3. Lilith in Modern Literature. 



It may be interesting bibliographically to find out to what ex- 

 tent this legend was known among Occidentals and how much 

 use was made of it in modern literature. Such a compilation 

 may be an interesting piece of work, especially since no attempt 

 seems ever to have been made in this direction. 



The following are a few examples of poetic renderings of the 

 legend or of casual references to it: 



Burton, Robert. Anatomy of Melancholy, 1621, first partition, section 2, 



member i, subsection 2. A digression on the nature of spirits. 

 Goethe. Faust, 1808, Walpurgisnacht, at the end. Compare Bayard Tay- 

 lor's translation, note 141. The passage is also found in Shelley's 



Scenes from the Faust of Goethe.

York Public Library. There is an account of it in Larousse.)
