I dare say I have a most extreme hard choice to make. For the criteria I have made only one of these two stories have proven themselves better than the other. The Choosing of which one is the only problem I had. The Wife of Bath's And the Pardoner's Tale were so close on a string, it had my mind spinning. The Wife of Bath's Tale is the obvious choice for me, for I fear that The Pardoner's Tale was short of the criteria by one thing, good morality.

The knight finds an old women who tells him what it is, complete submission of their spouse. The knights life is saved when he announced those words to the queen. He then must marry the ugly old lady who gets complete control over the knight and in return she transforms into a young faithful wife. Even the knight in this tale was happy in complete submission. The only difference between me and that knight is the knight gave in completely. See I would use that knowledge to get what I want, wouldn't any other sane man.

To hear a story once again of these magical things makes my heart jump up and down. And the way each person looked at the Wife of Bath with their wide eyes makes me feel like they too feel the same about this fairy tale told. It's people like the
