A moral allegory for children by the prolific Victorian writer A.L.O.E. (Charlotte Maria Tucker), using the story's central image of a silver casket to explore the temptations and 'wiles' of worldly life, in the didactic, symbol-laden style that made her one of the best-selling children's authors of the Victorian era, with royalties from her many books devoted largely to missionary work in India.
