- Published
- Chaucer Review 23 (1988): 129-39.
- Description
- The Physician's misunderstanding of his tale adds to the comedy of CT. He concludes the tale with a warning to forsake sin, not realizing that--like Appius, who betrays the innocence of Virginia--he betrays the innocence of those who come to him "in pestilence."
