In lines 9-22 of "The Pardoner's Tale," the Pardoner reveals two significant flaws: his hypocrisy and greed. He openly admits to selling fake relics and exploiting people's faith for personal profit, demonstrating a lack of genuine morality. Additionally, his contempt for the very sinners he preaches against highlights his insincerity and self-serving nature, as he prioritizes monetary gain over spiritual integrity.
