Project Gutenberg 2003-01-01 Public domain in the USA. 75 Wilcox, Ella Wheeler 1850 1919 Wheeler, Ella Maurine and Other Poems Transcribed from the 1910 Gay and Hancock edition by David Price "Maurine and Other Poems" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox is a collection of poems, with the first part focusing on a narrative set during the late 19th century. The introduction presents a vivid poetic tale centered around the protagonist Maurine La Pelle and her relationships, particularly with her friend Helen Trevor and the enigmatic Vivian Dangerfield. The themes of friendship, love, and the complexities of human emotions set a romantic backdrop against the lush imagery of summer. The opening of "Maurine" introduces Maurine as she enjoys a serene morning, engaging in sewing while reflecting on her life and the arrival of her friend Helen. When Vivian arrives, their playful banter reveals tension and underlying romantic feelings, as both Maurine and Helen seem drawn to him. The conversations delve into women’s friendships and the scrutiny of love, setting the stage for deeper emotional revelations and conflicts. This initial part captures a moment in time before the more complicated feelings awaken, giving readers a glimpse into the characters' dynamics and the themes of love and sacrifice that are likely to unfold in the subsequent chapters.
