The theme discussed in "The Nun's Priest's Tale" is flattery.
Flattery is what made the fox catch the rooster, and then flattery is what gave the rooster the opportunity to escape certain death at the hands of that very fox.

The theme discussed in "The Nun's Priest's Tale" is flattery. When Chanticleer met the fox, he was frightened. The fox then assured that he is bringing no harm and flattered Chanticleer by telling him that his voice is as merry as those of the angels God has given them, and the naive rooster easily believe the fox's flattery.
