A portrait of Absolom
In Friday's lesson we looked at the portrait of Absolom. Translate this section using your notes and have a look at the key quotations here. Chaucer mocks this character who has strong aspirations to be a courtly lover himself. Chaucer also invites us to compare him with Nicholas. They are both suitors for Alison's affections... which we know she gives freely. But who do you think she will favour?
