In the sequel no one asked for, we look at 5 tragic love stories from myth, thinking of the time that Tennyson said "It is better to have Loved and Lost than to have never Loved at all." We test that theory looking at the fate of Merlin, the Life of Deirdre, the creation of Chang'e the moon goddess, the descent into madness of Qays ibn al-Muilawah and the Courting of Atalante.
