What did scrooge see when his curtains were opened?

the answer is: tabard inn, southwark.

in "the canterbury tales," by geoffrey chaucer, the twenty-nine diverse group of pilgrims is staying at a tavern in southwark, london, as they are traveling to canterbury. they wish to visit the relics of saint thomas becket in canterbury   cathedral in order to him for his when they underwent necessities.

his tongue, i believe, was bloody and hanging out of his mouth.

he looked as if he were hungry.

he has several wolf-like qualities; a gray coat, sharp claws and yellow fangs.

those eyes made me feel, dear reader, like the end was near.

as i reached for a stick, he moved to the other side of the hill.

panting and hungry, he looked at me, a defenseless human and he snarled.

well i said my prayers, however, he simply turned and limped off. 

hasty generalization
