In "The Eve of St. Agnes" by John Keats, Madeline, a young woman, is filled with anticipation on the mystical night of St. Agnes. She believes that by observing certain rituals, she can glimpse her future husband in a dream. As she attends a grand party, numerous knights seek her attention, but her heart yearns only for Porphyro, a man from a rival family. Unbeknownst to all, Porphyro arrives at the castle in secret, motivated by his profound love for Madeline. Their forbidden love intensifies against the backdrop of family feuds and societal norms. Keats weaves a tale of romance and longing, where the power of love transcends boundaries, and the Eve of St. Agnes becomes a night of destiny, forever altering the lives of its star-crossed lovers.
