Shakespeare

Along with many others in the class, I did not understand the play very much. The language was extremely hard to follow and the large amount of characters and plots did not help very much. The relationship I tried to look into was between Oberon and Puck. Oberon obviously over rules Puck in any situations, Puck follows Oberon's requests. Oberon and Puck try to make everything right by using the potion from a flower.
Yet mark'd I where the bolt of Cupid fell:
It fell upon a little western flower,
Before milk-white, now purple with love's wound,
And maidens call it love-in-idleness.
Fetch me that flower; the herb I shew'd thee once:
The juice of it on sleeping eye-lids laid
Will make or man or woman madly dote
Upon the next live creature that it sees.

This potion is the basis for a lot of the plays conflicts. Puck accidentally puts the potion on the wrong person's eyes, Titania falls in love with Bottom who has a donkey head. I find it odd that the play ended by just being a dream but that also helps with the ridiculous events that took place. Thats really all that I got from the play. It was very confusing to read through and I lost track of who was who a lot.
