| Summary | "Ægle and the elf, a fantasy" by M. B. M. Toland is a charming illustrated fantasy book published in the late 19th century, specifically in 1887. This work likely taps into themes of enchantment and nature, as it introduces readers to mythical beings like naiads and elves, exploring the beauty and whimsy of magical encounters. The story revolves around Ægle, a delightful creature of water, who captivates a young woodland elf with her beauty. As she frolics by the stream, she draws the elf's attention, inspiring him to abandon his woodland abode in a fit of joy and curiosity. The narrative unfolds through vivid imagery and lyrical verses, depicting the elf's attempts to approach Ægle, which culminates in a playful yet chaotic moment by the water. The whimsical interactions between the elf and the naiads create a tangible sense of magic, only for the tale to conclude with the realization that it has all been a dream, leaving readers with a lingering sense of wonder.
