The pardoner's tale
reread lines 167_182. what is ironic about the discovery? how is it different from what you expected?

It is different and ironic because the three men went expecting to find death and perhaps have a tragic ending, instead they find gold.

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the lines of reference. Here is the information:

At once the three young rioters began

To run, and reached the tree, and there they found

A pile of golden florins on the ground,

New-coined, eight bushels of them as they thought.

No longer was it Death those fellows sought,

For they were all so thrilled to see the sight,

The florins were so beautiful and bright,

That down they sat beside the precious pile.

The wickedest spoke first after a while.

“Brothers,” he said, “you listen to what I say.

I’m pretty sharp although I joke away.

It’s clear that Fortune has bestowed this treasure

To let us live in jollity and pleasure.

Light come, light go! We’ll spend it as we ought.

God’s precious dignity! Who would have thought

This morning was to be our lucky day?

"The Pardoner's Tale" is one of The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer that tells the story of 3 young men who say they will kill death and as an old man tells them where to find him they go and receive what it seems to be a price, which is the first part of the irony, this irony effect continues in the next section as they become greedy and kill each other for the gold.

a simile is first defined as a type of speech that uses one thing or phrase with comparisons to things of an unrelated kind, often in order to make a more vivacious description. so of the phrases above, only the last one (i swear she cast a shadow white as stone) would be considered a simile, as a shadow white as stone takes two unrelated things and uses them in an interesting way.
