ALOE wrote hymns for specific groups of people, specific occupations, and some longer poems on spiritual subjects. From the preface: "To admit rhymes for ragged children, needlewomen, and paupers into a book of sacred song, may-in the opinion of some critics-deprive it of all claim to the name of poetry. Yet I venture to hope that those who love to labor in God's vineyard, will not be sorry to bear to their poorer brethren verses intended to meet their peculiar trials, and cheer them under their peculiar sorrows; while the subjects of many of the hymns are such as are of equal interest to the prince as to the peasant." These hymns are written as poetry.

Charlotte Maria Tucker (1821-1883) was born in Barnet, England. Her gift of teaching appeared in her first book, "The Claremont Tales," which illustrates the Beatitudes, and her pen name became A.L.O.E. (A Lady of England). Her brothers moved to India, but she remained at her childhood home for 49 years, when in 1869, her mother died and she took up the study of Hindustani. In 1875, she felt a divine call to travel to India where she stayed for 18 years. She carried on the missionary work of teaching Indian women and children and writing stories until her death.
