"Let Psyche's corpse be clad in mourning weed
And set on rock of yonder hill aloft;
Her husband is no wight of human seed,
But serpent dire and fierce, as may be thought,
Who flies with wings above in starry skies,
And doth subdue each thing with fiery flight.
The Gods themselves and powers that seem so wise
With mighty love be subject to his might.
The rivers black and deadly floods of pain
And darkness eke as thrall to him remain."
-Apuleius, _Asinus aureus_, "Cupid and Psyche"
circa 160 AD. William Adlington, Translator, 1566.

never be merry, and our labour never be done?' But Sinfiotli said: 'I have looked, and lo,
there is death in the cup.'
