In retrospect, Geoffrey Chaucer exploited many different literary forms to create a cohesive story line. Personification is used to focus our feelings on the character of Death as a living being rather than a process. Chaucer use irony to teach a lesson to the readers. Symbolism is used to relate the lesson to our lives. With these factors all combined it creates a story which we can relate to even today because greed is universal.
