The Miller's story takes place on their way to a tavern were each person tells their own story and after the knight gets done with his story the miller offers to go next despite being told that he's drunk and will regret what comes out of his mouth, he begins and tells the most wonderful bawdy tale of a young wife named Alison married to an old jealous carpenter named Jon, with a young student named Nicholas as a lodger who rents out one of their rooms in there house. Nicholas falls for Alison and persuades her to sleep with him when the carpenter leaves on his trip. The rest involves a trick about an impending worldwide flood and that God spoke to Nicholas telling him to have Jon build three boats even though it's a lie so that Alison and Nicholas can sleep with each other again, farting in cleric's faces and red hot pokers struck across backsides.
