1
00:00:06,092 --> 00:00:08,942
[donkey braying]

2
00:00:14,531 --> 00:00:16,879
[crowd yelling]

3
00:00:19,791 --> 00:00:21,080
[Swords clashing]

4
00:00:48,022 --> 00:00:50,361
[grunting]

5
00:00:50,361 --> 00:00:51,901
[laughing]

6
00:00:58,367 --> 00:01:00,397
[Yelling, swords clashing]

7
00:01:17,857 --> 00:01:19,137
Ahhh!

8
00:01:35,575 --> 00:01:37,435
[yelling, swords clashing]

9
00:01:45,501 --> 00:01:47,141
Ahhh!

10
00:02:11,685 --> 00:02:13,047
[Theseus] Now, fair Hippolyta,

11
00:02:13,576 --> 00:02:15,725
our nuptial hour draws on apace.

12
00:02:16,406 --> 00:02:18,526
Four happy days bring in another moon;

13
00:02:19,396 --> 00:02:22,816
but, O, methinks, how slow this old moon wanes!

14
00:02:23,425 --> 00:02:24,733
She lingers my desires,

15
00:02:25,025 --> 00:02:26,705
like to a stepdame or a dowager,

16
00:02:27,106 --> 00:02:29,544
Long withering out a young man's revenue.

17
00:02:29,986 --> 00:02:32,705
[Hippolyta] Four days will quickly steep themselves in night,

18
00:02:33,095 --> 00:02:35,674
Four nights will quickly dream away the time;

19
00:02:36,126 --> 00:02:39,176
And then the moon, like to a silver bow New-bent in heaven,

20
00:02:39,406 --> 00:02:41,365
shall behold the night of our solemnities.

21
00:02:41,864 --> 00:02:43,127
Go, Philostrate,

22
00:02:43,387 --> 00:02:45,017
Stir up the Athenian youth to merriments,

23
00:02:45,286 --> 00:02:47,237
Awake the pert and nimble spirit of mirth,

24
00:02:47,487 --> 00:02:49,137
Turn melancholy forth to funerals;

25
00:02:49,425 --> 00:02:51,474
The pale companion is not for our pomp.

26
00:02:54,006 --> 00:02:55,085
Hippolyta,

27
00:02:56,195 --> 00:02:58,295
I wooed thee with my sword,

28
00:02:58,763 --> 00:03:00,878
And won thy love, doing thee injuries;

29
00:03:01,461 --> 00:03:03,518
But I will wed thee in another key,

30
00:03:04,147 --> 00:03:08,597
With pomp, with triumph, and with reveling.

31
00:03:12,316 --> 00:03:14,530
[arguing offstage]

32
00:03:24,117 --> 00:03:27,088
[Egeus] Happy be Theseus, our renowned Duke!

33
00:03:27,878 --> 00:03:29,447
[Theseus] Thanks, good Egeus.

34
00:03:29,886 --> 00:03:31,127
What's the news with thee?

35
00:03:31,374 --> 00:03:33,816
[Egeus] Full of vexation come I, with complaint

36
00:03:34,106 --> 00:03:36,688
Against my child, my daughter Hermia.

37
00:03:37,728 --> 00:03:39,770
Stand forth, Demetrius.

38
00:03:40,300 --> 00:03:44,281
My noble lord, this man hath my consent to marry her.

39
00:03:44,980 --> 00:03:47,289
Stand forth, Lysander.

40
00:03:51,530 --> 00:03:53,739
[Egeus] And, my most gracious Duke,

41
00:03:54,479 --> 00:03:58,261
This hath bewitched the bosom of my child.

42
00:03:58,671 --> 00:04:01,330
Thou, thou, Lysander, thou hast given her rhymes,

43
00:04:01,576 --> 00:04:05,672
And interchanged love tokens with my child.

44
00:04:05,942 --> 00:04:07,892
Thou hast by moonlight at her window sung,

45
00:04:08,152 --> 00:04:10,852
With feigning voice, verses of feigning love,

46
00:04:11,077 --> 00:04:12,622
And stol'n the impression of her fantasy

47
00:04:12,892 --> 00:04:15,042
With bracelets of thy hair,

48
00:04:15,392 --> 00:04:17,546
rings, conceits, gauds,

49
00:04:17,833 --> 00:04:21,242
Knacks, trifles, nosegays, sweetmeats,

50
00:04:22,047 --> 00:04:25,624
messengers of strong prevailment in unhardened youth.

51
00:04:27,454 --> 00:04:29,672
With cunning hast thou filched my daughter's heart,

52
00:04:29,973 --> 00:04:32,712
Turned her obedience, which is due to me,

53
00:04:33,234 --> 00:04:35,104
To stubborn harshness.

54
00:04:36,144 --> 00:04:39,501
And, be it so that she will not before your Grace,

55
00:04:39,733 --> 00:04:41,633
consent to marry with Demetrius,

56
00:04:41,893 --> 00:04:43,787
I beg the ancient privilege of Athens:

57
00:04:48,393 --> 00:04:51,274
As she is mine, I may dispose of her,

58
00:04:51,554 --> 00:04:53,154
be it either to this gentleman,

59
00:04:53,415 --> 00:04:55,865
Or to her death, according to our law.

60
00:04:56,140 --> 00:04:58,684
Immediately, provided in that case.

61
00:05:01,945 --> 00:05:03,035
[Theseus] What say you, Hermia?

62
00:05:03,294 --> 00:05:05,154
Be advised, fair maid.

63
00:05:05,445 --> 00:05:07,355
To you your father should be as a god,

64
00:05:07,822 --> 00:05:08,994
One who composed your beauties;

65
00:05:09,274 --> 00:05:12,065
yea, and the one to whom your are but as a form in wax

66
00:05:12,355 --> 00:05:14,394
By him imprinted and within his power

67
00:05:14,664 --> 00:05:17,054
either to leave the figure or to disfigure it.

68
00:05:17,794 --> 00:05:18,946
Demetrius is a worthy gentleman.

69
00:05:18,955 --> 00:05:19,965
[Hermia] So is Lysander!

70
00:05:20,235 --> 00:05:21,816
[Theseus] In himself he is;

71
00:05:22,104 --> 00:05:24,055
But in this kind, wanting your father's voice,

72
00:05:24,516 --> 00:05:26,476
The other must be held the worthier.

73
00:05:26,707 --> 00:05:27,987
[Hermia] I would rather my father looked but with my eyes.

74
00:05:28,257 --> 00:05:31,328
[Theseus] Rather your eyes must with his judgment look.

75
00:05:33,677 --> 00:05:35,217
[Hermia] I do entreat your grace to pardon me.

76
00:05:35,667 --> 00:05:37,618
I know not by what power I am made bold.

77
00:05:38,107 --> 00:05:39,678
But I do beseech your grace that I may know

78
00:05:39,908 --> 00:05:41,397
The worst that may befall me in this case

79
00:05:41,617 --> 00:05:43,088
If I refuse to wed Demetrius.

80
00:05:43,406 --> 00:05:45,258
[Theseus] Either to die the death,

81
00:05:45,529 --> 00:05:48,628
or to abjure forever the society of men.

82
00:05:50,827 --> 00:05:53,707
Therefore, question your desires;

83
00:05:54,239 --> 00:05:56,446
Know of your youth, examine well your blood,

84
00:05:57,500 --> 00:05:59,417
Whether, if you yield not to your father's choice,

85
00:05:59,747 --> 00:06:02,160
You can endure the livery of a nun.

86
00:06:04,282 --> 00:06:06,542
But earthlier happy is the rose distilled,

87
00:06:06,759 --> 00:06:08,923
Than that which, withering on the virgin thorn,

88
00:06:09,154 --> 00:06:11,553
Grows, lives, and dies in single blessedness.

89
00:06:11,827 --> 00:06:13,442
[Hermia] So will I grow, so live, so die, my lord,

90
00:06:13,802 --> 00:06:16,402
Ere I will yield my virgin patent up unto his lordship,

91
00:06:16,619 --> 00:06:19,103
whose unwished yoke my soul consents not to give sovereignty.

92
00:06:19,301 --> 00:06:22,118
[Theseus] Take time to pause;

93
00:06:22,327 --> 00:06:23,963
by the next new moon --

94
00:06:24,351 --> 00:06:27,373
the sealing day betwixt my love and me,

95
00:06:27,677 --> 00:06:29,633
for everlasting bond of fellowship --

96
00:06:30,721 --> 00:06:33,223
On that day, either be prepared to die

97
00:06:33,491 --> 00:06:35,296
For disobedience to your father's will,

98
00:06:35,682 --> 00:06:37,476
Or else to wed Demetrius, as he would,

99
00:06:38,443 --> 00:06:41,422
Or on Diana's alter to protest

100
00:06:41,933 --> 00:06:44,402
For aye austerity and single life.

101
00:06:44,831 --> 00:06:45,992
Relent, sweet Hermia:

102
00:06:46,813 --> 00:06:50,062
and, Lysander, yield thy crazed title to my certain right.

103
00:06:50,291 --> 00:06:51,783
[Lysander] You have her father's love, Demetrius;

104
00:06:52,013 --> 00:06:53,963
Let me have Hermia's: do you marry him.

105
00:06:54,203 --> 00:06:56,393
[Egeus] Scornful Lysander! True, he hath my love,

106
00:06:56,690 --> 00:06:58,753
And what is mine my love shall render him.

107
00:06:58,962 --> 00:07:01,052
And she is mine, and all my right of her

108
00:07:01,602 --> 00:07:03,504
I do estate unto Demetrius.

109
00:07:04,566 --> 00:07:07,516
I am, my lord, as well derived as he, As well possessed;

110
00:07:07,743 --> 00:07:09,222
my love is more than his;

111
00:07:09,492 --> 00:07:11,692
My fortunes every way as fairly ranked,

112
00:07:11,922 --> 00:07:14,632
if not with vantage, as Demetrius;

113
00:07:14,954 --> 00:07:18,045
And, what is more than all these boasts can be,

114
00:07:21,044 --> 00:07:23,219
I am beloved of beauteous Hermia.

115
00:07:24,747 --> 00:07:27,289
Why should I not then prosecute my right?

116
00:07:29,050 --> 00:07:31,751
Demetrius, I'll avouch it to his head,

117
00:07:31,980 --> 00:07:33,667
Made love to Nedar's daughter, Helena,

118
00:07:33,929 --> 00:07:35,039
And won her soul;

119
00:07:35,308 --> 00:07:36,541
and she, sweet lady, dotes,

120
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:37,820
devoutly dotes,

121
00:07:38,053 --> 00:07:42,461
dotes in idolatry upon this spotted and inconstant man.

122
00:07:43,661 --> 00:07:45,683
[Theseus] I must confess that I have heard so much,

123
00:07:46,849 --> 00:07:49,394
And with Demetrius had thought to speak thereof;

124
00:07:49,672 --> 00:07:53,151
But, being overfull of self-affairs, My mind did lose it.

125
00:07:54,362 --> 00:07:56,732
But, Demetrius, come;

126
00:07:57,232 --> 00:07:58,559
And come, Egeus.

127
00:07:58,830 --> 00:08:00,112
You shall go with me;

128
00:08:00,381 --> 00:08:02,932
I have some private schooling for you both.

129
00:08:03,643 --> 00:08:06,353
For you, fair Hermia, look you arm yourself

130
00:08:06,569 --> 00:08:09,092
to fit your fancies to your father's will;

131
00:08:09,373 --> 00:08:11,943
Or else the law of Athens yields you up to death,

132
00:08:12,534 --> 00:08:14,822
Or to a vow of single life.

133
00:08:17,694 --> 00:08:19,163
Come, my Hippolyta.

134
00:08:21,697 --> 00:08:23,563
[Theseus] What cheer, my love?

135
00:08:26,002 --> 00:08:28,113
Demetrius and Egeus, go along.

136
00:08:28,432 --> 00:08:31,147
I must employ you in some business against our nuptial,

137
00:08:31,412 --> 00:08:35,154
and confer with you of something nearly that concerns yourselves.

138
00:08:36,205 --> 00:08:39,294
With duty and desire we follow you.

139
00:08:47,275 --> 00:08:48,564
How now, my love!

140
00:08:50,452 --> 00:08:52,926
Why is your cheek so pale?

141
00:08:53,214 --> 00:08:54,994
How chance the roses there do fade so fast?

142
00:08:55,244 --> 00:08:57,114
[Hermia] Belike for want of rain, which I could well beteem them

143
00:08:57,315 --> 00:08:58,744
from the the tempest of my eyes.

144
00:08:58,964 --> 00:09:00,375
Oh, ay me!

145
00:09:00,663 --> 00:09:01,914
For aught that I could ever read,

146
00:09:02,155 --> 00:09:03,607
Could ever hear by tale are history,

147
00:09:03,962 --> 00:09:06,177
The course of true love never did run smooth.

148
00:09:07,228 --> 00:09:09,126
But, if it were different in blood --

149
00:09:09,613 --> 00:09:11,646
[Hermia] O cross! Too high to be enthralled to low!

150
00:09:11,899 --> 00:09:13,836
[Lysander] Or else misgraffed in respect of years --

151
00:09:14,026 --> 00:09:16,407
[Hermia] O spite! Too old be be engaged to young!

152
00:09:16,629 --> 00:09:18,566
[Lysander] Or it stood upon the choice of friends --

153
00:09:18,829 --> 00:09:21,387
[Hermia] O hell! To choose love by another's eyes!

154
00:09:21,609 --> 00:09:23,040
[Lysander] Or, if there were no sympathy in choice,

155
00:09:23,727 --> 00:09:25,927
War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it,

156
00:09:26,317 --> 00:09:27,757
making it momentary as a sound,

157
00:09:28,005 --> 00:09:29,557
swift as a shadow,

158
00:09:29,937 --> 00:09:31,187
short as any dream.

159
00:09:31,437 --> 00:09:33,856
So quick bright things come to confusion.

160
00:09:34,122 --> 00:09:36,217
[Hermia] If then true lovers have ever been crossed,

161
00:09:36,477 --> 00:09:38,647
It stands as an edict in destiny:

162
00:09:38,978 --> 00:09:40,297
Then let us teach our trial patience,

163
00:09:40,532 --> 00:09:42,627
Because it is a customary cross.

164
00:09:43,378 --> 00:09:44,766
[Lysander] A good persuasion.

165
00:09:45,477 --> 00:09:48,147
Therefore, hear me Hermia.

166
00:09:48,370 --> 00:09:50,667
I have a widow aunt, a dowager of great revenue,

167
00:09:50,867 --> 00:09:52,125
And she hath no child.

168
00:09:52,370 --> 00:09:54,577
From Athens is her house remote seven leagues.

169
00:09:54,817 --> 00:09:57,577
And she respects me as her only son.

170
00:09:59,888 --> 00:10:03,689
There, gentle Hermia, will I marry thee.

171
00:10:03,949 --> 00:10:06,469
And that place, the sharp Athenian law cannot pursue us.

172
00:10:06,739 --> 00:10:08,205
If thou lovest me,

173
00:10:08,438 --> 00:10:10,209
then, steal forth thy father's house tomorrow night;

174
00:10:10,660 --> 00:10:12,418
And in the wood, a league without the town,

175
00:10:12,689 --> 00:10:14,481
Where I did meet thee once with Helena,

176
00:10:14,818 --> 00:10:16,560
to do observance to a morn of May,

177
00:10:17,872 --> 00:10:20,351
There will I stay for thee.

178
00:10:20,987 --> 00:10:22,389
My good Lysander!

179
00:10:23,019 --> 00:10:25,109
I swear to thee by Cupid's strongest bow,

180
00:10:25,370 --> 00:10:27,522
By his best arrow with the golden head,

181
00:10:27,819 --> 00:10:29,915
By the simplicity of Venus' doves,

182
00:10:30,136 --> 00:10:32,009
By that which knitteth souls and prospers loves,

183
00:10:32,239 --> 00:10:33,979
By all the vows men ever broke,

184
00:10:34,319 --> 00:10:36,068
In number more than women ever spoke,

185
00:10:36,338 --> 00:10:38,600
In that same place thou hast appointed me,

186
00:10:38,813 --> 00:10:40,978
Tomorrow truly will I meet with thee.

187
00:10:41,248 --> 00:10:42,583
[Lysander] Keep promise, love.

188
00:10:42,803 --> 00:10:43,851
Oh, Helena.

189
00:10:44,770 --> 00:10:46,861
[Hermia] God speed, fair Helena! Whither away?

190
00:10:47,230 --> 00:10:48,341
[Helena] Call you me fair?

191
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:50,362
That fair again unsay.

192
00:10:50,731 --> 00:10:53,322
Demetrius loves your fair.

193
00:10:53,641 --> 00:10:55,471
O happy fair!

194
00:10:55,858 --> 00:10:57,191
Your eyes are lodestars,

195
00:10:57,471 --> 00:10:59,937
and your tongue's sweet air more tunable

196
00:11:00,137 --> 00:11:01,531
than lark to a shepherd's ear.

197
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,188
When wheat is green, when hawthorn buds appear.

198
00:11:05,010 --> 00:11:06,591
Sickness is catching.

199
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,831
O, were favor so, yours would I catch, fair Hermia, ere I go;

200
00:11:10,642 --> 00:11:11,901
My ear would catch your voice,

201
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,531
my eye your eye,

202
00:11:13,771 --> 00:11:16,156
My tongue should catch your tongue's sweet melody,

203
00:11:16,601 --> 00:11:19,610
Were the world mine, Demetrius being bated,

204
00:11:20,018 --> 00:11:22,719
The rest I'd give to be to you translated.

205
00:11:23,070 --> 00:11:24,832
O, teach me how you look,

206
00:11:25,169 --> 00:11:28,351
and with what art you sway the motion of Demetrius' heart!

207
00:11:28,667 --> 00:11:30,752
[Hermia] I frown upon him, yet he loves me still.

208
00:11:31,070 --> 00:11:33,880
[Helena] O that your frowns could teach my smiles such skill.

209
00:11:34,081 --> 00:11:36,051
[Hermia] I give him curses, yet he gives me love.

210
00:11:36,281 --> 00:11:38,080
[Helena] O that my prayers could such affection move!

211
00:11:38,281 --> 00:11:40,203
[Hermia] The more I hate him, the more he follows me.

212
00:11:40,562 --> 00:11:42,913
[Helena] The more I love, the more he hateth me.

213
00:11:43,115 --> 00:11:44,862
[Hermia] His folly, Helena, is no fault of mine.

214
00:11:45,469 --> 00:11:48,543
[Helena] None, but your beauty: would that fault were mine!

215
00:11:48,933 --> 00:11:50,743
[Hermia] Take comfort. He no more shall see my face;

216
00:11:51,381 --> 00:11:52,311
[Lysander] Ah!

217
00:11:54,304 --> 00:11:56,172
[Hermia] Lysander and myself will fly this place.

218
00:11:58,061 --> 00:12:01,882
[Lysander] Helen, to you our minds we will unfold.

219
00:12:02,672 --> 00:12:04,153
Tomorrow night, when Phoebe doth behold

220
00:12:04,413 --> 00:12:06,053
her silver visage on the wat'ry glass,

221
00:12:06,384 --> 00:12:08,466
decking with liquid pearl the bladed grass,

222
00:12:08,914 --> 00:12:11,383
A time that lovers' flights doth still conceal,

223
00:12:12,029 --> 00:12:15,136
Through Athens' gates have we devised to steal.

224
00:12:15,745 --> 00:12:16,966
[Hermia] And in the wood, where often you and I

225
00:12:17,187 --> 00:12:19,309
upon faint primrose beds were wont to lie,

226
00:12:19,636 --> 00:12:21,577
emptying our bosoms of their counsel sweet,

227
00:12:21,886 --> 00:12:24,936
There, my Lysander and myself shall meet.

228
00:12:25,225 --> 00:12:27,776
And thence from Athens turn away our eyes,

229
00:12:28,017 --> 00:12:30,564
To seek new friends and stranger companies.

230
00:12:34,607 --> 00:12:37,386
Farewell, sweet playfellow.

231
00:12:37,615 --> 00:12:41,407
Pray thou for us and good luck grant thee thy Demetrius!

232
00:12:47,518 --> 00:12:48,790
[Helena] Ohhh.

233
00:12:49,992 --> 00:12:51,707
[Hermia] Keep word, Lysander.

234
00:12:52,038 --> 00:12:53,706
We must starve our sight from lovers' food

235
00:12:53,928 --> 00:12:55,497
till tomorrow deep midnight.

236
00:12:56,306 --> 00:12:57,865
[Lysander] I will, my Hermia.

237
00:13:07,518 --> 00:13:09,838
Helena, adieu.

238
00:13:12,668 --> 00:13:13,709
[Helena] Ohhh.

239
00:13:14,519 --> 00:13:17,807
[Lysander] As you on him, Demetrius dote on you!

240
00:13:23,337 --> 00:13:27,168
[Helena] How happy some o'er other some can be.

241
00:13:27,606 --> 00:13:30,278
Through Athens I am thought as fair as she.

242
00:13:30,608 --> 00:13:32,318
But what of that?

243
00:13:32,588 --> 00:13:34,380
Demetrius thinks not so;

244
00:13:34,738 --> 00:13:37,156
He will not know what all but he do know.

245
00:13:37,887 --> 00:13:40,025
Love looks with the mind, not with the eyes.

246
00:13:40,466 --> 00:13:43,168
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.

247
00:13:43,837 --> 00:13:46,148
For ere Demetrius looked on Hermia's eyne,

248
00:13:46,531 --> 00:13:49,512
he hailed down oaths that he was only mine;

249
00:13:50,079 --> 00:13:52,817
And when this hail some heat from Hermia felt,

250
00:13:53,235 --> 00:13:56,548
So he dissolved, and showers of oaths did melt.

251
00:13:58,458 --> 00:14:01,959
I will go tell him of fair Hermia's flight.

252
00:14:02,188 --> 00:14:04,519
Then to the wood will he tomorrow night

253
00:14:04,759 --> 00:14:07,829
Pursue her; and for this intelligence, if I have thanks,

254
00:14:08,398 --> 00:14:10,367
it is a dear expense.

255
00:14:10,642 --> 00:14:12,538
But herein mean I to enrich my pain,

256
00:14:12,808 --> 00:14:15,767
To have his sight thither and back again.

257
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,119
[vocalizing strangely]

258
00:14:34,350 --> 00:14:36,499
[Quince] Is all our company here?

259
00:14:36,940 --> 00:14:39,009
[Bottom] You were best to call them generally,

260
00:14:39,270 --> 00:14:41,870
man by man, according to the scrip.

261
00:14:42,272 --> 00:14:45,168
[Quince] Here is the scroll of every man's name,

262
00:14:45,411 --> 00:14:48,929
who is thought fit through all of Athens,

263
00:14:49,188 --> 00:14:52,158
to play in our interlude before the Duke and Duchess

264
00:14:52,493 --> 00:14:54,987
on his wedding day at night.

265
00:14:55,980 --> 00:14:59,211
[Bottom] First, Peter Quince, say what the play treats on,

266
00:14:59,540 --> 00:15:00,890
then read the names of the actors;

267
00:15:01,114 --> 00:15:03,030
and so grow to a point.

268
00:15:03,260 --> 00:15:06,028
[Quince] Marry, our play is,

269
00:15:06,232 --> 00:15:07,749
"The most lamentable comedy,

270
00:15:08,009 --> 00:15:12,512
and most cruel death of Pyramus and Thisbe."

271
00:15:13,041 --> 00:15:15,371
[all] Ohhhh!

272
00:15:15,674 --> 00:15:18,840
[Bottom] A very good piece of work and a merry, I assure you.

273
00:15:19,139 --> 00:15:21,841
Now, good Peter Quince, call forth your actors by the scroll.

274
00:15:23,081 --> 00:15:25,831
Masters, spread yourselves.

275
00:15:29,129 --> 00:15:30,121
[Quince] Nick Bottom, the weaver.

276
00:15:30,343 --> 00:15:32,393
[Bottom] Ready! Name what part I am for, and proceed.

277
00:15:32,687 --> 00:15:35,321
[Quince] You, Nick Bottom, are set down for Pyramus.

278
00:15:35,591 --> 00:15:37,079
[Bottom] Aha. Yes.

279
00:15:38,671 --> 00:15:40,781
What is Pyramus?

280
00:15:41,252 --> 00:15:43,471
Is he a lover or is he a tyrant?

281
00:15:43,721 --> 00:15:48,012
[Quince] A lover that kills himself, most gallant, for love.

282
00:15:48,872 --> 00:15:52,941
[Bottom] Ohhh. That will ask some tears in the true performing of it:

283
00:15:53,502 --> 00:15:54,792
if I do it,

284
00:15:55,188 --> 00:15:55,969
(I'll do it)

285
00:15:56,570 --> 00:15:57,990
let them look to their eyes.

286
00:15:58,221 --> 00:16:00,581
I will move storms,

287
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,900
I will condole in some measure.

288
00:16:03,502 --> 00:16:04,932
Well, to the rest:

289
00:16:05,213 --> 00:16:07,563
yet my chief humor is for a tyrant.

290
00:16:07,912 --> 00:16:09,532
I could play Ercles rarely,

291
00:16:09,772 --> 00:16:13,191
or a part to tear a cat in, to make all split.

292
00:16:17,251 --> 00:16:18,994
The raging rocks

293
00:16:19,374 --> 00:16:21,353
And shivering shocks

294
00:16:21,591 --> 00:16:24,623
Shall break the locks 
Of prison gates;

295
00:16:24,887 --> 00:16:32,174
And Phibbus' car 
shall shine from faaaaaaaaaaar,

296
00:16:32,905 --> 00:16:37,794
And make and mar 
The foolish Fates.

297
00:16:38,323 --> 00:16:39,805
[applause]

298
00:16:41,474 --> 00:16:42,828
[Bottom] This was lofty!

299
00:16:42,974 --> 00:16:44,335
Now name the rest of your players.

300
00:16:44,335 --> 00:16:45,108
[Quince] Francis Flute---

301
00:16:45,158 --> 00:16:48,192
[Bottom] This is Ercles' vein, a tyrant's vein.

302
00:16:48,853 --> 00:16:49,743
[Quince] Francis ---

303
00:16:49,974 --> 00:16:52,934
[Bottom] A lover is more condoling.

304
00:16:59,764 --> 00:17:01,165
[Quince] Francis Flute, the bellows mender.

305
00:17:01,351 --> 00:17:02,635
[Flute] Here, Peter Quince. Here Peter Quince.

306
00:17:02,857 --> 00:17:04,519
[Quince] Ah, Flute. You must take Thisbe on you.

307
00:17:05,404 --> 00:17:09,474
[Flute] What is Thisbe? A wandering knight?

308
00:17:09,814 --> 00:17:13,913
[Quince] It is the lady that Pyramus must love.

309
00:17:16,262 --> 00:17:18,644
[Flute] Nay, faith, let me not play a woman.

310
00:17:19,148 --> 00:17:20,744
I have a beard...

311
00:17:23,523 --> 00:17:24,833
... coming.

312
00:17:25,552 --> 00:17:26,722
[Quince] That's all one.

313
00:17:27,022 --> 00:17:28,194
You shall play it in a mask,

314
00:17:28,434 --> 00:17:31,408
and you may speak as small as you will.

315
00:17:31,795 --> 00:17:33,399
[Bottom] And I may hide my face,

316
00:17:33,645 --> 00:17:35,164
let me play Thisbe too.

317
00:17:35,439 --> 00:17:37,094
I'll speak in a monstrous little voice,

318
00:17:37,552 --> 00:17:39,764
[low voice] "Thisne, Thisne!"

319
00:17:40,125 --> 00:17:42,916
[high voice] "Ah Pyramus, my lover dear!

320
00:17:43,178 --> 00:17:45,376
"Thy Thisbe dear, and lady dear!"

321
00:17:45,469 --> 00:17:46,944
[Quince] No, no!

322
00:17:47,099 --> 00:17:53,377
No. You must play Pyramus; and Flute, you Thisbe.

323
00:17:54,927 --> 00:17:56,435
[Bottom] Well, proceed.

324
00:17:58,575 --> 00:18:00,407
[Quince] Robin Starveling, the tailor.

325
00:18:02,348 --> 00:18:03,499
[Starveling] Here, Peter Quince.

326
00:18:04,038 --> 00:18:06,889
[Quince] Robin Starveling, you must play Thisbe's mother.

327
00:18:08,030 --> 00:18:09,560
And, Tom Snout, the tinker.

328
00:18:09,830 --> 00:18:10,749
[Snout] Here, Peter Quince.

329
00:18:11,032 --> 00:18:12,570
[Quince] Ah, you Pyramus' father:

330
00:18:12,909 --> 00:18:14,949
myself, Thisbe's father:

331
00:18:15,379 --> 00:18:16,927
and Snug the joiner;

332
00:18:17,373 --> 00:18:18,729
[Snug] Ooh ooh!

333
00:18:19,209 --> 00:18:20,409
[Quince] Ah, you the lion's part.

334
00:18:20,670 --> 00:18:23,620
And I hope here is a play fitted.

335
00:18:23,846 --> 00:18:25,061
[laughing]

336
00:18:26,211 --> 00:18:27,981
[Snug] Have you the lion's part written?

337
00:18:28,311 --> 00:18:31,140
Pray you, if it be, give it me, for I am s-s-s---

338
00:18:32,509 --> 00:18:33,370
s-s-s-s---

339
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,989
s-s-s-slow of study.

340
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,499
[Quince] You may do it extempore, for it is nothing but roaring.

341
00:18:41,910 --> 00:18:42,887
[roaring]

342
00:18:43,929 --> 00:18:45,732
[Bottom] Let me play the lion too.

343
00:18:46,020 --> 00:18:48,701
I will roar that I will make any man's heart good to hear me.

344
00:18:49,361 --> 00:18:51,799
Rooooaaar!

345
00:18:53,616 --> 00:18:55,556
I will roar that I will make the Duke say,

346
00:18:55,814 --> 00:18:58,749
"Let him roar again, let him roar again."

347
00:18:59,829 --> 00:19:02,368
[Quince] And you would do it too, terribly,

348
00:19:02,697 --> 00:19:04,689
You would fright the Duchess and the ladies,

349
00:19:04,929 --> 00:19:06,580
that you would cause them to shriek,

350
00:19:06,824 --> 00:19:09,443
and that would be enough to hang us all.

351
00:19:10,358 --> 00:19:12,729
[All] That would hang us, every mother's son!

352
00:19:13,269 --> 00:19:15,087
[Bottom] I grant you, friends,

353
00:19:15,327 --> 00:19:17,140
that if we should fright the ladies out of their wits,

354
00:19:17,363 --> 00:19:20,229
they would have no more discretion but to hang us:

355
00:19:20,509 --> 00:19:24,106
but I will aggravate my voice

356
00:19:24,336 --> 00:19:27,766
so that I will roar you as gently as any sucking dove;

357
00:19:27,766 --> 00:19:30,862
I will roar you an 'twere any nightingale.

358
00:19:31,002 --> 00:19:34,143
Ooooooohhh!

359
00:19:34,402 --> 00:19:38,452
[Quince] You will play no part but Pyramus!

360
00:19:39,938 --> 00:19:41,786
[all] Oooohh.

361
00:19:47,170 --> 00:19:49,549
[all exclaiming]

362
00:19:51,149 --> 00:19:54,091
[Quince, off] A proper man that one would see on a summer's day,

363
00:19:55,514 --> 00:19:58,211
a lovely, gentleman-like man.

364
00:19:59,121 --> 00:20:02,532
therefore you must needs play Pyramus.

365
00:20:02,836 --> 00:20:05,042
[all, off-stage] Yes! You must!

366
00:20:05,651 --> 00:20:07,361
[Bottom] Well, I will undertake it.

367
00:20:07,610 --> 00:20:09,851
[all cheering]

368
00:20:13,500 --> 00:20:15,800
[Quince] Masters...

369
00:20:20,580 --> 00:20:23,491
[Quince] Masters, here are your parts.

370
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:28,771
I must entreat, request you, and desire you

371
00:20:29,054 --> 00:20:31,345
to con them by tomorrow night.

372
00:20:31,939 --> 00:20:32,848
Roarrrr!

373
00:20:33,121 --> 00:20:34,081
[Snug] Oh yeah. Ha ha ha.

374
00:20:36,671 --> 00:20:39,122
[Quince] And meet me in the palace wood,

375
00:20:39,363 --> 00:20:40,551
a mile without the town, by moonlight.

376
00:20:41,783 --> 00:20:44,463
There we will rehearse.

377
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,311
For if we were to meet in the city, we'd be dogged with company,

378
00:20:47,541 --> 00:20:48,969
and our devices known.

379
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,163
In the meantime,

380
00:20:50,404 --> 00:20:53,393
I shall draw a bill of properties, such as our play wants.

381
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,320
I pray you, fail me not.

382
00:20:57,812 --> 00:21:01,800
[Bottom] We will meet. And there we may rehearse most obscenely

383
00:21:02,063 --> 00:21:03,582
and courageously.

384
00:21:03,862 --> 00:21:07,634
Take pains, be perfit. Adieu.

385
00:21:08,224 --> 00:21:09,155
[Quince] At the Duke's Oak we meet.

386
00:21:09,453 --> 00:21:10,363
[Bottom] Enough!
