The Comparisons Tale
My group read the Merchant Tale, which I think can be related to the Lawyer Tale. In the Merchant Tale, Januarie is blind. He finds a wife, but she cheats on him without him knowing because he is blind. The Gods see this and grant him the ability to see again. So essentially his life gets a lot better. I think this can relate to the Lawyer Tale because in this story Constance goes through a rough time where she is broken up from her husband, the King. Then at the end of the story she has a boy and the King brings her back home. Her son then becomes king. The main character in both of these stories start out with some problems, but then by the end of the story have pretty good lives.
