In this playful tale, four young Athenians run away to the forest only to have a mischievous fairy named Puck make both of the boys fall in love with the same girl. The four youths run through the forest pursuing each other while Puck helps his master play a trick on the fairy queen. In the end, Puck reverses the magic, and the two couples reconcile and marry.
