Feeling much ill-treated, Willie creeps into a suit of armor, which stands in the lower ball and falls asleep. His dream carries him back to the days "when love was young and knights were bold," and in fancy he is summoned before the King. That royal gentleman covets greatly Willie's beautiful lady, Clara. He orders the Knight to bring her to court. Though suspicious of the King's intentions, Willie must obey his mandate and the parting is, indeed, sad when Clara leaves her Knight to reside in the King's palace. The ruler's wife, enraged with jealousy at her husband's actions, secures the magic rose, whose perfume causes death. Presenting it to Clara, the beautiful lady falls back as if dead, and with much lamentation, she is stretched on a bier. Willie, hearing of his wife's death, gallops madly to the castle, and is tearfully bending over her when she opens her eyes and softly tells him she has shammed death to escape from the King. He assists her to rise, and they rush madly off, only to be held up by the King's guards. Disposing of them single handed, Willie is carrying Clara back, when he awakes with a start to find himself in his mother's arms. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
