Psyche had barely finished speaking before her sister spurred on by raging passion and venomous jealousy had conceived a tale to deceive her husband . Pretending she had just had news of her parents’ deaths , she took ship , and travelled to the cliff-edge . Though an adverse wind was blowing , filled with desire and in blind hope she cried : " Accept a wife worthy of you , Cupid : carry your mistress to him , Zephyr ! And she took a headlong leap . Yet even in death she could not reach her goal . Her body was broken and torn on the jagged rocks , as she deserved , and her lacerated corpse provided a ready banquet for the wild beasts and carrion birds .

Necdum sermonem Psyche finierat , et illa vesanae libidinis et invidiae noxiae stimulis agitata , e re concinnato mendacio fallens maritum , quasi de morte parentum aliquid comperisset , statim navem ascendit et ad illum scopulum protinus pergit et quamvis alio flante vento caeca spe tamen inhians , " Accipe me , " dicens " Cupido , dignam te coniugem et tu , Zephyre , suscipe dominam " saltu se maximo praecipitem dedit . Nec tamen ad illum locum vel satem mortua pervenire potuit . Nam per saxa cautium membris iactatis atque dissipatis et proinde ut merebatur laceratis visceribus suis alitibus bestiisque obvium ferens pabulum interiit .
