This translation of the first two stories from The Canterbury Tales aligns the spelling of Geoffrey Chaucer’s words with the Oxford English Dictionary.
- In the Knight’s tale, the longest and most profoundly philosophical poem of The Canterbury Tales, two rival Theban cousins fight it out for the right to the hand of Hippolyta’s sister.
- In the Miller’s tale, the rudest and funniest of Chaucer’s stories, a scholar’s and a parish clerk’s differing approaches at wooing a carpenter’s wife, parody the tale of the Knight.
