Answer from: Mintfu2580

The pardoner tells a didactic tale to preach that greed is the root cause of all evil. The three young men he describes are shown as greedy, lecherous, boisterous, and blasphemous. To get across their sinful nature, the pardoner uses words such as pestilence, insolent, evil, gluttony, and treacherous. The tale goes on to show how the men’s greed for money gets them into trouble. Their foolishness is brought out when they proclaim that they will slay Death. The pardoner says the men are “drunken” and full of “rage” when they make this “grisly oath.” The choice of words shows how these three men are shown to be slaves of the seven deadly sins.

"we always see things from the same angle," the boy continued. "it's much less trouble that way. besides, it makes more sense to grow down and not up. when you're very young, you can never hurt yourself falling down if you're in mid-air, and you certainly can't get into trouble for scuffing up your shoes or marking the floor if there's nothing to scuff them on and the floor is three feet away."
