Book excerpt: The Prince's Progress, and other poems Christina Rossetti Goblin Market: The Prince's Progress and Other Poems by Christina Rossetti. Goblin Market (composed in April 1859 and published in 1862) is a poem, commonly mistaken as a narrative, by Christina Rossetti. Goblin Market tells the adventures of two close sisters, Laura and Lizzie, with the river goblins. Although the sisters seem to be quite young, they live by themselves in a house, and draw water every evening from a stream. As the poem begins, the sisters hear the calls of the goblin merchants selling their fantastic fruits in the twilight. On this evening, Laura, intrigued by their strangeness, lingers at the stream after her sister goes home. (Rossetti hints that the "goblin men" resemble animals with faces like wombats or cats, and with tails.) Longing for the goblin fruits but having no money, the impulsive Laura offers to pay a lock of her hair and "a tear more rare than pearl." Laura gorges on the delicious fruit in a sort of bacchic frenzy. Once finished, she returns home in an ecstatic trance, carrying one of the seeds. At home, Lizzie is "full of wise upbraidings," reminding Laura of Jeanie, another girl who partook of the goblin fruits, and then died at the beginning of winter after a long and pathetic decline. Strangely, no grass grows over Jeanie's grave. Laura dismisses her sister's worries, and plans to return the next night to get more fruits for herself and Lizzie. The sisters go to sleep in their shared bed. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.
