This is the encounter that has altered the lives of so many - the first sight of the Lorelei, the Siren's call, as rendered by Patrick Kavangh: "On Raglan Road on an autumn day, I saw her first, and knew / That her dark hair would weave a snare that I might one day rue / I saw the danger yet I walked along the enchanted way"

All there: the entrapment, bewitchery, otherworldly enticements, into the dark realm of wonder, misery, confusion, exhilaration of meeting the One. I know. Guilty as charged. I've met mine and cannot shake myself out of her web. Little does she know though that her web has me bound fast.
