Poor Demetrius loves Hermia, who loves Lysander, while Helena loves Demet- rius, Hermia and Lysander decide to run away and agree to meet in the woods at a certain hour. Helena and Demetrius discover the plan and-follow them. The woods are inhabited by Oberon and Titania, king and, queen of the fairies, and their followers. Puck, Oberon's right hand man, sprinkles the dew of a magic flower on the lovers which makes them love the first person they see.

When Theseus has had the lovers awakened, he declares that their marriages shall be celebrated that very day with his. Mr. Gilbert helps members of his stage crew. 3
