  7. The Millers Tale While Nicholas and Alisoun lie together, the foppish and fastidious parish clerk, Absolon, who is also deeply attracted to Alisoun and believes her husband to be away, appears kneeling at the bedchamber's low "shot-wyndowe" (privy vent) and asks Alisoun for a kiss. In the darkness, she presents her "hole" (bottom) at the window and he "kissed her naked arse full savorly". He realises the prank and goes away enraged. He borrows a red hot “poker”. Returning, he asks for another kiss, intending to burn Alison. This time Nicholas, who had risen from bed to go to the privy, sticks his own backside out the window and breaks wind in Absolon's face. The furious suitor thrusts the coulter "amidde the ers" (between the cheeks) burning Nicholas' "toute" (anus) and the skin "a hands-breadth round about".
