A Faust-like meringue involving a wealthy Count who enters into a deal with the Devil: for every soul he delivers to Satan, the count will be granted an extra year of life. One of the count's victims, an artist named Rodolphe, dedicates his life to punishing the nobleman, a mission he accomplishes with the help of the beautiful Fairy Queen.

One of many adaptations of the comedy of manners written by Richard Brinsley Sheridan satirizing the gossip and scandal-mongering of London's high society.
