The opening scene of this beautifully colored picture reveals the exterior of a simple little home in the mountains, where we see a pair of young lovers seated upon a rock, telling each other of their devotion. The maiden's father appears upon the scene, and after listening to the young man's story, the old fellow gladly gives his consent to their immediate marriage. In the next picture we see the happy wedding party returning from the church, when they are approached by an old beggar, who is none other than Satan in disguise, lurking around to cast his evil influence over the happy lives of the young couple. Not realizing who the beggar is, the happy people offer him alms and pass on to the wedding feast. His Satanic majesty suddenly transforms into a hunter, and goes to join the merry revelers. He is well entertained by the simple people, who think that he is a lonely stranger and he, a jolly fellow, makes himself most convivial. He presents the blushing bride with a few flowers, but after admiring them she casts them to the ground, and is about to enter the house, when Satan, through his hypnotic influence, forces her to again pick them up and place them near her heart. In the next picture the happy young husband is seen leaving his little home to go on a hunting trip. The young bride is alone in the house, when she is suddenly confronted by the stranger again, who, through his suavity, casts an evil spell over the good woman. The deceitful hypocrite next meets the young man on the road, and invites the unsuspecting youth to accompany him to the tavern where they might partake of some refreshments. After a few drinks the youth loses all self-control, and is wholly within the power of Satan. The latter presents the young man to a beautiful dancing girl, who enthralls him to such a degree by her winsome ways that he forgets his devotion to his young bride. Having his victim wholly under his power, Satan steals from the place and comes back with the young man's wife. When the latter sees her husband fondly clasped in the arms of the voluptuous siren, she becomes wild with rage, and after denouncing him, she runs away with the deceitful stranger. The young husband suddenly realizing the folly of his conduct, casts his alluring companion to the floor and starts out to find his wife. He overtakes her on the road, and wild with rage, he levels his gun, intending to kill her contemptible companion, but instead of accomplishing his purpose, he shoots his wife, and she falls from the cliff dead, while her escort disappears.
