The Pardoner´s tale
Storyboard Text
- ¨He was a friend of yours in days of old, And suddenly, last night, the man was slain, Upon his bench, face up, dead drunk again.¨
- your friend died.
- Bruh >:(
- ¨And up they started in their drunken rage And made towards this village which the page And publican had spoken of before. Many and grisly were the oaths they swore, Tearing Christ’s blessed body to a shred; “If we can only catch him, Death is dead!¨
- Ah yes we are ready to go beat up the mass murderer of many villages with our bare hands.
- “Well, sirs,” he said, “if it be your designTo find out Death, turn up this crooked wayTowards that grove, I left him there todayUnder a tree, and there you’ll find him waiting.¨
- Where death at old man?
- Chilling by that tree over there.
- ¨We draw for lots and see the way it goes;The one who draws the longest, lucky man,Shall run to town as quickly as he canTo fetch us bread and wine—but keep things dark—While two remain in hiding here to mark¨
- Okay.
- Go get us food and stuff while we watch the gold.
- Let us kill our friend for a slightly larger amount of money than we are already getting.
- ¨I´ll up and put my dagger through his backWhile you and he are struggling, as in game;Then draw your dagger too and do the same.Then all this money will be ours to spend.¨
- This is such a great idea it is not like we already have more than enough money to be financially stable, especially in the conditions of our current society .
- ¨They fell on him and slew him, two to one.Then said the first of them when this was done,“Now for a drink. Sit down and let’s be merry,For later on there’ll be the corpse to bury.”And, as it happened, reaching for a sup,He took a bottle full of poison upAnd drank; and his companion, nothing loth,Drank from it also, and they perished both.¨
