The Eye of Envy

At the crook of a road leading to Success is the little hamlet of Sleepy Hollow where everyone sleeps as time rolls on. In Sleepy Hollow dwells a young blacksmith who, when not happily making horseshoes, is courting a village maiden. One day, the regular road is closed for repairs, and the detour forces traffic to pass through Sleepy Hollow on the way to Success. Passing through the town is Avarice and his beautiful bride Innocence who bestir the envy of the blacksmith. Following them along the road to Success, the smithy encounters a wishing tree which enables him to switch bodies with Avarice. Transformed for the worse, the smithy realizes his mistake too late and is killed. He then awakens from his nightmare, realizes that money and power are superficial values, and returns to his peaceful life and the maiden in Sleepy Hollow.
