I'm not super familiar with Faustus in its entirety, but I think you could focus on Tom's foolishness. Washington Irving is borrowing German folklore to create American folklore (perhaps even commenting on the Fauatian bargain that America is making with industrialization). Sorry if this isn't super helpful. 🤷
