"The Tale of Melibee" is one of The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer. This is the second tale in the collection told by Chaucer himself. After being interrupted by the host Harry Bailly, Chaucer launches into one of the longest and some would say most boring of all the tales. While some scholars have treated the tale as a joke, it is a faithful rendering of the Liber consolationis et consilii by Albertanus of Brescia and is no less serious than the articles of faith laid out later in "The Parson's Tale". Chaucer seemingly tells this story in revenge, as his first story, Sir Thopas, was interrupted and compared to a turd. Complaining of Sir Thopas's lewedness, Bailly requests a prose tale with doctryne. In response, Chaucer tells The Tale of Melibee, which is exactly that. Bailly, seemingly pleased with this tale, says he wishes his wife had heard it as she might learn something from Dame Prudence.
