About this ebook
This is a ballad translated by George Borrow, inspired by the life and death of a Danish nobleman and magnate, Stig Andersen Hvide, known as the leading man among the outlaws after the murder of King Eric V of Denmark. Morrow himself was an English writer of novels and of travel based on personal experiences in Europe, best remembered for his works about the Romani people.
