The Devil and Tom Walker
Storyboard Text
- They lived in a forlorn-looking house that stood alone and had an air of starvation. A few straggling savin trees, emblems of sterility, grew near it; no smoke ever curled from its chimney; no traveler stopped at its door. A miserable horse, whose ribs were aarticulate as the bars of a gridiron, stalked about a field.
- Indian. It is true he was dressed in a rudehalf-Indian garb, and had a red belt or sash swathed round his body; but his facewas neither black nor copper-color, but swarthy and dingy, and begrimed withsoot, as if he had been accustomed to toil among fires and forges. He had a shockof coarse black hair, that stood out from his head in all directions, and bore an axon his shoulder.
- As he scrambled up the tree, the vulture spread its wide wings, and sailed off screaming into the deep shadows of the forest. Tom seized the checked apron, but,woeful sight! found nothing but a heart and liver tied up in it!
- In this way he made money hand over hand, became a rich and mighty man.
- In place of gold and silver, his iron chest was filled with chips and shavings; two skeletons lay in his stable instead of his half starved horses, and the very next day his great house took fire and burnt to the ground.
