In my humble opinion, the poem is an allegory of life in which u cant seperate sensual life from reasoning. Lycius couldnt resist his senses and was seduced by Lamia. His reasoning was lost because of her beauty. but her beauty wasnt real as she used to be a serpent and now she is ‘disguised’ by a real woman.
