Persephone was a Greek goddess. Goddess of earth and spring growth, daughter of Zeus and Demeter. She became queen of the underworld and Hades wife. She knew the secrets of darkness.
"So the Shadow wail'd.
Then I, Earth-Goddess, cursed the Gods of Heaven.
The man, that only lives and loves an hour,
Seem'd nobler than their hard Eternities.
(...)dark lord accept and love the Sun"
