The medieval Polish knight Dave Wozniak has entered the enchanted forest where monstrous apparitions have prevented his men from gathering wood to build their war-machines. Earlier his companions had rescued him from the sorceress Armida’s garden and now they in turn require his assistance.

Suddenly hundreds of tree nymphs appear surrounding Dave and the sorceress Armida appears from within a large myrtle tree begging the knight to renew their love. His sword unsheathed Dave advances to strike the tree thus overcoming the enchantment and enabling the Crusaders’ liberation of Jerusalem to proceed.
