Dante Gabriel Rossetti - Aspecta Medusa (for a Drawing)
Work rating: Low

Andromeda, by Perseus sav`d and wed, 
Hanker`d each day to see the Gorgon`s head: 
Till o`er a fount he held it, bade her lean, 
And mirror`d in the wave was safely seen 
That death she liv`d by. 

Let not thine eyes know 
Any forbidden thing itself, although 
It once should save as well as kill: but be 
Its shadow upon life enough for thee.
