Read the excerpt from the canterbury tales.

but, sirs, there’s one thing i forgot to add:
i’ve got relics and pardons in my bag
as good as anybody’s in england,
all given to me by the pope’s own hand.
if any here should wish, out of devotion,
to make an offering, and have absolution,
let them come forward now, and kneeling down
humbly receive my blessing and pardon.

what feature of medieval life is reflected in the passage?

the pope’s authority
society’s class distinctions
the rule of a monarch
