In lines 320–338, of "The Wife of Bath's Tale" what do comments about gentleness and poverty reveal about society at the time Chaucer was writing?

The lines show that in the society in which Chaucer lived, kindness was associated with poverty, while avarice was associated with wealth.

Explanation:

Through the interpretation of the lines, we can see that the poet sends greed to rich people, because as they do not know the need, they do not know compassion and kindness and that is why they are petty. They have a lot, but what they have is superficial, because they are spirits are empty.

However, kindness is associated with poor people, who know what it is like to be in need and to prevent other people from going through it, are kind and share what little they have. These people, besides having a lot, are rewarded, because God will not let them lack anything.
