A parable is most commonly known as a short story which contains or portrays a virtue or principle. It is a short story that serves a purpose to teach. 'The Monks Tale' fits this category because it is in relations to the definition of a parable. It is a short story which teaches the lesson to not confide in worldly riches as all are things are indefinite.
