Amaryllis - One character pines for another
In Greek mythology, Amaryllis pinned for Alteo, a shepard. To make him fall in love with her, she pierced her heart with a golden arrow and stood outside his house for thirty days. On the thirtieth day, her wound healed, the blood droplets on the ground grew into flowers and Alteo returned her feelings.
