How does the narrator's description of the business
woman suggest that he is an unreliable narrator?

bold was her face, and handsome, florid too.
she had been respectable all her life,
and five times married, that's to say in church,
not counting other loves she'd had in youth,
of whom, just now, there is no need to speak.
- the canterbury tales,
geoffrey chaucer

he calls her "respectable" but then mentions her
many "loves.

he reveals that he is naive when he reports that she
was "five times married."

he doubts his ability to describe the woman
accurately

he implies that he is a liar when he says that she
had 'other in youth."
