2.1 Goblin market

Christina Georgina Rossetti was an English poet, born on December 5, 1830, and wrote the famous poem "Goblin Market" in 1862. She was really into religion, but suffered from depression and other illnesses and died in 1894. Goblin Market was a poem about two sisters,Laura & Lizzie, who would always pass by the goblins selling fruit.They knew it was forbidden but one day Laura gave in and fell ill. Over time, Lizzie couldn't bear to see her sister that way and took the risk of confronting the goblins to buy their fruit and help her out. She was able to take some fruit juice on her body to Laura, and after she tasted it, recovered from her sickness. After that, they never heard the goblins again and were able to tell the story of their sisterly bond to their children.
