A friar there was, an unjustifiable and a happy, A person that limits things, a very worthy man. In all the orders four is none that can Equal his ways of being friendly and fair language He had made full many a marriage (5) Of young girls, and this at his own cost, Unto his order he was a trustable post. Well liked by all and intimate was he With franklins everywhere in his country, And with the worthy women of the town. (10) For very sweetly did he hear confession And pleasant also was his freeing of guilt. He was an easy man to give penance When knowing he should gain a good pittance For to a begging friar, money given (15) Is sign that any man has been well confusion If one gave he would boast about them He took the man’s sorrow not wrongly. For many a man there is so hard of heart He cannot cry over the pains that hurt a lot. (20) Therefore, instead of crying and of prayer, Men have to give some silver to the poor frères. His scarf was stuck always full of knives from people that hate him And pins, to give to young and pleasing wives. And certainly he kept a happy note: (25) Well could he sing and play upon the rote. At composure of poetry he earned the prizes away. His throat was white as lily of the may; Yet strong he was as any champ. In towns he knew the bar, everyone, (30) And every host and happy waitress also Better than baggers and lepers did he know. For unto no such right man as he Accorded it, as far as he could see, The have sick lepers for acquaintances (35) There is no honest way to have advantages In dealing with such poor stricken curs; It’s with the rich and with big supply ship. And so, wherever profit might rise, Nicely he was and humble in men’s There was no other man so virtuous. He was the finest beggar of his house; A certain district being farmed to him, None of his brethren dared to walk up to its rim;

A Friar in Chaucer's opinion are the scum of the world because they take money for forgiving there sins. How they take money to pretend to help people. Men have to give some silver to the poor frères. None of his brethren dared to walk up to its rim; His scarf was stuck always full of knives from people that hate them. even though they are thought of as scum they are still proud of them and there heritage. **Written and Directed by Jordan Mock**
