The Canterbury Tales: General Prologue & Frame Story The Summoner's Prologue Summary

The Summoner is so angered by the Friar's tale that he stands up in his stirrups shaking like an aspen leaf.
He tells the company he desires only one thing: to be allowed to tale his tale.
The Summoner says that the Friar boasts he knows hell and that is no wonder: friars and devils are never apart.
The Summoner tells a story-within-a-story about a friar:
The story begins with a friar who dreams that an angel guides him through hell.
This friar is surprised that in his tour of hell, he sees no friars, and asks the angel whether friars have so much grace that they don't go to hell.
The angel replies that there are millions of friars in hell, and leads the friar to Satan.
The angel asks Satan to lift his huge tail, and there, in his anus, swarm friars like bees in a hive, coming and going, nestling in Satan's "ers."
The friar wakes from his vision, but after that he quakes for fear, always having Satan's "ers" in his mind.
The Summoner ends his story about the friar by saying that this is the heritage of Friars.
The Summoner declares this the end of his prologue, and begins his tale.
