Monk

Monk

media type="custom" key="3628583"

Hi my name is monk; I have a horse and like to go hunting. People say that I am fat and don’t really take my job as a monk well at all. I am a manly man I do hard work, but the things I do contrast to my job as a monk. Many people believe that due to the fact that I am a monk I should not hunt and do normal sport activities. Chaucer likes me but doesn’t think that I do a good job at my profession. Chaucer is sarcastic when he says that I am a good monk because he later says that I hunt and ride horses which is showing signs of not being a good monk.
