La mare eterna : Drama en tres actes by Ignasi Iglesias

"Tabby's travels" by Lucy Ellen Guernsey is a children's novel written in the mid-19th century. It likely follows a curious kitten named Tabby through a series of gentle adventures and mishaps, using the cat’s journeys to teach moral lessons about kindness, responsibility, and the comforts of home. The opening of the play provided unfolds in a rural Catalan farmhouse where Marió prepares supper while her uncle Andreu worries that their guest, the idealistic poet Florenci, will distract Andreu’s son Gabriel from his path to the priesthood. Over dinner, Florenci champions the vigor and dignity of peasant life and reads his rousing harvest verses to the farmhands—Enganya-amos, Ros, and Llec—captivating them and subtly stirring Gabriel, even as Andreu insists on the rosary. The next morning, Florenci gently probes Marió’s feelings and intuits mutual affection between her and Gabriel. Gabriel then appears in secular clothes, confesses to Florenci his crisis of vocation and love for Marió, and is urged to choose life and love over a child’s promise to his late mother. After comic business with the hands planning a snail cookout and a dance, Gabriel declares himself to Marió; she resists out of duty and fear of scandal but reveals her own feeling by tossing him a kissed flower as she departs in tears.
