However, the Yeoman is a devil, so he also claims to be a bailiff. ]]> 2018-05-31 02:48:15 UTC https://padlet.com/anthony_vinciguerra/9u84fdvwpzej/wish/264678559 anthony_vinciguerra https://padlet.com/anthony_vinciguerra/9u84fdvwpzej/wish/264679125 In the essay, Chaucer's Friar: A Portrait of Immoralty, the author takes a point against the Friar claiming that he is a man of very low moral standards. The author begins by explaining that the narrator described him to be a snob, computed by greed, and that he acts in un-Christian ways to prove that he is corrupt in nature. I agree with the author in this scenario because the Friar clearly shows that he is corrupt by selling religious "favors" to people. In that time period, the sale of these was considered corrupt clergy by all. Furthermore, he performs many other acts and fraternizes with the rich rather than the poor, leading us to believe that he is, in fact, a man of low moral standards.  ]]> 2018-05-31 02:52:41 UTC https://padlet.com/anthony_vinciguerra/9u84fdvwpzej/wish/264679125 anthony_vinciguerra https://padlet.com/anthony_vinciguerra/9u84fdvwpzej/wish/266099514

This picture shows the Friar, from The Friar's Tale, dressed in his fairly new looking clothing. This is because he is supposed to be poor, but he pockets all of the money he makes from begging.

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!]]> 2018-06-07 12:53:29 UTC https://padlet.com/anthony_vinciguerra/9u84fdvwpzej/wish/266101912 anthony_vinciguerra https://padlet.com/anthony_vinciguerra/9u84fdvwpzej/wish/266102784 The Swirl of Greed by Amitava Sur

Knowledge teaches us 
How much is our need
Vices inundate 
In the swirl of greed.

Increasing knowledge 
Lessens the needs
Guides the soul 
Towards wisdom and peace

Vices are like 
Cancerous germs
Increases the greed 
To destroy oneself. 

Goal of life
Is to attain love and peace
With greed 
We can never reach that place.

Greed is 
Like a hunting trap
It allures, attracts 
And ruins at last.

Increasing knowledge 
Lessens the needs
Guides the a soul 
Towards wisdom and peace
