Copy and Paste the entire Script here I am Maria from Austria. I was a nun for the church and then I was kicked out of the church. She was sent to Von Trapp family to become a governess. I work as a governess for George Von Trapp and care for his seven ‘previous’ misbehaving children. They soon become accustomed to me as their new governess. Also, I have developed certain feelings for my host George, although he is already engaged to the Baroness. Eventually, he falls in love with me and end up getting married. Talk about why you are going on the trip=I am going on the trip to see Thomas a Becket’s burial site. I am going because I want to rid myself of my previous sins.

Almost a span across the brows, I own; her cloak, I noticed, had a graceful charm. She wore a coral trinket on her arm, a set of beads, the gaudies tricked in green. Whence hung a golden brooch of brightest sheen. On which there first was graven a crowned. “

Pleasant and friendly, doesn’t like it when people kill animals. Kind-hearted. Simple and coy. When she sang with fine intoning through her nose. She did not know the Paris style. She had a special zest. When she east she would wipe her upper lip so clean that no trace grease would be seen. To eat, she reached her hand sedately for meat. Courtly kind of grace. Sympathetic and tend, charitable. Sentimate and tender at heart. Believes in love conquers all.

What you learned about the character: That she is like the modern day whore. She likes to cause trouble and likes to seduce men.

How would your character react to this character. Explain WHY. I think it would be offensive because no one likes to be called a slut or a whore. So I think that my character wouldn't be so mean as to classify the wife of the bath as a whore.

Name of the Character 2: Pardonner

What you learned about the character: He is the lawyer in the story. He profits off of people by using religion. He doesn't think highly of himself because he lies under oath.

How would your character react to this character. Explain WHY. I think she might have a positive view because she is with the church and he follows religion like she does. She might be fond of him because he is just as rebellious as her and doesn't follow the standard rules for being a nun/lawyer.

Name of the Character 3: Reeve

What you learned about the character: He is the professor in the story. He is fed up with the students and feels unappreciated by everyone. He says he just wants to go away and travel/explore. He is incompetent and angry with everyone and his boring life.

How would your character react to this character. Explain WHY. I don't think that the nun would like the reeve because he is incompetent and doesn't respect other people. He probably doesn't interact with people very nicely and is probably not friendly.
