	Myrrha
		After Myrrha prayed to the gods that she neither live nor die (since the severity of her crime would shock both the living and the dead), the gods turned her into the myrrh tree.
		According to Powell, Myrrha's incestuous love and its horrible consequences for Myrrha and Cinyras is the punishment allotted by Aphrodite in retribution for Cenchreis proclaiming that her daughter was more beautiful than Aphrodite.
		One is that the bark of the tree was split by the sword of Smyrna's (Myrrha's) father.

	Queering Myrrha in Frank Bidart's Desire
		Although the object of Myrrha's desire is not a member of the same sex, he is a member of the same family; Myrrha's love is made problematic because of a similarity between subject and object.
		Queer Myrrha is not that queer at all.
		Bidart's Myrrha is further victimized by her nurse, Hippolyta, who rescues her from death but then uses her to take revenge on Cinyras (who had previously caused the death of Hippolyta's father and brother).

	Jorgensen: Forbidden Love: Myrrha and Ovid’s Intertextuality
		Myrrha’s unnatural desire for her father creates a background in which Ovid can manipulate Vergil’s epic techniques through parallel religious invocations, placement of the story in nature, perversion of pietas, exile/odyssey, and the juxtaposition of characters using language.
		One example of Ovid’s manipulation is Cinyras’; application of the term pia to Myrrha and her prayer to pietas, both of which invite the reader to reconsider the relationship between Anchises and Aeneas in the Aeneid.
		Although pietas in the Aeneid represents the solemn relationship between father and child, in Ovid’s application pietas is the barrier between Myrrha and the actualization of her desire for her father.

	POETRY AND PROSE FROM IN POSSE REVIEW
		Myrrha and Cinyras sleep together three times; on the third night, Myrrha wakes to a light held up to her face.
		Cinyras tries to kill his daughter, but Myrrha, pregnant, escapes, making it to (in Ovid's phrase) "the Sabaeans' lands," where she asks that she be taken from the worlds of both the living and the dead, so as to profane neither.
		Myrrha's story, then, passes on the patterns it inherited: impossible desire, tragedy, vengeance, even incest (Cupid, to whom Adonis is repeatedly compared, is Venus' son).

		Kristin Kuster's Myrrha (2006), for orchestra and chamber chorus (the ACO Singers) drew on Ovid's story of a woman who lusted after her father (the result of being cursed by Aphrodite) and was transformed by the gods into a tree.
		Kristin Kuster's Myrrha, a setting of texts from Ovid for three amplified sopranos, male chorus and orchestra, unquestionably demonstrated the composer's expertise in crafting unique timbres.
		The unquestionable highlight of the evening, however, was Kristin Kuster's Myrrha, a lush and visceral work for orchestra and amplified voices based on Ovid's Metamorphoses.
