- Title: The Clerk
- Artist: Magenta Platypus

Description:
"A clerk from Oxford was with us also,
Who'd turned to getting knowledge, long ago.
As meagre was his horse as is a rake,
Nor he himself too fat, I'll undertake,
But he looked hollow and went soberly.
Right threadbare was his overcoat; for he
Had got him yet no churchly benefice..."
- Chaucer, Canterbury Tales
