The excerpt attached to the question above is given below:


Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey.

Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north

A storm against the ships, and driving veils of squall

moved down like night on land and sea.

The bows went plunging at the gust;

sails cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.

We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,

unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:

then two long days and nights we lay offshore.

Which of the following lines best presents the dominant moral of "The Monk's Tale"?A. He was a soldier with a manly heart / So dear to him was honest decency
B. Thus Fortune with a light / Turn of her wheel brings men from joy to sorrow.
C. He swore to sin no more, until the hour / Of death when at last he was interred, / He recognized God's mercy and his power.
D. And then he saw that of his own perdition / He was sole author and he fled away.

Answers

The correct answer is B. Thus Fortune with a light / Turn of her wheel brings men from joy to sorrow.

The Monk's Tale is a bit different from all other plays in the Canterbury Tales - it is rather a collection of very short stories (17 of them) about various characters from literature and history who were played by Fortune. The moral of his story is that fate is fickle, and that you cannot control it. Your destiny decides what will happen to you, and there's nothing you can do about it.

I believe the correct answer is B) Thus Fortune with a light / Turn of her wheel brings men from joy to sorrow.
Because the point of the Monk's tale is that fortune is fickle, one day you are the luckiest man alive, the next you lose everything and you die.
