Document Summary
Engl 3p33 lecture 5 goblin market september 22, 2016. Goblins sell cursed fruit and one girl eats it and starts wasting away so her sister goes and tries to save her. Goblins men, they only sell at night and only women buy fruit. Young women shouldn"t be out at night buying fruit, and she shouldn"t be going out having sex with guys because she will waste away and die. Another poem warning women about having sex outside of marriage. Christina rossetti warns against giving in to these desires. Cover your ears you"re a maiden you shouldn"t be listening to them. She pays with her hair and her hair is blonde and symbolizes female sexuality they don"t want money from her they want her body. Sucked and sucked not good for a young woman, big appetite and sexualized. If you showed a healthy appetite then you"re a wild woman who is sexually dangerous.
