Excerpts from A Midsummer Night's Dream
Now, fair Hippolyta, our wedding day
Appointed by our laws and rites,
Should be today. But, I will wed thee in another key,
With pomp, with triumph, and with reveling.
Come, thou shalt marry us.
If I have unmerited our lives
Upon the ground of worthiness,
It is not enough. We must work for what we desire,
For love, and for magic.
Then, let us all go forth,
To see the magic of the night,
When lovers’ hearts are bound by fate,
And fairy spells bring dreams to light.
O, marry me to-day if you love me,
And I will give you all my heart.
As I am a true lover,
I will not hide my love.
Come, let us prepare for the night,
When magic and love collide,
And fairy spirits dance in the moonlight.
For in this enchanted forest,
Love is found anew,
And spells make dreams come true.
