere convinces King Arthur to let her choose a different punishment. The Knife has to find the answer to the question of what women most want. The knife interrogates many different women but gets many different answers. Finally, he meets an old woman who agrees to tell him if he promises to do what she will later ask of him.
