'A Legend of Northland' is a ballad written by Phoebe Cary. It deals with the Northland, a polar reigon covered with snow.

Once upon a time, Saint Peter was on his usual round of travelling and preaching people. Suddenly he felt hungry. He came across an old cottage where a little old woman was baking cakes. Saint Peter approached the woman and asked for some cakes to eat. She started to bake a small cake for Saint Peter. But when it was done she found it to0 big to be given for free. So she decided to bake an even smaller cake. This went on and on till she made a paper thin wafer for Saint Peter. She even did not give it to Saint Peter as she was too greedy to part with a single morsel of food. This angered him. He said that she did not deserve to dwell in human form. He made her a bird to live searching for scant food in the forest. Besides, she would bore all day in the dry, hard wood. Finally, the greedy woman changed into a woodpecker with ugly features The poem conyeys the message that one should not be greedy and always help the needy.
