Geoffrey Chaucer

Geoffrey Chaucer (1342-1400)
“And now, good people, pay attention all.
See how Dame Fortune quickly changes side
And robs her enemy of hope and pride!”

  • From The Canterbury Tales (The Nun’s Priest’s Tale) by Geoffrey Chaucer, translated to modern English by Nevill Coghill (Penguin Classics, 2003).
