"She looks through water, / She looks through air,

She leaps at the moon / And she looks in.

Give her silver, Give her gold, / And bind her eyes

With a brick and a pin."

"Where All Things Perish" by Tanith Lee was first published in Weird Tales #325 (Fall 2001). It's available in full on Weird Fiction Review's website, which also links to an interview with Lee by Ann and Jeff Vandermeer.
