Proper monk should have done:
- Study
- Pray
- Manual Labour
- Fast
- Plain Habit, with hoods
- Chaucerian monk breaks the rules
- Hunts, which is un-holy, owns several types of hunting animals
- Is lavishly dressed in luxurious furs and jewels
- If he enjoys such un-holy activities, why did he become a monk?
- Is he corrupt?
- Wears a golden love knot, which goes against his chastity promise
- He ate swan, which was the food of royalty, does he view himself as a higher rank than he is?
- Similar to the knight aka. leads a lavish life
