| Miles Standish and Priscilla Mullins immigrate to America, where they meet a scholar and poet named John Alden. The two men become good friends, but they also both fall in love with Priscilla and a love triangle develops between the three of them. Miles Standish is a soldier, athletic and muscular, whilst John Alden is his complete opposite. Alden struggles, wondering whether he should listen to his heart and chose love over friendship. On the other hand, Standish has lost his wife and looks forward to proposing to Priscilla Mullins. Why did Miles and Priscilla immigrate to America? Did they know each other in advance? What will the two men do to win Priscilla's heart? Who will succeed? Will they sacrifice their friendship for love? Find all the answers in Henry Wadsworth's historical poem "The Courtship of Miles Standish" from 1858. |
