Match the lines from the canterbury tales to the characters they describe.

Prioress- Her greatest oath was but By Saint Eloy! And she was known as Madam Eglantine.

Dishevelled, save for cap, his head all bare. 
As shiny eyes he had as has a hare.
A voice he had that bleated like a goat. (Pardoner)

A lover and a lusty bachelor, With locks well curled, as if they'd laid in press (Squire)

Though so illustrious, he was very wise 
And bore himself as meekly as a maid. 
He never yet had any vileness said (Knight)

He had but little gold within his coffer;But all that he might borrow from a friend (Clerk)

to ride about the world, loved chivalry, Truth, honor, freedom and all courtesy (Knight)

Right threadbare was his overcoat; for he had got him yet no churchly benefice (clerk)

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.
