Based on the information provided in the general prologue, readers can conclude that the Friar is a joyous man who all around is content with his life. He is well known by those around him and lives off of their donations.

4. Why is the Summoner referred to as a “pimp?" 

# data[].attributes.body
The Summoner is referred to as a "pimp" because he is a ladies man. He was married to multiple women throughout his years. Due to his value for money and stealing it from others, he uses his charm on women to assist him in robbing others.

In the essay Charity Refused and Curses Uttered in Chaucer's Friar's Tale, the author describes the Summoner as a self centered man who does not feel sympathy for others and their suffering. She describes this as an explanation to his lack of religious beliefs and spiritual nature. This disconnect is displayed when he absentmindedly travels with the beggars, and due to his materialistic nature, focuses on the monetary outcome instead of questioning the beggar’s identity. All around, I agree with the author’s conclusion that the Summoner’s capability of refusing donations supports his spiritual state. Moreover in the tale, the poor actions and decisions of the Summoner reveal how deficient his spiritual state actually is. His failure to oversee the underworld’s demons’ tricks to make deals with the devil shows readers just how much control and power over charity can affect one’s spirituality.

The Man Whose Riches Satisfy His Greed by Solon

# data[].attributes.body
The man whose riches satisfy his greed
Is not more rich for all those heaps and hoards
Than some poor man who has enough to feed
And clothe his corpse with such as God affords.

I have no use for men who steal and cheat;
The fruit of evil poisons those who eat.

Some wicked men are rich, some good men poor,
But I would rather trust in what's secure;
Our virtue sticks with us and makes us strong,
But money changes owners all day long.

Greed is out,
Yes, yes, let’s shout,
Again and again:
Greed is out.
Let’s spout, let’s shout!
Realized pain
And unrealized gain
Are not taxable.
Political contributions
Are not deductible.
No stock options!
The Stock Market
Lost its jacket
And its pants.
Common sense
Must prevail.
No bail, no bail,
For the crooked billionaire;
It is just, it is fair
To lock him up
‘Cause he is at the very top
Of the super-kleptomaniac list.
He is a mad genius;
He killed telepathically,
And he loved fame and money.
What a disgrace!
What a dishonest face!
No bail, no bail,
For such a whale!
Stock him in jail,
Squish him in hell,
Greed is out,
Let’s spout, let’s shout!
