Lenore
Although the Battle of Prague is over, William, the fiancé of a young woman named Lenore, has not yet returned from the Seven Years' War. Lenore has been anxiously worrying about him daily and yearning for his return, but she has received no news. When the other soldiers come back without William, she begins to argue with God, lamenting his injustice and claiming he has never done her any good.
At midnight, a mysterious stranger resembling William knocks on the door, searching for Lenore, and asks her to accompany him on horseback to their marriage bed. Overjoyed, Lenore mounts the stranger's black steed, and they ride at a frantic pace under the moonlight, passing through eerie landscapes. Terrified, Lenore questions why they are riding so fast. He replies that "the dead travel fast".
As dawn breaks, their journey ends at the cemetery gates. As they pass through the tombstones, the knight begins to lose his human appearance, revealing himself as Death, a skeleton with a scythe and an hourglass. The marriage bed turns out to be a grave, where William's skeleton lies alongside his shattered armor. The ground beneath Lenore's feet begins to crumble, and spirits dancing in the moonlight surround her, proclaiming that "no one is to quarrel with God in Heaven".
