Her sister Myna, is not so fair to look upon, but she possesses a cultivated voice. Robert Hale, passing their home, hears Myna singing. He listens attentively, and after she has finished, Undine happens to come to the window. He bows to her and through this incident, they become acquainted. He woos her and every time he calls to see her, asks her to sing, but she always evades his request. Finally, she arranges with Myna to deceive Mr. Hale. She tells him that she will sing for him in the choir-loft of the village church and her sister Myna will play the organ for her while he sits in one of the pews below. This plan is carried out. While she stands at the choir rail in the choir-loft. Myna not only plays, but sings. Hale is so impressed by Undine's accomplishment, his admiration is unbounded. Myna wanders away by herself into the woods and alone she sings the song. Hale is passing through the woods and hears the sweet notes of Myna's song. He hastens to her side and there learns for himself the deception perpetrated upon him. He is not long in rejecting Undine and declaring his intention of marrying her sister Myna.
