ACT 3 SCENE 1 <\/b>Setting: The wood. TITANIA lying asleep.<\/p>\n

Enter QUINCE, SNUG, BOTTOM, FLUTE, SNOUT, and STARVELING.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nAre we all met?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nPat, pat; and here's a marvellous convenient place<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nfor our rehearsal. This green plot shall be our<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nstage, this hawthorn–brake our tiring–house; and we<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nwill do it in action as we will do it before the duke.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nPeter Quince,––<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nWhat sayest thou, bully Bottom?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nThere are things in this comedy of Pyramus and<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThisby that will never please. First, Pyramus must<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ndraw a sword to kill himself; which the ladies<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ncannot abide. How answer you that?<\/td>\n 11<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
SNOUT <\/td>\nBy'r lakin, a parlous fear.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
STARVELING <\/td>\nI believe we must leave the killing out, when all is done.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nNot a whit: I have a device to make all well.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nWrite me a prologue; and let the prologue seem to<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nsay, we will do no harm with our swords, and that<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nPyramus is not killed indeed; and, for the more<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nbetter assurance, tell them that I, Pyramus, am not<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nPyramus, but Bottom the weaver: this will put them<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nout of fear.<\/td>\n 20<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nWell, we will have such a prologue; and it shall be<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nwritten in eight and six.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nNo, make it two more; let it be written in eight and eight.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
SNOUT <\/td>\nWill not the ladies be afeard of the lion?<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
STARVELING <\/td>\nI fear it, I promise you.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nMasters, you ought to consider with yourselves: to<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nbring in––God shield us!––a lion among ladies, is a<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmost dreadful thing; for there is not a more fearful<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nwild–fowl than your lion living; and we ought to<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nlook to 't.<\/td>\n 30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
SNOUT <\/td>\nTherefore another prologue must tell he is not a lion.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nNay, you must name his name, and half his face must<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nbe seen through the lion's neck: and he himself<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmust speak through, saying thus, or to the same<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ndefect,––'Ladies,'––or 'Fair–ladies––I would wish<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nYou,'––or 'I would request you,'––or 'I would<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nentreat you,––not to fear, not to tremble: my life<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nfor yours. If you think I come hither as a lion, it<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nwere pity of my life: no I am no such thing; I am a<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nman as other men are;' and there indeed let him name<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nhis name, and tell them plainly he is Snug the joiner.<\/td>\n 41<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nWell it shall be so. But there is two hard things;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nthat is, to bring the moonlight into a chamber; for,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nyou know, Pyramus and Thisby meet by moonlight.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
SNOUT <\/td>\nDoth the moon shine that night we play our play?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nA calendar, a calendar! look in the almanac; find<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nout moonshine, find out moonshine.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nYes, it doth shine that night.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nWhy, then may you leave a casement of the great<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nchamber window, where we play, open, and the moon<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmay shine in at the casement.<\/td>\n 51<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nAy; or else one must come in with a bush of thorns<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nand a lanthorn, and say he comes to disfigure, or to<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\npresent, the person of Moonshine. Then, there is<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nanother thing: we must have a wall in the great<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nchamber; for Pyramus and Thisby says the story, did<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ntalk through the chink of a wall.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
SNOUT <\/td>\nYou can never bring in a wall. What say you, Bottom?<\/td>\n 58<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nSome man or other must present Wall: and let him<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nhave some plaster, or some loam, or some rough–cast<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nabout him, to signify wall; and let him hold his<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nfingers thus, and through that cranny shall Pyramus<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nand Thisby whisper.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nIf that may be, then all is well. Come, sit down,<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nevery mother's son, and rehearse your parts.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nPyramus, you begin: when you have spoken your<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nspeech, enter into that brake: and so every one<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\naccording to his cue.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nEnter PUCK behind.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
PUCK <\/td>\nWhat hempen home–spuns have we swaggering here,<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nSo near the cradle of the fairy queen?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nWhat, a play toward! I'll be an auditor;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAn actor too, perhaps, if I see cause.<\/td>\n 70<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nSpeak, Pyramus. Thisby, stand forth.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/i><\/td>\nThisby, the flowers of odious savours sweet,––<\/i><\/td>\n<\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/i><\/td>\nOdours, odours.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/i><\/td>\n–– odours savours sweet:<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nSo hath thy breath, my dearest Thisby dear.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nBut hark, a voice! stay thou but here awhile,<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nAnd by and by I will to thee appear.<\/i><\/td>\n<\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nExit<\/td>\n<\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
PUCK <\/td>\n[Aside.] A stranger Pyramus than e'er played here.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nExit.<\/td>\n<\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
FLUTE <\/td>\nMust I speak now?<\/td>\n 79<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nAy, marry, must you; for you must understand he goes<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nbut to see a noise that he heard, and is to come again.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
FLUTE <\/i><\/td>\nMost radiant Pyramus, most lily–white of hue,<\/i><\/td>\n<\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nOf colour like the red rose on triumphant brier,<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nMost brisky juvenal and eke most lovely Jew,<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nAs true as truest horse that yet would never tire,<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nI'll meet thee, Pyramus, at Ninny's tomb.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nNinus' tomb,' man: why, you must not speak that<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nyet; that you answer to Pyramus: you speak all your<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\npart at once, cues and all Pyramus enter: your cue<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nis past; it is, 'never tire.'<\/td>\n 90<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
FLUTE <\/td>\nO,––As true as truest horse, that yet would<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nnever tire.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nRe–enter PUCK, and BOTTOM with an ass's head.<\/i><\/td>\n<\/i><\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/i><\/td>\nIf I were fair, Thisby, I were only thine:<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nO monstrous! O strange! we are haunted. Pray,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmasters! fly, masters! Help!<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Exeunt QUINCE, SNUG, FLUTE, SNOUT, and STARVELING.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
PUCK <\/td>\nI'll follow you, I'll lead you about a round,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThrough bog, through bush, through brake, through brier:<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nSometime a horse I'll be, sometime a hound,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nA hog, a headless bear, sometime a fire;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd neigh, and bark, and grunt, and roar, and burn,<\/td>\n 100<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nLike horse, hound, hog, bear, fire, at every turn.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nExit<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nWhy do they run away? this is a knavery of them to<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmake me afeard.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nRe–enter SNOUT.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
SNOUT <\/td>\nO Bottom, thou art changed! what do I see on thee?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nWhat do you see? you see an asshead of your own, do<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nyou?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nExit SNOUT.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nRe–enter QUINCE.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
QUINCE <\/td>\nBless thee, Bottom! bless thee! thou art<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ntranslated.<\/td>\n 109<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/i><\/td>\nExit<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nI see their knavery: this is to make an ass of me;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nto fright me, if they could. But I will not stir<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nfrom this place, do what they can: I will walk up<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nand down here, and I will sing, that they shall hear<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nI am not afraid.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nSings.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe ousel cock so black of hue,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nWith orange–tawny bill,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe throstle with his note so true,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe wren with little quill,––'<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
TITANIA <\/i><\/td>\nAwaking.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/i><\/td>\nSings.<\/i><\/td>\n <\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe finch, the sparrow and the lark,<\/td>\n 120<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe plain–song cuckoo gray,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nWhose note full many a man doth mark,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd dares not answer nay;––'<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nfor, indeed, who would set his wit to so foolish<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\na bird? who would give a bird the lie, though he cry<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ncuckoo' never so?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
TITANIA <\/td>\nI pray thee, gentle mortal, sing again:<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nMine ear is much enamour'd of thy note;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nSo is mine eye enthralled to thy shape;<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd thy fair virtue's force perforce doth move me<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nOn the first view to say, to swear, I love thee.<\/td>\n 130<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nMethinks, mistress, you should have little reason<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nfor that: and yet, to say the truth, reason and<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nlove keep little company together now–a–days; the<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmore the pity that some honest neighbours will not<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmake them friends. Nay, I can gleek upon occasion.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
TITANIA <\/td>\nThou art as wise as thou art beautiful.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nNot so, neither: but if I had wit enough to get out<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nof this wood, I have enough to serve mine own turn.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
TITANIA <\/td>\nOut of this wood do not desire to go:<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThou shalt remain here, whether thou wilt or no.<\/td>\n 140<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nI am a spirit of no common rate;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe summer still doth tend upon my state;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd I do love thee: therefore, go with me;<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nI'll give thee fairies to attend on thee,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd they shall fetch thee jewels from the deep,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd sing while thou on pressed flowers dost sleep;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd I will purge thy mortal grossness so<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThat thou shalt like an airy spirit go.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nPeaseblossom! Cobweb! Moth! and Mustardseed!<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Enter PEASEBLOSSOM, COBWEB, MOTH, and MUSTARDSEED.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
PEASEBLOSSOM <\/td>\nReady.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
COBWEB <\/td>\nAnd I.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
MOTH <\/td>\nAnd I.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
MUSTARDSEED <\/td>\nAnd I.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
ALL <\/td>\nWhere shall we go?<\/td>\n 150<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
TITANIA <\/td>\nBe kind and courteous to this gentleman;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nHop in his walks and gambol in his eyes;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nFeed him with apricocks and dewberries,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nWith purple grapes, green figs, and mulberries;<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe honey–bags steal from the humble–bees,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd for night–tapers crop their waxen thighs<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd light them at the fiery glow–worm's eyes,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nTo have my love to bed and to arise;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd pluck the wings from Painted butterflies<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nTo fan the moonbeams from his sleeping eyes:<\/td>\n 160<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nNod to him, elves, and do him courtesies.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
PEASEBLOSSOM <\/td>\nHail, mortal!<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
COBWEB <\/td>\nHail!<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
MOTH <\/td>\nHail!<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
MUSTARDSEED <\/td>\nHail!<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nI cry your worship's mercy, heartily: I beseech your<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nworship's name.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
COBWEB <\/td>\nCobweb.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nI shall desire you of more acquaintance, good Master<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nCobweb: if I cut my finger, I shall make bold with<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nyou. Your name, honest gentleman?<\/td>\n 171<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
PEASEBLOSSOM <\/td>\nPeaseblossom.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nI pray you, commend me to Mistress Squash, your<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nmother, and to Master Peascod, your father. Good<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nMaster Peaseblossom, I shall desire you of more<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nacquaintance too. Your name, I beseech you, sir?<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
MUSTARDSEED <\/td>\nMustardseed.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BOTTOM <\/td>\nGood Master Mustardseed, I know your patience well:<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nthat same cowardly, giant–like ox–beef hath<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ndevoured many a gentleman of your house: I promise<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nyou your kindred had made my eyes water ere now. I<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\ndesire your more acquaintance, good Master<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nMustardseed.<\/td>\n 182<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
TITANIA <\/td>\nCome, wait upon him; lead him to my bower.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe moon methinks looks with a watery eye;<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nAnd when she weeps, weeps every little flower,<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nLamenting some enforced chastity.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nTie up my love's tongue bring him silently.<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
