[pcottraux]

Here is the modern translation of that:

"Befell that, in that season, on a day
In Southwark, at the Tabard, as I lay
Ready to start upon my pilgrimage
To Canterbury, full of devout homage,
There came at nightfall to that hostelry
Some nine and twenty in a company
Of sundry persons who had chanced to fall
In fellowship, and pilgrims were they all
That toward Canterbury town would ride..."

[Supernatural]

Thanks for the translation. The original, like my tag line, is hard to understand.
