The song they sing, their greed, and their intimacy have made critics refer to them as the villains of the Canterbury Tales. However, it must be noted that the churchmen who meet at the Tabard, with one shining exception - the Parson - do not live up to their ideals, but display, instead, their worldliness in the same way, if not exactly to the same degree, as our iniquitous couple. Description: This is the text of a lecture given to the British Culture Association at the Library of The Foundation for International Studies of the University of Malta in March 1988.

Abstract: The town of Paola lies on the south-western side of the Grand Harbour. The area received considerable attention under the Order especially when Grand Master Antoine de Paule founded a new village so as to avoid over-population in Valletta and the Three Cities: Vittoriosa, Senglea, and Cospicua. In recent years building and industrial developments have almost made Paola and neighbouring Marsa fuse into one whole region and have destroyed a great number of archaeological sites, particularly since the 1940s. This article discusses a great number of archaeological sites, such as cisterns, tombs and other architectural features found in the Paola area.
