Sappho is known to have referenced the myth of Eros and Psyche a few times in her verses, but as with many ancient texts, exact fragments can be tough to find. However, here are a few notable Sapphic fragments worth noting:

- Fragment #33: "Eros once again limb-loosener whirls me / Sweetbitter unmanageable creature stealing up / Under the guise of Epios or hapless Andromeda"

- Fragment #47: "But you forgot me pleasantly justly avoiding Krete and wandering too bitter-wise much flesh eats me away still I willingly go Yes"

You might find it interesting that while Sappho isn't known for her detailed references to Greek myths and deities - especially when compared with other poets like Hesiod, Homer or Pindar - she often acknowledges them thematically by intertwining gods/goddesses figures within poetic imagery sometimes consistently showcasing womanhood flourishing spirited multidimensionality vital praising after critically exhaustive reasoning manner exceptional fortified perspective building communicative bond-like structure evoking acuity towards understanding healthy habits influencing positively effecting all truly attentive on awareness-driven architectures.
