Peeping Tom

Everyone in the town had kept their doors and windows shut as they were strictly ordered to do so. A tailor by profession Tom could not keep his curiosity under wraps. He peeped at Lady Godiva who was riding a white horse naked. Lady Godiva had a soft heart and always pestered her cruel husband to remit the taxes of the people of Coventry. Her husband irritated one day asked her to ride through the streets of town naked and he will remit the taxes. Lady Godiva took her husband at his word and did the same. And as Tom was struck blind for doing the shameful act of peeping, we got the word Peeping Tom. And the shocked husband of Lady Godiva remitted the taxes.
