The Knight's Tale, the longest story in the collection, is complete! I've now switched to entirely Middle English, just referring to the Oxford translation for end notes and occasional clarifications. Chaucer's language is simply so beautiful it deserves to be read in its original.
"This world nys but a thurghfare ful of wo, / And we been pilgrymes, passynge to and fro. / Deeth is an ende of every wordly soore."

Having finished the Prologue again, but in Middle English, we are now into the lengthy Knight's Tale (part 1 of 4 done, in both Modern and Middle English).

General Prologue complete! Such fun, but the clouds of Middle English are on the horizon...
