What do these lines from stanza 5 reveal about the Pardoner? I stand up like a scholar in a pulpit,

And when the ignorant people all do sit,

And tell a hundred false japes, less or more.

O A The Pardoner is an unhappy person

B. The Pardoner dislikes lying to his congregants.

O C. The Pardoner is condescending.

D. The Pardoner thinks it's futile to try to preach to people who are too simple to understand his sermons.
