Title :
Chaucer's Prioress and Augur's "Adulterous Woman" [The author briefly points out a reference in Chaucer's description of the Prioress's table manners. It comes from Proverbs 30:20 and concerns the behavior of an adulterous woman. Loney argues that Chaucer is being ironic about the Prioress's attachments to the world. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
