520 _a"Little Engel: a ballad; with a series of epigrams from the Persian" by George Borrow is a narrative poem written in the early 20th century. This book presents a rich ballad that recounts the adventures of a heroic figure named Little Engel, intertwined with poignant epigrams drawn from Persian literature. The poem delves into themes of love, vengeance, and valor set against an epic backdrop. The story follows Little Engel, a valiant character who defies peril to rescue his love, Malfred, from the malicious grasp of his uncle, Sir Godey Loumand, who previously caused the death of Engel's father. The tale unfolds with Engel and Malfred seeking refuge in a church, guarded from Loumand and his men. Facing overwhelming odds, Engel eventually seeks retribution for his father's death, utilizing the support of his comrades and gaining an alliance with the Danish King. Ultimately, the narrative culminates in a fierce confrontation, leading to Engel avenging his father's fall and confronting his family’s tragic past, with the poem concluding in solemn reflection through its elegy and insightful epigrams.
