The famous line from the General Prologue and something to aspire to for the rest of us.
In terms of meaning 'veray' is clearly 'very', 'parfit' you can understand from the French 'parfait' for 'perfect' and 'gentil' again from the French 'gentil' for 'kind' although some translate it as 'gentle'.
So, 'He was a very perfect gentle knight.'
