Maria walked the riverside in her white gown, crying for her sons, until she died of starvation on the river bank. Either way, she was responsible for their deaths, and could not bear the guilt.

She rejected most of her suitors, and married the most handsome young ranchero around. La Llorona means "the weeping woman." This legendary ghost of New Mexico was once a beautiful woman named Maria.
