Veamos en este poema cómo le surge el arquetipo <strong>de</strong>l<br />

pezón envenenante : <strong>la</strong> sierpe, asociada al <strong>de</strong>stazamiento<br />

y a <strong>la</strong> <strong>de</strong>voración:<br />

THE BALLOON<br />

Toads are gnawing at my feet.<br />

Take them off me quick, 1 pray!<br />

WORMS MY JUICY LIVER EAT.<br />

Take the awful beast away!<br />

VIPERS MAKE MY BOWELS THEIR MEAT.<br />

FETCH A CUNNING KNIFE AND SLAY!<br />

Kill the tadpoles in my lung,<br />

And the woodlice in my spine,<br />

And the BEAST THAT GNAWS MY TONGUE,<br />

And the weasel at my chine.<br />

And the hor<strong>de</strong> of ad<strong>de</strong>rs young<br />

That around mine entrails twine!<br />

Come, DISSECT ME! RIP THE SKIN!<br />

TEAR THE BLEEDING FLESH APART!<br />

See ye all my hellish grin<br />

While the straining vitals smart.<br />

Never mind! Go in and win,<br />

Till you reach my GORY heart!<br />
