Question

The poet, Phoebe Cary, in the poem ‘A Legend of the Northland’ tells a

story to her readers, but she says “I don’t believe ‘tis true”. Why,

according to you does she use such contradiction?​

Answer 1

THE POET PHOEBE CARY SAID THAT SHE DON'T BELIEVE THIS TRUE BECAUSE SAINT PETER CURSED THE WOMEN AND SHE BECAME A WOODPECKER. HE DON'T BELIEVE IN MAGICAL THINGS. I THINK THAT THAT'S WHY SHE USED THIS CONTRADICTION.
