In "The Canterbury Tales," by Geoffrey Chaucer, a large group of twenty-nine travelers is headed to Canterbury on a pilgrimage. They intend to worship at the shrine of Saint Thomas a Becket. Most of them are members of the middle class, but there are also some nobles, some clergy, and a few peasants.
There are ten members of the clergy included in the group. They include
- The Prioress
- The Monk
- The Friar
- The Nun
- The Priest
- The Cleric
- The Parson
- The Summoner
- The Pardoner
- The Canon
