Wife of Bath's tale
Kuvakäsikirjoitus Teksti
- I hear someone ahead. Who goes there?!
- Alas. The dreaded day of my execution is tomorrow. I still have no response to the queen's challenge.
- It is a group of beautiful ladies. Maybe they know the answer to my troublesome question.
- Sir Knight, my dear, there is nowhere on from here. Tell me what you seek. I know a thing or two in my old age.
- Where did all the pretty ladies go? The only person here is a woman older than my mother.
- If I tell you, do you promise, if within your power, to do what I next require of you?
- Dearest Mother, you are my last hope. Please tell me, what above all things, do women desire the most.
- The thing that women desire the most is to have equal sovereignty as their husbands. Now young knight, be glad and no longer fearful. Your life is safe.
- Yes I swear on my honor. I will do what you request of me if you give me an answer that will let me live.
