Once, when the good Saint PeterLived in the world below,And walked about it, preaching,Just as he did, you know,He came to the door of a cottage,In travelling round the earth,Where a little woman was making cakes,And baking them on the hearth;And being faint with fasting,For the day was almost done,He asked her, from her store of cakes,To give him a single one.Questions :(1) What did Saint Peter do?(2 ) What did Saint Peter see in a cottage?(3) Give the meaning of ‘the day was almost done. |

Answer» (1) As was the practice in those days, Saints went from place to place preaching religion, Saint Peter was also doing the same going from one place to another on foot. (2) Standing at the door of a cottage, Saint Peter saw a little woman making cakes by baking them on the hearth. (3) The meaning of ‘the day was almost done’ means ‘the day had been over’ or ‘it was the time after sunset’. |
