Question
These “mopping and mowing” characters are seen as ids (“eeds”) that offer art and sensual pleasure to women writers in The Madwoman in the Attic. These characters accost a woman who “stood, / Like a lily in a flood” and “would not open lip from lip” before tossing her a coin. After giving the “gold upon [her] head” to these characters, a woman stops hearing them in the “mossy glen” after saying “We must not (*) look at” these characters. These characters, who have a “rat’s pace” and a “cat’s face” and lead to the death of Jeanie, cry “morning and evening” in the poem in which they offer “apples and quinces, lemons and oranges.” These characters clamor “Come buy, come buy” to entice the sisters Laura and Lizzie. For 10 points, name these characters who run a “Market” in a Christina Rossetti poem. ■END■
