Write a script that takes a colon-separated list of items and outputs the items, one per line, to standard output (without the colons).

Throughout The Canterbury Tales, Chaucer demonstrates a remarkable insight into people's foibles, weaknesses, and contradictions, but we notice that certain characters are more rounded and complex than others. Certain characters are presented as real people and others more as caricatures because he wants to satirizises them.

Explanation:

The author takes more time explaining the characters that are more complex and can have reasonable motives to act the way they do and take less time to describe the attitudes of the characters he perceives as empty or shallow. He mocks this last group of people, he makes fun of them because he feels they are empty and basic, that is why he presents them as caricatures. He uses these tales and descriptions of its characters to draw an ironic and critical portrait of English society at the time, and particularly of the Church.
