This writer quoted a line from Marvell about Matilda of Flanders in her work The Story of the Normans, Told Chiefly in Relation to Their Conquest of England. In one of her works, Mrs. Bean is the recipient of a warm petticoat from Miss Debby Gaines. She wrote of Tom Aldis's love for the title character in "The Life of Nancy." Besides writing "An Empty Purse," she collected several stories in a volume titled for a tale in which the owner of the cow Mistress Moolly, a woman named Sylvia, refuses to tell a hunter the location of the title bird.

For 10 points, name this Maine author of "A White Heron" and The Country of the Pointed Firs.
