Lorick #38:
An eponymous epic am I;
With marsh mother and monster I vie
Hailed as hero -- their bane --
Become king, long I reign
Dealt draconic defeat, so I died.
But first, we solve #39 - here it is one last time:
I am known for my hair, once so fine!
Through injustice was made serpentine!
Thence my looks petrified -
I gave birth as I died -
my head bagged, and despoiled, and enshrined!
