THE COMPARISON'S TALE

To me, there seemed a difference between the tales that were presented to the class and the one my group read. The Physician's Tale wasn't even about the Physician mostly. It was about his daughter, and how his daughter was this girl whom everyone praises to be precious and sweet. The judge of the town even had an interest in her. But, the part that I read was about how Chaucer was telling the Physician that he should be very diligent in raising his daughter because when she grows up to be a women and is taken by her future husband, then he will have no governance over her. Now, the other tales that were presented in class had a consistent theme of adultery which is extremely different to the tale my group read.
