The Legend of the North Land

By phoebe Cary 

1. This poem narrates the legend of an old lady who angered Saint Peter because of her greed. 

2. The story is of the Northland area where a lady lives. She was selfish and greedy. 

3. Once Saint Peter was walking around the world and delivering a religious speech to people.

4. One day, the saint reached a woman’s home. She was baking cakes. 

5. The saint was very hungry as he had fasted the whole day.

6. He was also feeling weak. He asked the women to give a single piece of cake to him. The woman was very selfish. 

7. She felt that the cakes she had baked were big ones. Since she did not want to give any of those from the ones she has baked, she baked a new cake.

8. But then she realised that this one was also bigger. So, she took a small dough and rolled it flat. 

9. She made it as thin as a wafer. But, she was not able to give that one also to the saint.

10.  By watching this behaviour of the woman, the Saint got angry. He said that she is not fit to live a human life and cursed her to become a bird. 

11. Following the curse, the woman transformed into a woodpecker bird.

12. Now, she was digging dry wood to get shelter and working hard searching for some food to eat, as birds do.

The Captain and The Falcon were good Friends. ® Use of Single Article with Double Subjects taking that Singular Article common → Singular Verb. E.g.
