Question

10 lines of a story of a legend of the northland

Answer 1

In this poem, the poetess tells us a story. It is a story of the Northland. At that time, St. Peter lived on the earth. He used to go round the world and preach in his typical manner. One day, he came to a cottage. He saw a woman making cakes. St. Peter had fasted for the whole day. So he was hungry and tired. He asked the woman to give him a cake from her store of cakes.

The woman was very greedy. She made a very small cake for the saint. But when the cake was baking, she thought that it was too large to give away. So she made another one which was smaller even than the first. But when it was ready, she thought that it was also too big to be given. So she made a very small and very thin cake for him. But as she was greedy, she did not want to part with even this cake. She placed it on the shelf.

The Saint Peter saw this and grew angry. He told her, “You are very selfish. You do not deserve to live in the world in human form. You do not deserve food, shelter and fire to keep you warm.” He cursed her to be changed in a bird. She became a woodpecker and flew out of the chimney. In the end, the poetess says that every school going boy has seen her in the wood: She still lives there in the trees. She keeps boring trees for her food all the day.
