| Description: | Goblin Market, poem by Christina Rossetti, published in 1862 in the collection Goblin Market and Other Poems. Comprising 567 irregularly rhyming lines, the poem recounts the plight of Laura, who succumbs to the enticement of the goblins and eats the fruit they sell. Her sister, Lizzie, resists the “fruit-call” as she watches Laura grow sick from her indulgence. At last, Lizzie revisits the goblins’ glen to buy more fruit for Laura and withstands an assault by the malevolent beings without tasting a drop of the “goblin pulp and goblin dew.” Her victory redeems Laura and drives the goblins from the glen. |
