[crowd yelling]

0:00:19.791,0:00:21.080
[Swords clashing]

0:00:48.022,0:00:50.361
[grunting]

0:00:58.367,0:01:00.397
[Yelling, swords clashing]

0:01:17.857,0:01:19.137
Ahhh!

0:01:35.575,0:01:37.435
[yelling, swords clashing]

0:01:45.501,0:01:47.141
Ahhh!

0:02:11.685,0:02:13.047
[Theseus] Now, fair Hippolyta,

0:02:13.576,0:02:15.725
our nuptial hour draws on apace.

0:02:16.406,0:02:18.526
Four happy days bring in another moon;

0:02:19.396,0:02:22.816
but, O, methinks, how slow this old moon wanes!

0:02:23.425,0:02:24.733
She lingers my desires,

0:02:25.025,0:02:26.705
like to a stepdame or a dowager,

0:02:27.106,0:02:29.544
Long withering out a young man's revenue.

0:02:29.986,0:02:32.705
[Hippolyta] Four days will quickly steep themselves in night,

0:02:33.095,0:02:35.674
Four nights will quickly dream away the time;

0:02:36.126,0:02:39.176
And then the moon, like to a silver bow New-bent in heaven,

0:02:39.406,0:02:41.365
shall behold the night of our solemnities.

0:02:41.864,0:02:43.127
Go, Philostrate,

0:02:43.387,0:02:45.017
Stir up the Athenian youth to merriments,

0:02:45.286,0:02:47.237
Awake the pert and nimble spirit of mirth,

0:02:47.487,0:02:49.137
Turn melancholy forth to funerals;

0:02:49.425,0:02:51.474
The pale companion is not for our pomp.

0:02:54.006,0:02:55.085
Hippolyta,

0:02:56.195,0:02:58.295
I wooed thee with my sword,

0:02:58.763,0:03:00.878
And won thy love, doing thee injuries;

0:03:01.461,0:03:03.518
But I will wed thee in another key,

0:03:04.147,0:03:08.597
With pomp, with triumph, and with reveling.

0:03:12.316,0:03:14.530
[arguing offstage]

0:03:24.117,0:03:27.088
[Egeus] Happy be Theseus, our renowned Duke!

0:03:27.878,0:03:29.447
[Theseus] Thanks, good Egeus.

0:03:29.886,0:03:31.127
What's the news with thee?

0:03:31.374,0:03:33.816
[Egeus] Full of vexation come I, with complaint

0:03:34.106,0:03:36.688
Against my child, my daughter Hermia.

0:03:37.728,0:03:39.770
Stand forth, Demetrius.

0:03:40.300,0:03:44.281
My noble lord, this man hath my consent to marry her.

0:03:44.980,0:03:47.289
Stand forth, Lysander.

0:03:51.530,0:03:53.739
[Egeus] And, my most gracious Duke,

0:03:54.479,0:03:58.261
This hath bewitched the bosom of my child.

0:03:58.671,0:04:01.330
Thou, thou, Lysander, thou hast given her rhymes,

0:04:01.576,0:04:05.672
And interchanged love tokens with my child.

0:04:05.942,0:04:07.892
Thou hast by moonlight at her window sung,

0:04:08.152,0:04:10.852
With feigning voice, verses of feigning love,

0:04:11.077,0:04:12.622
And stol'n the impression of her fantasy

0:04:12.892,0:04:15.042
With bracelets of thy hair,

0:04:15.392,0:04:17.546
rings, conceits, gauds,

0:04:17.833,0:04:21.242
Knacks, trifles, nosegays, sweetmeats,

0:04:22.047,0:04:25.624
messengers of strong prevailment in unhardened youth.

0:04:27.454,0:04:29.672
With cunning hast thou filched my daughter's heart,

0:04:29.973,0:04:32.712
Turned her obedience, which is due to me,

0:04:33.234,0:04:35.104
To stubborn harshness.

0:04:36.144,0:04:39.501
And, be it so that she will not before your Grace,

0:04:39.733,0:04:41.633
consent to marry with Demetrius,

0:04:41.893,0:04:43.787
I beg the ancient privilege of Athens:

0:04:48.393,0:04:51.274
As she is mine, I may dispose of her,

0:04:51.554,0:04:53.154
be it either to this gentleman,

0:04:53.415,0:04:55.865
Or to her death, according to our law.

0:04:56.140,0:04:58.684
Immediately, provided in that case.

0:05:01.945,0:05:03.035
[Theseus] What say you, Hermia?

0:05:03.294,0:05:05.154
Be advised, fair maid.

0:05:05.445,0:05:07.355
To you your father should be as a god,

0:05:07.822,0:05:08.994
One who composed your beauties;

0:05:09.274,0:05:12.065
yea, and the one to whom your are but as a form in wax

0:05:12.355,0:05:14.394
By him imprinted and within his power

0:05:14.664,0:05:17.054
either to leave the figure or to disfigure it.

0:05:17.794,0:05:18.946
Demetrius is a worthy gentleman.

0:05:18.955,0:05:19.965
[Hermia] So is Lysander!

0:05:20.235,0:05:21.816
[Theseus] In himself he is;

0:05:22.104,0:05:24.055
But in this kind, wanting your father's voice,

0:05:24.516,0:05:26.476
The other must be held the worthier.

0:05:26.707,0:05:27.987
[Hermia] I would rather my father looked but with my eyes.

0:05:28.257,0:05:31.328
[Theseus] Rather your eyes must with his judgment look.

0:05:33.677,0:05:35.217
[Hermia] I do entreat your grace to pardon me.

0:05:35.667,0:05:37.618
I know not by what power I am made bold.

0:05:38.107,0:05:39.678
But I do beseech your grace that I may know

0:05:39.908,0:05:41.397
The worst that may befall me in this case

0:05:41.617,0:05:43.088
If I refuse to wed Demetrius.

0:05:43.406,0:05:45.258
[Theseus] Either to die the death,

0:05:45.529,0:05:48.628
or to abjure forever the society of men.

0:05:50.827,0:05:53.707
Therefore, question your desires;

0:05:54.239,0:05:56.446
Know of your youth, examine well your blood,

0:05:57.500,0:05:59.417
Whether, if you yield not to your father's choice,

0:05:59.747,0:06:02.160
You can endure the livery of a nun.

0:06:04.282,0:06:06.542
But earthlier happy is the rose distilled,

0:06:06.759,0:06:08.923
Than that which, withering on the virgin thorn,

0:06:09.154,0:06:11.553
Grows, lives, and dies in single blessedness.

0:06:11.827,0:06:13.442
[Hermia] So will I grow, so live, so die, my lord,

0:06:13.802,0:06:16.402
Ere I will yield my virgin patent up unto his lordship,

0:06:16.619,0:06:19.103
whose unwished yoke my soul consents not to give sovereignty.

0:06:19.301,0:06:22.118
[Theseus] Take time to pause;

0:06:22.327,0:06:23.963
by the next new moon --

0:06:24.351,0:06:27.373
the sealing day betwixt my love and me,

0:06:27.677,0:06:29.633
for everlasting bond of fellowship --

0:06:30.721,0:06:33.223
On that day, either be prepared to die

0:06:33.491,0:06:35.296
For disobedience to your father's will,

0:06:35.682,0:06:37.476
Or else to wed Demetrius, as he would,

0:06:38.443,0:06:41.422
Or on Diana's alter to protest

0:06:41.933,0:06:44.402
For aye austerity and single life.

0:06:44.831,0:06:45.992
Relent, sweet Hermia:

0:06:46.813,0:06:50.062
and, Lysander, yield thy crazed title to my certain right.

0:06:50.291,0:06:51.783
[Lysander] You have her father's love, Demetrius;

0:06:52.013,0:06:53.963
Let me have Hermia's: do you marry him.

0:06:54.203,0:06:56.393
[Egeus] Scornful Lysander! True, he hath my love,

0:06:56.690,0:06:58.753
And what is mine my love shall render him.

0:06:58.962,0:07:01.052
And she is mine, and all my right of her

0:07:01.602,0:07:03.504
I do estate unto Demetrius.

0:07:04.566,0:07:07.516
I am, my lord, as well derived as he, As well possessed;

0:07:07.743,0:07:09.222
my love is more than his;

0:07:09.492,0:07:11.692
My fortunes every way as fairly ranked,

0:07:11.922,0:07:14.632
if not with vantage, as Demetrius;

0:07:14.954,0:07:18.045
And, what is more than all these boasts can be,

0:07:21.044,0:07:23.219
I am beloved of beauteous Hermia.

0:07:24.747,0:07:27.289
Why should I not then prosecute my right?

0:07:29.050,0:07:31.751
Demetrius, I'll avouch it to his head,

0:07:31.980,0:07:33.667
Made love to Nedar's daughter, Helena,

0:07:33.929,0:07:35.039
And won her soul;

0:07:35.308,0:07:36.541
and she, sweet lady, dotes,

0:07:36.790,0:07:37.820
devoutly dotes,

0:07:38.053,0:07:42.461
dotes in idolatry upon this spotted and inconstant man.

0:07:43.661,0:07:45.683
[Theseus] I must confess that I have heard so much,

0:07:46.849,0:07:49.394
And with Demetrius had thought to speak thereof;

0:07:49.672,0:07:53.151
But, being overfull of self-affairs, My mind did lose it.

0:07:54.362,0:07:56.732
But, Demetrius, come;

0:07:57.232,0:07:58.559
And come, Egeus.

0:07:58.830,0:08:00.112
You shall go with me;

0:08:00.381,0:08:02.932
I have some private schooling for you both.

0:08:03.643,0:08:06.353
For you, fair Hermia, look you arm yourself

0:08:06.569,0:08:09.092
to fit your fancies to your father's will;

0:08:09.373,0:08:11.943
Or else the law of Athens yields you up to death,

0:08:12.534,0:08:14.822
Or to a vow of single life.

0:08:17.694,0:08:19.163
Come, my Hippolyta.

0:08:21.697,0:08:23.563
[Theseus] What cheer, my love?

0:08:26.002,0:08:28.113
Demetrius and Egeus, go along.

0:08:28.432,0:08:31.147
I must employ you in some business against our nuptial,

0:08:31.412,0:08:35.154
and confer with you of something nearly that concerns yourselves.

0:08:36.205,0:08:39.294
With duty and desire we follow you.

0:08:47.275,0:08:48.564
How now, my love!

0:08:50.452,0:08:52.926
Why is your cheek so pale?

0:08:53.214,0:08:54.994
How chance the roses there do fade so fast?

0:08:55.244,0:08:57.114
[Hermia] Belike for want of rain, which I could well beteem them

0:08:57.315,0:08:58.744
from the the tempest of my eyes.

0:08:58.964,0:09:00.375
Oh, ay me!

0:09:00.663,0:09:01.914
For aught that I could ever read,

0:09:02.155,0:09:03.607
Could ever hear by tale are history,

0:09:03.962,0:09:06.177
The course of true love never did run smooth.

0:09:07.228,0:09:09.126
But, if it were different in blood --

0:09:09.613,0:09:11.646
[Hermia] O cross! Too high to be enthralled to low!

0:09:11.899,0:09:13.836
[Lysander] Or else misgraffed in respect of years --

0:09:14.026,0:09:16.407
[Hermia] O spite! Too old be be engaged to young!

0:09:16.629,0:09:18.566
[Lysander] Or it stood upon the choice of friends --

0:09:18.829,0:09:21.387
[Hermia] O hell! To choose love by another's eyes!

0:09:21.609,0:09:23.040
[Lysander] Or, if there were no sympathy in choice,

0:09:23.727,0:09:25.927
War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it,

0:09:26.317,0:09:27.757
making it momentary as a sound,

0:09:28.005,0:09:29.557
swift as a shadow,

0:09:29.937,0:09:31.187
short as any dream.

0:09:31.437,0:09:33.856
So quick bright things come to confusion.

0:09:34.122,0:09:36.217
[Hermia] If then true lovers have ever been crossed,

0:09:36.477,0:09:38.647
It stands as an edict in destiny:

0:09:38.978,0:09:40.297
Then let us teach our trial patience,

0:09:40.532,0:09:42.627
Because it is a customary cross.

0:09:43.378,0:09:44.766
[Lysander] A good persuasion.

0:09:45.477,0:09:48.147
Therefore, hear me Hermia.

0:09:48.370,0:09:50.667
I have a widow aunt, a dowager of great revenue,

0:09:50.867,0:09:52.125
And she hath no child.

0:09:52.370,0:09:54.577
From Athens is her house remote seven leagues.

0:09:54.817,0:09:57.577
And she respects me as her only son.

0:09:59.888,0:10:03.689
There, gentle Hermia, will I marry thee.

0:10:03.949,0:10:06.469
And that place, the sharp Athenian law cannot pursue us.

0:10:06.739,0:10:08.205
If thou lovest me,

0:10:08.438,0:10:10.209
then, steal forth thy father's house tomorrow night;

0:10:10.660,0:10:12.418
And in the wood, a league without the town,

0:10:12.689,0:10:14.481
Where I did meet thee once with Helena,

0:10:14.818,0:10:16.560
to do observance to a morn of May,

0:10:17.872,0:10:20.351
There will I stay for thee.

0:10:20.987,0:10:22.389
My good Lysander!

0:10:23.019,0:10:25.109
I swear to thee by Cupid's strongest bow,

0:10:25.370,0:10:27.522
By his best arrow with the golden head,

0:10:27.819,0:10:29.915
By the simplicity of Venus' doves,

0:10:30.136,0:10:32.009
By that which knitteth souls and prospers loves,

0:10:32.239,0:10:33.979
By all the vows men ever broke,

0:10:34.319,0:10:36.068
In number more than women ever spoke,

0:10:36.338,0:10:38.600
In that same place thou hast appointed me,

0:10:38.813,0:10:40.978
Tomorrow truly will I meet with thee.

0:10:41.248,0:10:42.583
[Lysander] Keep promise, love.

0:10:42.803,0:10:43.851
Oh, Helena.

0:10:44.770,0:10:46.861
[Hermia] God speed, fair Helena! Whither away?

0:10:47.230,0:10:48.341
[Helena] Call you me fair?

0:10:48.648,0:10:50.362
That fair again unsay.

0:10:50.731,0:10:53.322
Demetrius loves your fair.

0:10:53.641,0:10:55.471
O happy fair!

0:10:55.858,0:10:57.191
Your eyes are lodestars,

0:10:57.471,0:10:59.937
and your tongue's sweet air more tunable

0:11:00.137,0:11:01.531
than lark to a shepherd's ear.

0:11:01.760,0:11:04.188
When wheat is green, when hawthorn buds appear.

0:11:05.010,0:11:06.591
Sickness is catching.

0:11:06.760,0:11:09.831
O, were favor so, yours would I catch, fair Hermia, ere I go;

0:11:10.642,0:11:11.901
My ear would catch your voice,

0:11:12.200,0:11:13.531
my eye your eye,

0:11:13.771,0:11:16.156
My tongue should catch your tongue's sweet melody,

0:11:16.601,0:11:19.610
Were the world mine, Demetrius being bated,

0:11:20.018,0:11:22.719
The rest I'd give to be to you translated.

0:11:23.070,0:11:24.832
O, teach me how you look,

0:11:25.169,0:11:28.351
and with what art you sway the motion of Demetrius' heart!

0:11:28.667,0:11:30.752
[Hermia] I frown upon him, yet he loves me still.

0:11:31.070,0:11:33.880
[Helena] O that your frowns could teach my smiles such skill.

0:11:34.081,0:11:36.051
[Hermia] I give him curses, yet he gives me love.

0:11:36.281,0:11:38.080
[Helena] O that my prayers could such affection move!

0:11:38.281,0:11:40.203
[Hermia] The more I hate him, the more he follows me.

0:11:40.562,0:11:42.913
[Helena] The more I love, the more he hateth me.

0:11:43.115,0:11:44.862
[Hermia] His folly, Helena, is no fault of mine.

0:11:45.469,0:11:48.543
[Helena] None, but your beauty: would that fault were mine!

0:11:48.933,0:11:50.743
[Hermia] Take comfort. He no more shall see my face;

0:11:51.381,0:11:52.311
[Lysander] Ah!

0:11:54.304,0:11:56.172
[Hermia] Lysander and myself will fly this place.

0:11:58.061,0:12:01.882
[Lysander] Helen, to you our minds we will unfold.

0:12:02.672,0:12:04.153
Tomorrow night, when Phoebe doth behold

0:12:04.413,0:12:06.053
her silver visage on the wat'ry glass,

0:12:06.384,0:12:08.466
decking with liquid pearl the bladed grass,

0:12:08.914,0:12:11.383
A time that lovers' flights doth still conceal,

0:12:12.029,0:12:15.136
Through Athens' gates have we devised to steal.

0:12:15.745,0:12:16.966
[Hermia] And in the wood, where often you and I

0:12:17.187,0:12:19.309
upon faint primrose beds were wont to lie,

0:12:19.636,0:12:21.577
emptying our bosoms of their counsel sweet,

0:12:21.886,0:12:24.936
There, my Lysander and myself shall meet.

0:12:25.225,0:12:27.776
And thence from Athens turn away our eyes,

0:12:28.017,0:12:30.564
To seek new friends and stranger companies.

0:12:34.607,0:12:37.386
Farewell, sweet playfellow.

0:12:37.615,0:12:41.407
Pray thou for us and good luck grant thee thy Demetrius!

0:12:47.518,0:12:48.790
[Helena] Ohhh.

0:12:49.992,0:12:51.707
[Hermia] Keep word, Lysander.

0:12:52.038,0:12:53.706
We must starve our sight from lovers' food

0:12:53.928,0:12:55.497
till tomorrow deep midnight.

0:12:56.306,0:12:57.865
[Lysander] I will, my Hermia.

0:13:07.518,0:13:09.838
Helena, adieu.

0:13:12.668,0:13:13.709
[Helena] Ohhh.

0:13:14.519,0:13:17.807
[Lysander] As you on him, Demetrius dote on you!

0:13:23.337,0:13:27.168
[Helena] How happy some o'er other some can be.

0:13:27.606,0:13:30.278
Through Athens I am thought as fair as she.

0:13:30.608,0:13:32.318
But what of that?

0:13:32.588,0:13:34.380
Demetrius thinks not so;

0:13:34.738,0:13:37.156
He will not know what all but he do know.

0:13:37.887,0:13:40.025
Love looks with the mind, not with the eyes.

0:13:40.466,0:13:43.168
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.

0:13:43.837,0:13:46.148
For ere Demetrius looked on Hermia's eyne,

0:13:46.531,0:13:49.512
he hailed down oaths that he was only mine;

0:13:50.079,0:13:52.817
And when this hail some heat from Hermia felt,

0:13:53.235,0:13:56.548
So he dissolved, and showers of oaths did melt.

0:13:58.458,0:14:01.959
I will go tell him of fair Hermia's flight.

0:14:02.188,0:14:04.519
Then to the wood will he tomorrow night

0:14:04.759,0:14:07.829
Pursue her; and for this intelligence, if I have thanks,

0:14:08.398,0:14:10.367
it is a dear expense.

0:14:10.642,0:14:12.538
But herein mean I to enrich my pain,

0:14:12.808,0:14:15.767
To have his sight thither and back again.

0:14:21.520,0:14:24.119
[vocalizing strangely]

0:14:34.350,0:14:36.499
[Quince] Is all our company here?

0:14:36.940,0:14:39.009
[Bottom] You were best to call them generally,

0:14:39.270,0:14:41.870
man by man, according to the scrip.

0:14:42.272,0:14:45.168
[Quince] Here is the scroll of every man's name,

0:14:45.411,0:14:48.929
who is thought fit through all of Athens,

0:14:49.188,0:14:52.158
to play in our interlude before the Duke and Duchess

0:14:52.493,0:14:54.987
on his wedding day at night.

0:14:55.980,0:14:59.211
[Bottom] First, Peter Quince, say what the play treats on,

0:14:59.540,0:15:00.890
then read the names of the actors;

0:15:01.114,0:15:03.030
and so grow to a point.

0:15:03.260,0:15:06.028
[Quince] Marry, our play is,

0:15:06.232,0:15:07.749
"The most lamentable comedy,

0:15:08.009,0:15:12.512
and most cruel death of Pyramus and Thisbe."

0:15:13.041,0:15:15.371
[all] Ohhhh!

0:15:15.674,0:15:18.840
[Bottom] A very good piece of work and a merry, I assure you.

0:15:19.139,0:15:21.841
Now, good Peter Quince, call forth your actors by the scroll.

0:15:23.081,0:15:25.831
Masters, spread yourselves.

0:15:29.129,0:15:30.121
[Quince] Nick Bottom, the weaver.

0:15:30.343,0:15:32.393
[Bottom] Ready! Name what part I am for, and proceed.

0:15:32.687,0:15:35.321
[Quince] You, Nick Bottom, are set down for Pyramus.

0:15:35.591,0:15:37.079
[Bottom] Aha. Yes.

0:15:38.671,0:15:40.781
What is Pyramus?

0:15:41.252,0:15:43.471
Is he a lover or is he a tyrant?

0:15:43.721,0:15:48.012
[Quince] A lover that kills himself, most gallant, for love.

0:15:48.872,0:15:52.941
[Bottom] Ohhh. That will ask some tears in the true performing of it:

0:15:53.502,0:15:54.792
if I do it,

0:15:55.188,0:15:55.969
(I'll do it)

0:15:56.570,0:15:57.990
let them look to their eyes.

0:15:58.221,0:16:00.581
I will move storms,

0:16:00.840,0:16:02.900
I will condole in some measure.

0:16:03.502,0:16:04.932
Well, to the rest:

0:16:05.213,0:16:07.563
yet my chief humor is for a tyrant.

0:16:07.912,0:16:09.532
I could play Ercles rarely,

0:16:09.772,0:16:13.191
or a part to tear a cat in, to make all split.

0:16:17.251,0:16:18.994
The raging rocks

0:16:19.374,0:16:21.353
And shivering shocks

0:16:21.591,0:16:24.623
Shall break the locks [br]Of prison gates;

0:16:24.887,0:16:32.174
And Phibbus' car [br]shall shine from faaaaaaaaaaar,

0:16:32.905,0:16:37.794
And make and mar [br]The foolish Fates.

0:16:38.323,0:16:39.805
[applause]

0:16:41.474,0:16:42.828
[Bottom] This was lofty!

0:16:42.974,0:16:44.335
Now name the rest of your players.

0:16:44.335,0:16:45.108
[Quince] Francis Flute---

0:16:45.158,0:16:48.192
[Bottom] This is Ercles' vein, a tyrant's vein.

0:16:48.853,0:16:49.743
[Quince] Francis ---

0:16:49.974,0:16:52.934
[Bottom] A lover is more condoling.

0:16:59.764,0:17:01.165
[Quince] Francis Flute, the bellows mender.

0:17:01.351,0:17:02.635
[Flute] Here, Peter Quince. Here Peter Quince.

0:17:02.857,0:17:04.519
[Quince] Ah, Flute. You must take Thisbe on you.

0:17:05.404,0:17:09.474
[Flute] What is Thisbe? A wandering knight?

0:17:09.814,0:17:13.913
[Quince] It is the lady that Pyramus must love.

0:17:16.262,0:17:18.644
[Flute] Nay, faith, let me not play a woman.

0:17:19.148,0:17:20.744
I have a beard...

0:17:23.523,0:17:24.833
... coming.

0:17:25.552,0:17:26.722
[Quince] That's all one.

0:17:27.022,0:17:28.194
You shall play it in a mask,

0:17:28.434,0:17:31.408
and you may speak as small as you will.

0:17:31.795,0:17:33.399
[Bottom] And I may hide my face,

0:17:33.645,0:17:35.164
let me play Thisbe too.

0:17:35.439,0:17:37.094
I'll speak in a monstrous little voice,

0:17:37.552,0:17:39.764
[low voice] "Thisne, Thisne!"

0:17:40.125,0:17:42.916
[high voice] "Ah Pyramus, my lover dear!

0:17:43.178,0:17:45.376
"Thy Thisbe dear, and lady dear!"

0:17:45.469,0:17:46.944
[Quince] No, no!

0:17:47.099,0:17:53.377
No. You must play Pyramus; and Flute, you Thisbe.

0:17:54.927,0:17:56.435
[Bottom] Well, proceed.

0:17:58.575,0:18:00.407
[Quince] Robin Starveling, the tailor.

0:18:02.348,0:18:03.499
[Starveling] Here, Peter Quince.

0:18:04.038,0:18:06.889
[Quince] Robin Starveling, you must play Thisbe's mother.

0:18:08.030,0:18:09.560
And, Tom Snout, the tinker.

0:18:09.830,0:18:10.749
[Snout] Here, Peter Quince.

0:18:11.032,0:18:12.570
[Quince] Ah, you Pyramus' father:

0:18:12.909,0:18:14.949
myself, Thisbe's father:

0:18:15.379,0:18:16.927
and Snug the joiner;

0:18:17.373,0:18:18.729
[Snug] Ooh ooh!

0:18:19.209,0:18:20.409
[Quince] Ah, you the lion's part.

0:18:20.670,0:18:23.620
And I hope here is a play fitted.

0:18:23.846,0:18:25.061
[laughing]

0:18:26.211,0:18:27.981
[Snug] Have you the lion's part written?

0:18:28.311,0:18:31.140
Pray you, if it be, give it me, for I am s-s-s---

0:18:32.509,0:18:33.370
s-s-s-s---

0:18:34.760,0:18:36.989
s-s-s-slow of study.

0:18:37.800,0:18:41.499
[Quince] You may do it extempore, for it is nothing but roaring.

0:18:41.910,0:18:42.887
[roaring]

0:18:43.929,0:18:45.732
[Bottom] Let me play the lion too.

0:18:46.020,0:18:48.701
I will roar that I will make any man's heart good to hear me.

0:18:49.361,0:18:51.799
Rooooaaar!

0:18:53.616,0:18:55.556
I will roar that I will make the Duke say,

0:18:55.814,0:18:58.749
"Let him roar again, let him roar again."

0:18:59.829,0:19:02.368
[Quince] And you would do it too, terribly,

0:19:02.697,0:19:04.689
You would fright the Duchess and the ladies,

0:19:04.929,0:19:06.580
that you would cause them to shriek,

0:19:06.824,0:19:09.443
and that would be enough to hang us all.

0:19:10.358,0:19:12.729
[All] That would hang us, every mother's son!

0:19:13.269,0:19:15.087
[Bottom] I grant you, friends,

0:19:15.327,0:19:17.140
that if we should fright the ladies out of their wits,

0:19:17.363,0:19:20.229
they would have no more discretion but to hang us:

0:19:20.509,0:19:24.106
but I will aggravate my voice

0:19:24.336,0:19:27.766
so that I will roar you as gently as any sucking dove;

0:19:27.766,0:19:30.862
I will roar you an 'twere any nightingale.

0:19:31.002,0:19:34.143
Ooooooohhh!

0:19:34.402,0:19:38.452
[Quince] You will play no part but Pyramus!

0:19:39.938,0:19:41.786
[all] Oooohh.

0:19:47.170,0:19:49.549
[all exclaiming]

0:19:51.149,0:19:54.091
[Quince, off] A proper man that one would see on a summer's day,

0:19:55.514,0:19:58.211
a lovely, gentleman-like man.

0:19:59.121,0:20:02.532
therefore you must needs play Pyramus.

0:20:02.836,0:20:05.042
[all, off-stage] Yes! You must!

0:20:05.651,0:20:07.361
[Bottom] Well, I will undertake it.

0:20:07.610,0:20:09.851
[all cheering]

0:20:13.500,0:20:15.800
[Quince] Masters...

0:20:20.580,0:20:23.491
[Quince] Masters, here are your parts.

0:20:24.200,0:20:28.771
I must entreat, request you, and desire you

0:20:29.054,0:20:31.345
to con them by tomorrow night.

0:20:31.939,0:20:32.848
Roarrrr!

0:20:33.121,0:20:34.081
[Snug] Oh yeah. Ha ha ha.

0:20:36.671,0:20:39.122
[Quince] And meet me in the palace wood,

0:20:39.363,0:20:40.551
a mile without the town, by moonlight.

0:20:41.783,0:20:44.463
There we will rehearse.

0:20:44.760,0:20:47.311
For if we were to meet in the city, we'd be dogged with company,

0:20:47.541,0:20:48.969
and our devices known.

0:20:49.240,0:20:50.163
In the meantime,

0:20:50.404,0:20:53.393
I shall draw a bill of properties, such as our play wants.

0:20:53.640,0:20:56.320
I pray you, fail me not.

0:20:57.812,0:21:01.800
[Bottom] We will meet. And there we may rehearse most obscenely

0:21:02.063,0:21:03.582
and courageously.

0:21:03.862,0:21:07.634
Take pains, be perfit. Adieu.

0:21:08.224,0:21:09.155
[Quince] At the Duke's Oak we meet.

0:21:09.453,0:21:10.363
[Bottom] Enough!
