Longfellow's poem
Longfellow wrote this hour long, loosely organized poem, based on family lore. It relates a love triangle at Plymouth Rock with both men loving the fair Priscilla. The reading was just fine, but felt like reading from a hard copy would be more enjoyable.
the proud soldier and the poet
This is a story told me long ago by my mother who explained the line that delighted her: `Why don`t you speak for yourself, John?". A wonderful listen -- and now I know even better why she loved the tale. Portrait of the proud military hero, Miles Standish, is very well crafted, as is that of his counterpart and young friend - the writer, John Alden. John is sent on a mission to bear a marriage proposal on behalf of Miles Standish -- to the lovely Priscilla, already secret queen of John's own heart. How does one carry out an order like that one? I loved the tale, and its beautiful writing, though it is hard to excuse some of the phrases in which the native Americans were described . A small flaw in a great story, I thought.
A wonderful historical tale!!!
Pricilla Mullen was my great great great ect... grandmother. My grandparents traced their geniology all the way back to her. Im so proud to read her story again!!!! Henry Longfellow did a great job!!!!
