She plans to confess her crimes.
Answer:
She wants to gain control of the situation.
Explanation:
In the text above we can see that the officer is totally out of control, shouting and making a scandal in front of Miep, who remains calm and focused, without reacting to all the shouting that the officer is emitting. Miep does this to keep control of the situation in her hands and to stand in favor of her actions, showing courage and showing that she doesn’t tackle anything, more than that, when taking control of the situation Miep shows that she is correct and that there is no need for despair and scandals when you are correct.
The tone of the Wife, as she narrates the knight's wedding, is conversational and directly addresses to the readers. This kind of tone helps readers to connect more deeply to the text and understand the narration in a better way. Pacing technique is also employed in the narrative. In some sections between the narrative, we can also notice an enthusiastic and exuberant tone in the voice of the Wife.
Moreover, this direct approach in the narration is balanced with a certain chronology for engaging the readers’ mind and connects it with the flow of the actions taking place in the plot. Here, Chaucer uses iambic pentameter and, at instances, breaks this motion for utilizing the effect of drama in the tale.
