Description
In his last allusion in NPT, the Nun's Priest reminds us once again of the preaching tradition with which his tale has been playing. The various narrative perspectives shift so frequently that NPT is more than just an idle tale or a tale about a fox and/or a cock and hen; it plays with the expectations of Romans 15.4, inviting search for hidden meanings or a moral.
