“There was no corn—in the wide market-place
All loathliest things, even human flesh, was sold;
They weighed it in small scales—and many a face
Was fixt in eager horror then; his gold
The miser brought; the tender maid, grown bold
Through hunger, bared her scornèd charms in vain.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
