In conclusion, the role of the gold coins was being the three’s adversary who led them to betrayal as the story progressed. In the end, all three suffered: “Thus these two murderers received their due,/ So did the treacherous young poisoner too” (Chaucer 131).

The prologue starts with a bang and sets the tone for the book, so you expect a fast-paced ride. The book lays out a bit of Grant’s background and how his son-in-law came to work with him.

Troubled and suffering from poverty, a man struggles with the chance at great wealth and proving his extraordinary place in the world.

Which leads him to come off as a psychopath because of the details and the reason behind killing the old man.
