  La mare eterna by Ignasi Iglesias is a play written in the early 20th century. Set in a prosperous farmhouse in the Vallès, it explores the pull between religious duty and earthly love as the seminarian Gabriel wavers between a promise to his late mother and his growing feelings for his cousin Marió. The poet Florenci, a frail guest from the city enamored of rural life, champions vitality, art, and freedom, unsettling the devout farmer Andreu and inspiring the hired hands. The drama promises a collision of piety, passion, and nature's call within a vividly rendered agrarian world. At the start of the play, Marió and her uncle Andreu prepare supper and worry about Florenci's sway over Gabriel; after Gabriel and Florenci return from the fields, the farmhands join, and while Andreu leads prayers, Florenci quietly recites his stirring "Cant de Juny," enchanting the workers and so moving Gabriel that he drops his breviary. The next morning Florenci coaxes Marió's feelings into view, and Gabriel—now in secular clothes—confides to Florenci that he lacks vocation and loves Marió; urged to choose life, he decides to tell his father. When the hands bustle off to cook a rustic snack (and beg Florenci for more verses), Gabriel declares his love to Marió; she resists out of duty and fear of censure but is clearly touched, leaving him a kissed flower as she withdraws in tears. The opening closes with Gabriel torn yet newly resolute, alone as the others depart.

  "Las esposallas de la morta" by Víctor Balaguer is a dramatic work likely written in the late 19th century. This piece can be classified as a tragic play that draws inspiration from the timeless themes of love and fate, ultimately exploring the intense emotions and tragic consequences of forbidden love. It is set against a backdrop reminiscent of classic romances, specifically echoing the well-known story of Romeo and Juliet. The play centers around the doomed love affair between Julieta Capuletti and Romeu Monteschi, who are members of feuding families. The plot unfolds with their secret meetings and passionate exchanges, set amidst the tensions and violent rivalries that separate them. As the narrative progresses, tragedy strikes when Romeo is unwittingly drawn into conflict with Julieta's family, resulting in the death of her cousin Tybalt. In a desperate attempt to be together despite their families' enmity, Julieta fakes her own death using a narcotic provided by Friar Lawrence. However, the plan goes awry when Romeo, believing Julieta to be truly dead, takes his own life. When Julieta awakens and finds Romeo dead beside her, she too chooses to end her life, culminating in the heartbreaking message of the futility of their love amidst familial hatred.
