Jose Mart í used to manifest a critical view regarding the inferiorization of women, so he focused on Guatemalan ladies and described them as ′′ walking indolent, caste-looking, dressed as women of the people, with the braids lying on the mantle…», that’s why when he met Maria, a woman with similar characteristics albeit with a more cosmopolitan air, fell in love immediately. 24-year-old Jose Mart í and Maria Garcia Granados of 17, agreed on what they felt each other, however love could never be matched due to José Mart í’s marriage commitment to another woman. Finally, on May 10, 1878, Maria Garc íaa Granados and Sabor íoo passed away, which gave rise to the belief that she had died of love by not enduring the pain that caused her to marry her beloved, then Jose Mart í He embodied his sadness in the poem IX of his Single Verses, aka La Ni ñaa de Guatemala.

GUATEMALA’S GIRL I want, in the shadow of a wing,
tell this story in blossom:
the girl from Guatemala,
the one who died of love. The bouquets were of lilies;
and the reseda orlas
and jasmine; we buried it
in a silk box… She gave the crumbling
a smelly pad;
he came back, came back married;
she died of love. They were loading it on the road
bishops and ambassadors;
behind the town in bands,
all loaded with flowers… She, for seeing him again,
went out to see the gazebo;
he came back to his wife,
she died of love. Like hot bronze,
to kiss goodbye,
it was his forehead – the forehead
that I have loved most in my life!… He entered the river late,
the doctor took her out dead;
They say he died of cold,
I know he died of love. There in the frozen vault,
They put it in two banks:
I kissed his sharp hand,
i kissed her white shoes. Quiet, in the dark,
the undertaker called me;
I have never seen again
to which died of love. Jose Mart í ·
