critics have remarked that marlowe's version of the faustus myth is "lowry's single most important source for "under the volcano"". lowry alludes to goethe's "" as well and uses a quote for one of his three epigraphs but marlowe's dominates, with the consul being suggested as a faustian black magician by hugh. the consul "often associates himself with faustus as a suffering soul who cannot ask for salvation, or who even runs toward hell", and parodies marlowe's line about helen of troy ("was this the face that launched a thousand ships, / and burnt the topless towers of illium?") when looking at a fighting cock in a bar, "was this the face that launched five hundred ships, and betrayed christ into being in the western hemisphere?"
