The first prize was conferred upon Rizal for this composition, at a competition held by the Liceo Artistico Literario de Manila. Rizal’s teenage years were the years when his nationalism and patriotism were being fostered more and more, according to Fr. Schumacher who quoted Rizal’s statement “My second year as a boarder was like the first, except that on that time there had been a great development of my patriotic sentiments, as well as of an acute sensitivity .” Rizal was born during the era of Spanish…
