    ​​​​​​​The General Prologue of Canterbury Tales tells about the Prioress. Her name is Madame Eglantine and she is obsessed with table manners and soft hearted ways. She maintains a secular lifestyle, including keeping lap dogs that she privileges over people, a fancy rosary and brooch inscribed with "Amor vincit omnia" (Love Conquers All).
    Her story is about a child martyr kil    led by Jews, a common theme in Medieval Christianity dealing with the theme of antisemitism.
