[25 marks]
From The Nun’s Priest’s Tale
‘Thou shalt namoore, thurgh thy flaterye,
Do me to singe and winken with min eye;
For he that winketh whan he sholde see,
Al wilfully, God lat him nevere thee!’
‘Nay,’ quod the fox, ‘but God yeve him
meschaunce
That is so undiscreet of governaunce
That jangleth whan he sholde holde his pees!’
Lo, swich it is for to be recchelees,
And necligent, and truste on flaterye!
But ye that holden this tale a folye,
As of a fox, or of a cok and hen,
Taketh the moralitee, goode men.
For Seint Paul seyth that al that writen is,
To oure doctrine it is ywrite, iwys.
Taketh the fruit, and lat the chaf be stille.
Now, goode God, if that it be thy wille
(As seyth my lord), so make us alle goode men,
And bringe us to thy heighe blisse! Amen.

0 2 Poetry Anthology: Comedy
Explore the significance of the endings of poems to the comedy of Poetry Anthology:
Comedy.
You must refer to Tam o’Shanter. A Tale and at least one other poem.
In your answer you need to analyse closely the poets’ authorial methods and include
comments on the extract below.
[25 marks]
From Tam o’Shanter. A Tale
Now, do thy speedy utmost, Meg,
And win the key-stane of the brig;
There at them thou thy tail may toss,
A running stream they dare na cross.
But ere the key-stane she could make,
The fient a tail she had to shake!
For Nannie, far before the rest,
Hard upon noble Maggie prest,
And flew at Tam wi’ furious ettle;
But little wist she Maggie’s mettle –
Ae spring brought off her master hale,
But left behind her ain gray tail:
The carlin claught her by the rump,
And left poor Maggie scarce a stump.
Now, wha this tale o’ truth shall read,
Ilk man and mother’s son, take heed:
Whene’er to drink you are inclin’d,
Or cutty-sarks run in your mind,
Think, ye may buy the joys o’er dear,
Remember Tam o’ Shanter’s mare.
