"The Mirror and the Bracelet: or, Little Bullets from Batala" by A. L. O. E. is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The book explores themes of compassion, self-discovery, and the journey from ignorance to knowledge through the story of Bandhu, a boy who faces adversity and moral challenges. The narrative conveys moral lessons through allegories, targeting both Hindu readers and those interested in missionary work. The opening of the story introduces Bandhu, a young boy who, while on a pilgrimage with his mother, falls gravely ill and is abandoned by her in a jungle. Just as a tiger approaches him, a compassionate king intervenes, saving Bandhu's life at great personal risk. The king adopts Bandhu as his own, providing him with a magical mirror and a bracelet that symbolize guidance and conscience. However, as time passes, Bandhu falls under the influence of a deceitful man named Farebwala, who exploits him and conceals the truth of his royal benefactor. This sets the stage for Bandhu's quest for self-realization and redemption, as he grapples with falsehoods and ultimately seeks to reclaim his identity and purpose.
