    Chaucer uses irony to describe the faults and shortcomings of all the pilgrims from the clerical estate. Chaucer satirizes the prioress as being an example of submission and poverty, in contrary sings about how she is affected in her mannerism. Chaucer states in the irony that she wears "A coral trinket on her arm". Chaucer also satirizes the monk who as a monk ignore the vows of the humility and poverty. Chaucer describes him as "Sparing no expenses" and dress luxuriously.

    Hence, in "The Prologue" of Canterbury Tales, flaws that are attributed to the church based on the description of the prioress and the monk is disregard of the needy.
