| Notes | This is poem about the plight of a young sex worker, who appears to have been strangled in this poem. The poem might have been based upon a real-life event, but this isn't specified in the poem. The loss of the girl's youth and innocence is highlighted in the poem, and the speaker of the poem addresses the girl directly, lamenting her death and sympathising with her plight in life. |
