Detailed explanation-1: -The old lady tried, again and again, to bake a too small cake for Saint Peter. But the size of the cake always appeared to her bigger and the lady was even unable to give this cake to the saint. Was this answer helpful?
Detailed explanation-2: -The woman in the poem has been shown as highly stingy, miserly, greedy, and mean by nature. Whenever she took out the cake from the hearth, they appeared to be larger than the original size. Hence, she baked a very small cake for Saint Peter.
Detailed explanation-3: -Saint Peter asked the old lady for a piece of cake. The lady behaved miserly and kept decreasing the size of the cake. At last, she did not give him anything to eat. Was this answer helpful?
Detailed explanation-4: -Complete answer: The miserly woman thought the cake she was preparing was too big to give away to charity, so she kneaded the dough again and created a smaller one, but she didn’t have the heart to give it away either. Saint Peter is enraged by the woman’s behaviour and curses her, turning her into a woodpecker.
Detailed explanation-5: -The woman, who was very greedy, did not wish to part with her cakes as she felt they were too large to be given away. So she made a small cake for him, but, that too, seemed to her too big to be given away. In the end, she made a very small and thin cake.
