Answer»

Answer:

                           Saint PETER

Saint Peter was a great saint who did exemplary work in the spread of Christianity. He was ONE of the twelve DISCIPLES of JESUS. In the poem ‘LEGEND of Northland’ one of his earthly life incidents has been portrayed, which has become a legend. He was living a strict ascetic life for heavenly pursuits. He fasted, prayed and preached a lot; and for subsistence he depended upon alms. Once tired after travelling, he reached a cottage where the owner was baking cakes; feeling hungry as he was he asked for a cake. The owner was a greedy kind of woman; she was too possessive about her cakes to be given them in alms. Saint Peter read her greed and grew angry. He cursed her to become a woodpecker, and the woman immediately transformed.
