Read the excerpt from The Canterbury Tales. I preach just as you’ve heard me say; and tell
A hundred taradiddles more as well.
And then I do my best to stretch my neck
And bob my head in every direction
Over the folk, now this way, and now that,
Just like a pigeon sitting on a barn.
Both hands and tongue are busy, and so quick
That it’s a joy to watch me at my work.

How does the excerpt satirize pardoners?

by stating that they are lazy when they talk to parishioners
by illustrating their sinful behavior outside the pulpit
by suggesting that their sermons are scripted performances
by implying that they are unwilling to learn from their mistakes

What is the significance of the above statement in relation to the play’s conclusion? oedipus treats his inferiors poorly but ultimately grants them the same respect he grants to nobility. while teiresias appears to be mocking oedipus, the real message is one of warning about the forces working against the king. oedipus earns great fame for answering the riddle of the sphinx but ultimately loses his crown to a common man. just as oedipus is unable to conceive that he has done wrong in the past, he is unable to imagine that his enviable position is impermanent.
