0:01:40 > 0:01:42Our nuptial hour

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Draws on apace. Four happy days bring in

0:01:45 > 0:01:49Another moon, But, O, methinks, how slow

0:01:49 > 0:01:51This old moon wanes.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10Four days will quickly steep themselves in night,

0:02:10 > 0:02:14Four nights will quickly dream away the time,

0:02:14 > 0:02:17And then the moon, like to a silver bow

0:02:17 > 0:02:21New-bent in heaven, shall behold the night

0:02:21 > 0:02:22Of our solemnities.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29Hippolyta...

0:02:29 > 0:02:32I woo'd thee with my sword,

0:02:32 > 0:02:35And won thy love, doing thee injuries...

0:02:46 > 0:02:49GUNS CLICK

0:02:49 > 0:02:53But I will wed thee in another key,

0:02:53 > 0:02:57With pomp, with triumph and with revelling.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51Happy be Theseus, our renowned Duke!

0:03:51 > 0:03:54Thanks, good Egeus, What's the news with thee?

0:03:54 > 0:03:56Full of vexation come I, with complaint

0:03:56 > 0:03:59Against my child, my daughter Hermia.

0:04:00 > 0:04:04Stand forth, Demetrius. My noble lord,

0:04:04 > 0:04:07This man hath my consent to marry her.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Stand forth, Lysander,

0:04:11 > 0:04:14And, my gracious Duke,

0:04:14 > 0:04:17This man hath bewitch'd the bosom of my child.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20He hath by moonlight at her window sung

0:04:20 > 0:04:23With feigning voice verses of feigning love.

0:04:24 > 0:04:29# Tomorrow is St Valentine's Day

0:04:29 > 0:04:32# All in the morning betime

0:04:32 > 0:04:36# And I a maid at your window

0:04:36 > 0:04:41# To be your valentine. #

0:04:41 > 0:04:45With cunning hast thou filch'd my daughter's heart,

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Turn'd her obedience, which is due to me,

0:04:47 > 0:04:52To stubborn harshness. So, my gracious Duke,

0:04:52 > 0:04:56I beg the ancient privilege of Athens.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59As she is mine, I may dispose of her,

0:04:59 > 0:05:03Which shall be either to this gentleman

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Or to her death!

0:05:10 > 0:05:12What say you, Hermia?

0:05:12 > 0:05:13Be advised, fair maid,

0:05:13 > 0:05:15To you your father should be as a god.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19- Demetrius is a worthy gentleman... - So is Lysander!

0:05:21 > 0:05:23SHE CLEARS THROAT

0:05:23 > 0:05:25I do entreat your grace to pardon me.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28I know not by what power I am made bold,

0:05:28 > 0:05:30But I beseech your grace that I may know

0:05:30 > 0:05:32The worst that may befall me in this case

0:05:32 > 0:05:35If I refuse to wed Demetrius.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40To die the death.

0:05:43 > 0:05:44Relent, sweet Hermia,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46and, Lysander, yield

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Thy crazed title to my certain right.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50You have her father's love, Demetrius,

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Let me have Hermia's. Do you marry him!

0:05:52 > 0:05:54HE CHUCKLES

0:05:58 > 0:06:01For you, fair Hermia, look you arm yourself

0:06:01 > 0:06:03To fit your fancies to your father's will,

0:06:03 > 0:06:07Or else the law of Athens yields you up.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11To death!

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Ay me! For aught that I could ever read,

0:06:35 > 0:06:38The course of true love never did run smooth.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Hear me, Hermia!

0:06:49 > 0:06:51I have a widow aunt, a dowager,

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Of great revenue, and she hath no child.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56From Athens is her house remote seven leagues,

0:06:56 > 0:06:59And she respects me as her only son.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02There, gentle Hermia, may I marry thee,

0:07:02 > 0:07:05And to that place the sharp Athenian law

0:07:05 > 0:07:06Cannot pursue us.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08If thou lovest me, then

0:07:08 > 0:07:11Steal forth thy father's house later tonight,

0:07:11 > 0:07:15And in the wood, two leagues without the town

0:07:15 > 0:07:17There will I stay for thee.

0:07:17 > 0:07:18My good Lysander,

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Come midnight truly will I meet with thee.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Keep promise, love. Oh, look - here comes Helena.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30God speed, fair Helena! Whither away?

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Call you me fair?

0:07:32 > 0:07:34That "fair" again unsay.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Demetrius loves your fair. O happy fair!

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Sickness is catching.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41O, were favour so,

0:07:41 > 0:07:45Yours would I catch, fair Hermia, ere I go.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48My ear should catch your voice, my eye your eye,

0:07:48 > 0:07:51My tongue should catch your tongue's sweet melody.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54O, teach me how you look, and with what art

0:07:54 > 0:07:56You sway the motion of Demetrius' heart.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59I frown upon him, yet he loves me still.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01O that your frowns would teach my smiles such skill!

0:08:01 > 0:08:04The more I hate, the more he follows me.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06The more I love, the more he hateth me.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09His folly, Helena, is no fault of mine.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11None but your beauty.

0:08:11 > 0:08:12Would that fault were mine!

0:08:12 > 0:08:16Take comfort. He no more shall see my face.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21Lysander and myself will fly this place.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25Helen, to you our minds we will reveal.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Through Athens' gates have we devised to steal.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30And thence from Athens turn away our eyes

0:08:30 > 0:08:33To seek new friends and stranger companies.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38Farewell, sweet playfellow.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Pray thou for us,

0:08:42 > 0:08:45And good luck grant thee thy Demetrius.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Keep word, Lysander. We must starve our sight

0:08:48 > 0:08:50From lovers' food till later, deep midnight.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52I will, my Hermia.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58Helena, adieu!

0:08:58 > 0:09:02As you on him, Demetrius dote on you.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06"As you on him, Demetrius dote on you."

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Through Athens I am thought as fair as she!

0:09:09 > 0:09:14But what of that? Demetrius thinks not so.

0:09:14 > 0:09:19Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,

0:09:19 > 0:09:22And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25For ere Demetrius looked on Hermia's eyne

0:09:25 > 0:09:27He hailed down oaths that he was only mine.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36I will go tell him of fair Hermia's flight!

0:09:37 > 0:09:40Then to the wood will he this very night

0:09:40 > 0:09:42Pursue her, and for this intelligence

0:09:42 > 0:09:46If I have thanks it is a dear expense.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48But herein mean I to enrich my pain,

0:09:48 > 0:09:52To have his sight thither, and back again.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14THESEUS: Love, therefore, and tongue-tied simplicity

0:10:14 > 0:10:17In least speak most, to my capacity.

0:10:19 > 0:10:20- ALL:- Bottom!

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Good evening!

0:10:24 > 0:10:25God you good even, William!

0:10:27 > 0:10:30Good even and twenty, good Master Page!

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Mistress, what cheer!

0:10:41 > 0:10:43Fix thy resolution!

0:10:43 > 0:10:44Help from Athens calls!

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Trust me, now,

0:10:50 > 0:10:54Out of this silence yet I picked a welcome,

0:10:54 > 0:10:55And in the modesty... THEY BOO

0:10:55 > 0:10:58YOU'VE BEEN FRAMED THEME TUNE

0:11:00 > 0:11:03CHEERING

0:11:03 > 0:11:06Is all our company here?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08You were best to call them generally, man by man,

0:11:08 > 0:11:10according to the script.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Here is the scroll of every man's name,

0:11:13 > 0:11:16which is thought fit, through all Athens,

0:11:16 > 0:11:19to play in our interlude before the Duke and Duchess on his

0:11:19 > 0:11:21wedding day at night.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Our play is the most

0:11:23 > 0:11:27lamentable comedy and most cruel death of Pyramus

0:11:27 > 0:11:28and Thisbe.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31- Now! Answer as I call you. - I don't know that one.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35Nick Bottom, the weaver?

0:11:35 > 0:11:36Ready!

0:11:36 > 0:11:39You, Nick Bottom, are set down for Pyramus.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42What is Pyramus? A lover or a tyrant?

0:11:42 > 0:11:46A lover that kills himself, most gallant, for love.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49That will ask some tears in the true performing of it.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52If I do it, let the audience look to their eyes!

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Yeah, yeah - I shall move storms.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57I will condole, in some measure.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00Oh, oh... To the rest.

0:12:02 > 0:12:03Francis Flute, you...

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Yet my chief humour is for a tyrant.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09I could play Ercles rarely, or a part to tear a cat in,

0:12:09 > 0:12:10to make all split -

0:12:10 > 0:12:12"The raging rocks And

0:12:12 > 0:12:15"shivering shocks

0:12:15 > 0:12:16"Shall break the locks

0:12:16 > 0:12:18"Of prison gates."

0:12:18 > 0:12:20LAUGHTER

0:12:20 > 0:12:22- I-I... - "And Phibbus' car

0:12:22 > 0:12:24"Shall shine from far

0:12:24 > 0:12:26"And make and mar The

0:12:26 > 0:12:28"foolish Fates."

0:12:28 > 0:12:30CHEERING

0:12:30 > 0:12:32This was lofty!

0:12:32 > 0:12:36Yeah, now name the rest of the players.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39Francis Flute, the bellows-mender?

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Here, Mistress Quince.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43Flute, you must take Thisbe on you.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46What is Thisbe? A wandering knight?

0:12:46 > 0:12:48It is the lady that Pyramus must love.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50LAUGHTER

0:12:52 > 0:12:54To thine own self be true.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56You're a good man.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59Oh, oh, an I may hide my face, let me play Thisbe too.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02I'll speak in a monstrous little voice,

0:13:02 > 0:13:04HIGH-PITCHED VOICE: "Ah, Pyramus, my lover dear."

0:13:04 > 0:13:06- DEEPER VOICE: - "My Thisbe dear!"

0:13:06 > 0:13:09"I am a lady, dear."

0:13:09 > 0:13:12No, you must play Pyramus, and, Flute, you Thisbe.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14Well, proceed.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17Robin Starveling, the tailor?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19Tom Snout, the tinker?

0:13:19 > 0:13:20BOTH: Here, Mistress Quince.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23Robin Starveling, you must play Thisbe's mother.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Tom Snout, Pyramus' father.

0:13:25 > 0:13:30Myself, Pyramus' mother. And, er...

0:13:31 > 0:13:36..Snug, you join us, you the lion's part.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38And here I hope is a play fitted.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41Have you the lion's part written?

0:13:41 > 0:13:43Pray you, if it be, give it me.

0:13:43 > 0:13:44For I am slow of study.

0:13:44 > 0:13:47Oh, you may do it Extempal for it is nothing but roaring.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Oh!

0:13:49 > 0:13:51Let me play the lion too!

0:13:51 > 0:13:54I will roar that I will do any man's heart good to hear me.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56I will roar that I will make the Duke say,

0:13:56 > 0:13:59SCOTTISH ACCENT: "Let him roar again, let him roar again!"

0:13:59 > 0:14:02An you should do it too terribly you would fright

0:14:02 > 0:14:04the Duchess and the ladies that they would shriek!

0:14:04 > 0:14:06An that were enough to slay us all.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08That would slay us.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Yeah, every mother's son.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12No, I will aggravate my voice

0:14:12 > 0:14:16so that I will roar you as gently as any sucking dove.

0:14:16 > 0:14:20Yeah, yeah - I will roar you an 'twere any nightingale.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24Listen to this. Listen to this.

0:14:26 > 0:14:27QUIETLY: Roar.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29LAUGHTER

0:14:30 > 0:14:32See, told you!

0:14:32 > 0:14:35You must play no part but Pyramus!

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Yeah, well, I will undertake it, yeah.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40Oh - what beard were I best to play it in?

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Why, what you will.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46I will discharge it in either your straw-colour beard,

0:14:46 > 0:14:49your orange-tawny beard, your purple-in-grain beard,

0:14:49 > 0:14:52or your French-crown-colour beard, your perfect yellow.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Some of your French crowns have no hair at all.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57And then you will play it barefaced!

0:14:57 > 0:15:01SHE LAUGHS

0:15:08 > 0:15:10But, masters, here are your parts,

0:15:10 > 0:15:12and I entreat you,

0:15:12 > 0:15:16request you, desire you, to con them

0:15:16 > 0:15:20and meet me in the palace wood a mile without the town by moonlight.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22There will we rehearse,

0:15:22 > 0:15:25for if we meet in the city we will be dogged with company,

0:15:25 > 0:15:26and our devices known.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29I pray you, fail me not.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31At the Duke's Oak we meet!

0:15:31 > 0:15:37We will, and there we may rehearse most obscenely and courageously.

0:15:37 > 0:15:41- Take pains, be perfect. Adieu! ALL:- Adieu!

0:15:43 > 0:15:48- Adieu. Adieu.- Adieu.- Adieu.

0:15:49 > 0:15:54- Adieu. - Shut the door.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17SHE PANTS

0:16:37 > 0:16:40SHE SCREAMS

0:16:55 > 0:16:57SHE SCREAMS

0:17:16 > 0:17:20SNARLING

0:17:27 > 0:17:29SHE SHRIEKS

0:17:38 > 0:17:39Cobweb.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43THEY SNARL

0:17:44 > 0:17:50Never harm, nor spell, nor charm, Come our lovely lady nigh.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01THEY SCREAM

0:18:01 > 0:18:04Never harm, nor spell, nor charm, Come our lovely lady nigh.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23Ill met by moonlight, proud Titania!

0:18:23 > 0:18:25SHE CHUCKLES

0:18:25 > 0:18:27My jealous Oberon!

0:18:27 > 0:18:28Fairies, skip hence.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30I have forsworn his bed and company.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34Tarry, rash wanton! Am not I thy lord?

0:18:36 > 0:18:40Oh, then I must be thy lady!

0:18:40 > 0:18:44THEY LAUGH

0:18:44 > 0:18:46But I know

0:18:46 > 0:18:48When thou hast stolen away from Fairyland

0:18:48 > 0:18:51And in the shape of Corin sat all day

0:18:51 > 0:18:53Playing on pipes of corn, and versing love

0:18:53 > 0:18:55To amorous Phillida.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58How canst thou thus, for shame, Titania,

0:18:58 > 0:19:02Glance at my credit with fair Phillida,

0:19:02 > 0:19:04Knowing I know thy love to Hippolyta?

0:19:04 > 0:19:06These are the forgeries of jealousy!

0:19:06 > 0:19:08The bouncing Amazon!

0:19:08 > 0:19:13Your buskinned mistress and your warrior love to Theseus

0:19:13 > 0:19:15must be wedded!

0:19:51 > 0:19:57And now with thy brawls thou hast disturbed our sport.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03Therefore the winds, piping to us in vain,

0:20:03 > 0:20:06As in revenge have sucked up from the sea

0:20:06 > 0:20:10Contagious fogs which, falling on the land,

0:20:10 > 0:20:15Hath every pelting river made so proud

0:20:15 > 0:20:18That they have overborne their continents.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23Therefore the moon, the governess of floods,

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Pale in her anger, washes all the air,

0:20:26 > 0:20:29That rheumatic diseases do abound.

0:20:30 > 0:20:34And through this distemperature, we see

0:20:34 > 0:20:40The seasons alter - the spring, the summer,

0:20:40 > 0:20:44The childing autumn, angry winter, change

0:20:44 > 0:20:48Their wonted liveries, and the mazed world

0:20:48 > 0:20:54By their increase now knows not which is which.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58And this same progeny of evils

0:20:58 > 0:21:02Comes from our debate, from our dissension.

0:21:04 > 0:21:08We are their parents and original.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20The King doth keep his revels here tonight.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Take heed, and you might join him in this sight.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29Either I mistake your shape and making quite,

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Or else you are that shrewd and knavish sprite

0:21:32 > 0:21:33Called Robin Goodfellow.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36Are not you he?

0:21:36 > 0:21:38Thou speakest aright.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40I am that merry wanderer of the night.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43I jest to Oberon and make him smile.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Your Oberon is passing fell and wrath!

0:21:45 > 0:21:47Do you amend it, then.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50It lies in you.

0:21:51 > 0:21:56Why should Titania cross her Oberon?

0:21:57 > 0:22:00How long within this wood intend you stay?

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Perchance till after Theseus' wedding day.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06RUMBLING THUD

0:22:06 > 0:22:10Give me your hand and I will go with thee.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27Not for all thy fairy kingdom!

0:22:28 > 0:22:29SHE LAUGHS

0:22:29 > 0:22:32FAIRIES HISS AND SNARL

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Fairies, away!

0:22:35 > 0:22:39We shall chide downright if I longer stay!

0:22:39 > 0:22:42Well, go thy way!

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Thou shalt not from this grove

0:22:44 > 0:22:47Till I torment thee for this injury!

0:22:59 > 0:23:02My gentle Puck, come hither.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08Thou rememberest

0:23:08 > 0:23:10Since once I sat upon a promontory

0:23:10 > 0:23:12And heard a mermaid on a dolphin's back

0:23:12 > 0:23:15Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath

0:23:15 > 0:23:18That the rude sea grew civil at her song?

0:23:18 > 0:23:19I remember.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22That very time I saw - but thou couldst not -

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Flying between the cold moon and the Earth

0:23:25 > 0:23:28Cupid all arm'd.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30A certain aim he took,

0:23:30 > 0:23:33And marked I where the bolt of Cupid fell.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36It fell upon a little western flower,

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Before, milk-white, now purple with love's wound.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43The juice of it on sleeping eyelids laid

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Will make or man or woman madly dote

0:23:46 > 0:23:49Upon the next live creature that it sees.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51PUCK CHUCKLES

0:23:51 > 0:23:53I'll watch Titania when she is asleep,

0:23:53 > 0:23:56And drop the liquor of it in her eyes.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59The next thing then she, waking, looks upon -

0:23:59 > 0:24:02Be it on lion, bear, or wolf, or bull,

0:24:02 > 0:24:05On meddling monkey or on busy ape -

0:24:05 > 0:24:09She shall pursue it with the soul of love.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11PUCK CHUCKLES

0:24:13 > 0:24:16Fetch me this herb, and be thou here again

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Ere the leviathan can swim a league.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21I'll put a girdle round about the Earth...

0:24:23 > 0:24:25..in forty minutes!

0:24:26 > 0:24:28But who comes here?

0:24:28 > 0:24:30I love thee not, therefore pursue me not.

0:24:32 > 0:24:36Where is Lysander and fair Hermia?

0:24:36 > 0:24:39The one I'll slay, the other slayeth me.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42Hence, get thee gone, and follow me no more!

0:24:42 > 0:24:44You draw me, you hard-hearted adamant!

0:24:44 > 0:24:46But yet you draw not iron, for my heart

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Is true as steel. Leave you your power to draw,

0:24:48 > 0:24:50And I shall have no power to follow you.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Do I entice you? Do I speak you fair?

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Or rather do I not in plainest truth

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Tell you I do not nor I cannot love you?

0:24:56 > 0:24:58And even for that do I love you the more!

0:24:58 > 0:25:01But I am sick when I do look on thee!

0:25:01 > 0:25:03And I am sick when I look not on you!

0:25:03 > 0:25:05I will not stay thy questions. Let me go.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Or if thou follow me, do not believe

0:25:07 > 0:25:09But I shall do thee mischief in the wood.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12Aye - in the temple, in the town, the field,

0:25:12 > 0:25:14You do me mischief.

0:25:14 > 0:25:15Fie, Demetrius!

0:25:15 > 0:25:20I'll follow thee, and make a heaven of hell!

0:25:20 > 0:25:21Ohh!

0:25:21 > 0:25:23Oh, sorry.

0:25:23 > 0:25:24The dove pursues the griffin!

0:25:24 > 0:25:26The mild hind makes speed to catch the tiger!

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Fare thee well, nymph.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33I pray thee, give it me.

0:25:43 > 0:25:48I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,

0:25:48 > 0:25:52Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Quite overcanopied with luscious woodbine,

0:25:55 > 0:25:59With sweet muskroses and with eglantine.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05There sleeps Titania some time of the night.

0:26:05 > 0:26:09Lulled in these flowers with dances and delight.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16And there the snake throws her enamelled skin,

0:26:16 > 0:26:21Weed wide enough to wrap a fairy in.

0:26:21 > 0:26:25FAIRIES SNARL

0:26:26 > 0:26:28FAIRIES CHOKE

0:26:33 > 0:26:34FAIRIES SCREAM

0:26:38 > 0:26:41TITANIA MURMURS IN SLEEP

0:27:01 > 0:27:05What thou seest when thou dost wake,

0:27:05 > 0:27:09Do it for thy true love take.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29TWIG SNAPS

0:27:37 > 0:27:41Take thou some of it, and seek thou through this grove.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44A sweet Athenian lady is in love

0:27:44 > 0:27:46With a disdainful youth - anoint his eyes,

0:27:46 > 0:27:49But do it when the next thing he espies

0:27:49 > 0:27:52May be the lady. Thou shalt know the man

0:27:52 > 0:27:55By the Athenian garments he hath on.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59Effect it with some care, that he may prove

0:27:59 > 0:28:03More fond on her than she upon her love.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06And look thou meet me ere the first cock crow.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10Fear not, my lord, your servant shall do so.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21When thou wakest, it is thy dear.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27Wake when some vile thing is near.

0:28:43 > 0:28:46Fair love, I faint with wandering in the wood,

0:28:46 > 0:28:50And to speak truth, I have forgot our way.

0:28:50 > 0:28:53Ahh! Be it so, Lysander! Find you out a bed,

0:28:53 > 0:28:56For I upon this bank will rest my head.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58One turf shall serve as pillow for us both,

0:28:58 > 0:29:01One heart, one bed, two bosoms, and one troth.

0:29:01 > 0:29:05Two bosoms interchained with an oath,

0:29:05 > 0:29:09So then two bosoms and a single troth.

0:29:09 > 0:29:12Lysander riddles very prettily.

0:29:12 > 0:29:13Lie further off yet,

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Do not lie so near!

0:29:15 > 0:29:20Amen, amen, to that fair prayer say I,

0:29:20 > 0:29:25And then end life when I end loyalty.

0:29:32 > 0:29:35Night and silence, who is here?

0:29:35 > 0:29:38Weeds of Athens he doth wear.

0:29:38 > 0:29:43Here is my bed - sleep give thee all his rest.

0:29:43 > 0:29:46With half that wish, the wisher's eyes be pressed.

0:29:54 > 0:29:57Churl, upon thy eyes I throw

0:29:57 > 0:30:00All the power this charm doth owe.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05Stay, though thou kill me, sweet Demetrius!

0:30:05 > 0:30:09I charge thee, hence - and do not haunt me thus.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12O, wilt thou, darling, leave me? Do not so!

0:30:12 > 0:30:14Stay, on thy peril. I alone will go.

0:30:14 > 0:30:19O, I am out of breath in this fond chase.

0:30:19 > 0:30:23The more my prayer, the lesser is my grace.

0:30:23 > 0:30:27Happy is Hermia, wheresoe'er she lies,

0:30:27 > 0:30:31For she hath blessed and attractive eyes.

0:30:32 > 0:30:36How came her eyes so bright? Well, not with salt tears -

0:30:36 > 0:30:40If so, mine are oftener washed than hers.

0:30:41 > 0:30:46No, no - I am as ugly as a bear,

0:30:46 > 0:30:49For beasts that meet me run away for fear!

0:30:51 > 0:30:53But who is here?

0:30:53 > 0:30:57Lysander on the ground?

0:30:57 > 0:30:59Dead, or asleep?

0:30:59 > 0:31:02I see no blood, no wound.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06Lysander, if you live, good sir, awake!

0:31:13 > 0:31:17And run through fire I will for thy sweet sake!

0:31:17 > 0:31:21Transparent Helena, nature shows her art

0:31:21 > 0:31:24That through thy bosom makes me see thy heart.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27Where is Demetrius? O, how fit a word

0:31:27 > 0:31:30Is that vile name to perish on my sword!

0:31:30 > 0:31:32Do not say so, Lysander, say not so.

0:31:32 > 0:31:36What though he love your Hermia, lord, what though?

0:31:36 > 0:31:39Yet Hermia still loves you. Then be content.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Content with Hermia? No, I do repent

0:31:41 > 0:31:44The tedious minutes I with her have spent.

0:31:44 > 0:31:46Not Hermia, but Helena I love.

0:31:46 > 0:31:49Who will not change a raven for a dove?

0:31:49 > 0:31:53Wherefore was I to this keen mockery born?

0:31:53 > 0:31:56When at your hands did I deserve this scorn?

0:31:56 > 0:31:59Is't not enough, is't not enough, young man,

0:31:59 > 0:32:01That I did never - no, nor never can -

0:32:01 > 0:32:04Deserve a sweet look from Demetrius' eye

0:32:04 > 0:32:06But you must flout my insufficiency?!

0:32:06 > 0:32:09Now fare you well! Perforce I must confess

0:32:09 > 0:32:11I thought you, lord, of more true gentleness.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13Things growing are not ripe until their season.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16So I, being young, till now ripe not to reason!

0:32:16 > 0:32:18O, that a lady of one man refused

0:32:18 > 0:32:20Should of another therefore be abused!

0:32:20 > 0:32:22And touching now the point of human skill,

0:32:22 > 0:32:24Reason becomes the marshal to my will.

0:32:26 > 0:32:29Help me, Lysander, help me!

0:32:29 > 0:32:33Ay me, for pity!

0:32:33 > 0:32:36What a dream was here. Lysander, look...

0:32:36 > 0:32:40Lysander - what, removed?

0:32:41 > 0:32:43Lysander, lord!

0:32:43 > 0:32:45LYSANDER SPEAKS IN THE DISTANCE

0:32:45 > 0:32:49Lysander? Lysander?

0:32:49 > 0:32:53Lysander! Lysander!

0:32:56 > 0:32:59Here's a marvellous convenient place for our rehearsal.

0:33:12 > 0:33:15What hempen homespuns have we swaggering here

0:33:15 > 0:33:18So near to the cradle of the Fairy Queen?

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Now, Mistress Quince!

0:33:20 > 0:33:22There are things in this comedy of Pyramus and Thisbe

0:33:22 > 0:33:24that will never please.

0:33:24 > 0:33:26First, Pyramus must draw a sword to kill himself,

0:33:26 > 0:33:29which you ladies cannot abide. How answer you that?

0:33:29 > 0:33:31By'r lakin, a parlous fear!

0:33:31 > 0:33:34I believe we must leave the killing out, when all is done.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37Not a whit. I have a device to make all well.

0:33:37 > 0:33:40Write me a prologue, and let the prologue seem to say

0:33:40 > 0:33:42we will do no harm with our swords,

0:33:42 > 0:33:45and that Pyramus is not killed indeed,

0:33:45 > 0:33:47and for the more better assurance,

0:33:47 > 0:33:50tell them that I, Pyramus, am not Pyramus,

0:33:50 > 0:33:53but Bottom the weaver. This will put them out of fear.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56Will not you ladies be afeard of the lion?

0:33:56 > 0:33:59I fear it, I promise you!

0:33:59 > 0:34:02Masters, you ought to consider with yourself, to bring in -

0:34:02 > 0:34:04God shield us - a lion among ladies

0:34:04 > 0:34:07is a most dreadful thing, for there is not a more fearful

0:34:07 > 0:34:10wildfowl than your lion living, and we ought to look to't.

0:34:10 > 0:34:13Therefore another prologue must tell that he is not a lion.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15Nay, you must name his name,

0:34:15 > 0:34:18and half his face must be seen through the lion's neck,

0:34:18 > 0:34:22and he himself must speak through, saying thus, or to the same defect -

0:34:22 > 0:34:26"Ladies," or "Fair ladies, I would wish you,"

0:34:26 > 0:34:30or, "I would request you..." Ooh, no.

0:34:30 > 0:34:34No, "I would entreat you," yes, entreat, entreat, entreat,

0:34:34 > 0:34:37"I would entreat you not to fear, not to tremble.

0:34:37 > 0:34:40"My life for yours.

0:34:40 > 0:34:43"If you think I come hither as a lion, it were pity of my life.

0:34:43 > 0:34:51"No. I am no such thing. I am a man, as other men are."

0:34:51 > 0:34:53And there indeed let him name his name,

0:34:53 > 0:34:55and tell them plainly he is Snug the joiner.

0:34:55 > 0:34:58THEY CHEER

0:34:58 > 0:35:00If that may be, then all is well.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04Come, sit down, every mother's son, and rehearse your parts.

0:35:04 > 0:35:05Pyramus, you begin.

0:35:05 > 0:35:10Now, when you have spoken your speech, enter into that brake,

0:35:10 > 0:35:13and so everyone according to his cue.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15Speak, Pyramus!

0:35:16 > 0:35:20- Thisbe, stand forth!- Oh, yes... Yes.

0:35:21 > 0:35:24No, just a little bit... No, a little bit...

0:35:24 > 0:35:29Ooh, no. No, no. A little bit... Little bit. There.

0:35:32 > 0:35:36Thisbe, the flowers of odious savours sweet...

0:35:36 > 0:35:39- Odours!- What? - Odours!- Odours?- Odours.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41Odours. Odours, odours.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44Oh! Odours. Odours.

0:35:44 > 0:35:45Odours.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Oh, yeah! Odours.

0:35:48 > 0:35:49Ha-ha! Odours.

0:35:51 > 0:35:52HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:35:52 > 0:35:55The flowers of odious savours sweet.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58So hath thy breath, my dearest Thisbe, dear.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00But hark, a voice!

0:36:00 > 0:36:02Stay thou but here awhile,

0:36:02 > 0:36:04And by and by I will to thee appear.

0:36:04 > 0:36:06And then I go...

0:36:06 > 0:36:07PUCK LAUGHS

0:36:07 > 0:36:10Oh, a stranger Pyramus than e'er played here.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12- Must I speak now? - Ay, marry, must you,

0:36:12 > 0:36:16for you must understand he goes but to see a noise that he heard,

0:36:16 > 0:36:18and is to come again.

0:36:20 > 0:36:22Of colour like the red rose on triumphant briar,

0:36:22 > 0:36:24Most brisky juvenal, and eke most lovely Jew,

0:36:24 > 0:36:27As true as truest horse that yet would never tire,

0:36:27 > 0:36:29I'll meet thee, Pyramus, at Ninny's tomb...

0:36:29 > 0:36:34Ninus' tomb, man! Why, you must not speak that yet.

0:36:34 > 0:36:37That, you answer to Pyramus.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Sweet moon, I thank thee for thy sunny beams,

0:36:39 > 0:36:42I thank thee, moon, for shining now so bright,

0:36:42 > 0:36:45For, by thy gracious, golden, glittering...

0:36:45 > 0:36:46gleams,

0:36:46 > 0:36:48I trust to take of truest Thisbe sight.

0:36:48 > 0:36:52But stay - O spite! But mark, poor knight,

0:36:52 > 0:36:53What dreadful dole is here?

0:36:53 > 0:36:56Eyes, do you see? How can it be?

0:36:56 > 0:36:58O dainty duck, O dear!

0:37:02 > 0:37:05Pyramus, enter!

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Your cue is past.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09It is "never tire".

0:37:10 > 0:37:14As true as truest horse, that yet would never tire.

0:37:14 > 0:37:17He said, "never tire".

0:37:19 > 0:37:23As true as truest horse, that yet would never tire.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25RUSTLING IN BUSHES

0:37:27 > 0:37:31If I were fair, fair Thisbe, I were only thine.

0:37:31 > 0:37:33O monstrous!

0:37:36 > 0:37:38O strange!

0:37:38 > 0:37:40We are haunted!

0:37:40 > 0:37:44Bless thee, Bottom! Thou art translated!

0:37:44 > 0:37:48O Bottom, thou art changed. What do I see on thee?

0:37:48 > 0:37:51What do you see? You see an ass head of your own, do you?

0:37:51 > 0:37:57HE BRAYS THEY SCREAM

0:38:01 > 0:38:04PANICKED SHOUTING PUCK CACKLES

0:38:11 > 0:38:13Why do you run away?

0:38:13 > 0:38:18Oh! Oh! This is a knavery of you to make me afeard!

0:38:18 > 0:38:21HE CHUCKLES

0:38:21 > 0:38:23I see your knavery!

0:38:23 > 0:38:28This is to make an ass of me, to fright me, if you could.

0:38:31 > 0:38:34But I will walk up and down here,

0:38:34 > 0:38:38and I will sing, that they shall hear I am not afraid.

0:38:41 > 0:38:45# The ousel cock so black of hue

0:38:45 > 0:38:48# With orange-tawny bill

0:38:48 > 0:38:53# The throstle with his note so true

0:38:53 > 0:38:57# The wren with little quill

0:39:19 > 0:39:24What angel wakes me from my flowery bed?

0:39:24 > 0:39:26Good evening.

0:39:26 > 0:39:31I pray thee, gentle mortal, sing again!

0:39:31 > 0:39:32Oh!

0:39:32 > 0:39:36Mine ear is much enamoured of thy note.

0:39:36 > 0:39:41So is mine eye enthralled to thy shape,

0:39:41 > 0:39:45And thy fair virtue's force perforce doth move me

0:39:45 > 0:39:52On the first view to say, to swear, I love thee.

0:39:52 > 0:39:57Methinks, mistress, you should have little reason for that.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59And yet, to say the truth,

0:39:59 > 0:40:02reason and love keep little company together nowadays.

0:40:03 > 0:40:09Thou art as wise as thou art beautiful.

0:40:09 > 0:40:13Not so, neither, but if I had wit enough to get out of

0:40:13 > 0:40:16this wood, I have enough to serve mine own turn...

0:40:16 > 0:40:19Out of this wood do not desire to go!

0:40:19 > 0:40:23Thou shall remain here, whether thou wilt or no.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26I am a spirit of no common rate.

0:40:26 > 0:40:30The summer still doth tend upon my state,

0:40:51 > 0:40:56Be kind and courteous to this gentleman.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01Yes, your name, I beseech you, sir?

0:41:01 > 0:41:03SHE SCREAMS

0:41:07 > 0:41:12Hop in his walks and gambol in his eyes.

0:41:12 > 0:41:17Feed him with apricocks and dewberries,

0:41:17 > 0:41:22With purple grapes, green figs, and mulberries.

0:41:23 > 0:41:27The honey bags steal from the humble bees,

0:41:27 > 0:41:32And for night-tapers crop their waxen thighs

0:41:32 > 0:41:36And light them at the fiery glow-worms' eyes,

0:41:41 > 0:41:42'Ey up. Oh!

0:42:28 > 0:42:32Tie up my lover's tongue! Bring him silently.

0:42:34 > 0:42:35Oh!

0:42:39 > 0:42:41No, no, no...

0:42:59 > 0:43:02My mistress with a monster is in love!

0:43:02 > 0:43:05THEY LAUGH

0:43:05 > 0:43:07Come, come, come!

0:43:07 > 0:43:10Near to her close and consecrated bower,

0:43:10 > 0:43:13While she was in her dull and sleeping hour,

0:43:13 > 0:43:16A crew of patches, rude mechanicals

0:43:16 > 0:43:18That work for bread upon Athenian stalls,

0:43:18 > 0:43:20Were met together to rehearse a play

0:43:20 > 0:43:23Intended for great Theseus' nuptial day.

0:43:23 > 0:43:26The shallowest thickskin of that barren sort,

0:43:26 > 0:43:28Who Pyramus presented, in their sport

0:43:28 > 0:43:30Forsook his scene and entered in a brake,

0:43:30 > 0:43:33When I did him at this advantage take.

0:43:34 > 0:43:38An ass's nole I fixed on his head.

0:43:38 > 0:43:41Anon his Thisbe must be answered,

0:43:41 > 0:43:46And forth my mimic comes. When they him spy...

0:43:46 > 0:43:48HE WHOOPS EXCITEDLY

0:43:51 > 0:43:54THEY LAUGH

0:43:54 > 0:43:58So at his sight away his fellows fly!

0:43:58 > 0:44:01When in that moment - so it came to pass -

0:44:01 > 0:44:05Titania waked, and straightway loved an ass.

0:44:05 > 0:44:07HE CACKLES

0:44:09 > 0:44:12This falls out better than I could devise!

0:44:32 > 0:44:34If thou hast slain Lysander in his sleep,

0:44:34 > 0:44:37Being o'er shoes in blood, plunge in the deep!

0:44:37 > 0:44:39It cannot be but thou hast murdered him.

0:44:39 > 0:44:42So should a murderer look, so dead, so grim.

0:44:42 > 0:44:45So should the murdered look, and so should I,

0:44:45 > 0:44:48Pierced through the heart with your stern cruelty.

0:44:48 > 0:44:52Yet you, the murderer, look as bright, as clear,

0:44:52 > 0:44:54As yonder Venus in her glimmering sphere.

0:44:54 > 0:44:57What's this to my Lysander? Where is he?

0:44:57 > 0:44:59Ah, good Demetrius, wilt thou give him me?

0:44:59 > 0:45:02You spend your passion on a misprised mood.

0:45:02 > 0:45:04I am not guilty of Lysander's blood.

0:45:04 > 0:45:06Nor is he dead, for aught that I can tell.

0:45:06 > 0:45:10I pray thee, tell me then that he is well.

0:45:10 > 0:45:12And if I could, what should I get therefore?

0:45:12 > 0:45:13A privilege never to see me more!

0:45:13 > 0:45:15Now I will follow you, in this fierce vein!

0:45:15 > 0:45:18And therefore at your side I will remain.

0:45:21 > 0:45:23But sorrow's heaviness...

0:45:24 > 0:45:26..doth heavier grow.

0:45:29 > 0:45:32Stay close. This is the same Athenian.

0:45:34 > 0:45:39That was the woman, but not this the man.

0:45:40 > 0:45:43What hast thou done? Thou hast mistaken quite,

0:45:43 > 0:45:46And laid the love juice on some true love's sight.

0:45:49 > 0:45:51About the wood go swifter than the wind,

0:45:51 > 0:45:54And Helena of Athens look thou find.

0:45:54 > 0:45:57By some illusion see thou bring her here.

0:45:57 > 0:46:00I'll charm his eyes against she do appear.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02- HIGH-PITCHED VOICE: - I go, I go, look how I go.

0:46:02 > 0:46:05Swifter than arrow from the Tartar's bow.

0:46:07 > 0:46:10Flower of this purple dye,

0:46:10 > 0:46:12Hit with Cupid's archery,

0:46:12 > 0:46:16Sink in apple of his eye.

0:46:23 > 0:46:25Captain of our fairy band,

0:46:25 > 0:46:26Helena is here at hand,

0:46:26 > 0:46:28And the youth mistook by me,

0:46:28 > 0:46:30Pleading for a lover's fee.

0:46:33 > 0:46:34Shall we their fond pageant see?

0:46:37 > 0:46:40Lord, what fools these mortals be!

0:46:40 > 0:46:42HE CACKLES

0:46:48 > 0:46:50DISTANT VOICES

0:46:52 > 0:46:54Why should you think that I should woo in scorn?

0:46:54 > 0:46:59Look when I vow, I weep, my vows new born!

0:46:59 > 0:47:02You do advance your cunning more and more!

0:47:02 > 0:47:05These vows are Hermia's. Will you give her o'er?

0:47:05 > 0:47:07I had no judgment when to her I swore.

0:47:07 > 0:47:09Nor none in my mind now you give me more!

0:47:09 > 0:47:12Demetrius loves her, and he loves not you.

0:47:12 > 0:47:16Lysander, godlike,

0:47:16 > 0:47:20nymph, perfect, divine.

0:47:20 > 0:47:21Nymph?!

0:47:21 > 0:47:24To what, my love, shall I compare thine eyne?

0:47:24 > 0:47:26You are unkind, Demetrius. Be not so,

0:47:26 > 0:47:28For you love Hermia - this you know I know.

0:47:28 > 0:47:33Crystal is muddy! O, how ripe in show

0:47:33 > 0:47:37Thy lips, those kissing cherries, tempting grow!

0:47:37 > 0:47:39That pure congealed white, high Taurus' snow,

0:47:39 > 0:47:43Fanned with the eastern wind, turns to a crow

0:47:43 > 0:47:47When thou holdest up thy hand. O, let me kiss.

0:47:47 > 0:47:48Kiss?!

0:47:48 > 0:47:52This prince is of pure white, now seal my bliss!

0:47:52 > 0:47:56O spite! O hell! I see you are all bent

0:47:56 > 0:47:58To set against me for your merriment.

0:47:58 > 0:48:02If you were men, as men you are in show,

0:48:02 > 0:48:04You would not use a gentle lady so.

0:48:04 > 0:48:07O, Lysander.

0:48:07 > 0:48:10Lysander, lose thy Hermia. I will none.

0:48:10 > 0:48:13If e'er I loved her all that love is gone.

0:48:13 > 0:48:16My heart to her but as guestwise sojourned,

0:48:16 > 0:48:20- And now to 'Sander...- Ow! - ..is it home returned.

0:48:37 > 0:48:42Goddess, nymph, perfect, divine,

0:48:42 > 0:48:45To what, my love, shall I compare thine eyne?

0:48:45 > 0:48:48You both are rivals and love Hermia,

0:48:48 > 0:48:51And now both rivals to mock Helena!

0:48:51 > 0:48:53Thou art not by mine eye, Lysander, found,

0:48:53 > 0:48:56Mine ear, I thank it, brought me to thy sound!

0:48:56 > 0:48:58But why unkindly didst thou leave me so?

0:48:58 > 0:49:02Why should he stay whom love doth press to go?

0:49:02 > 0:49:04What love could press Lysander from my side?

0:49:04 > 0:49:07Lysander's love, that would not let him bide.

0:49:07 > 0:49:09Fair Helena, who more engilds the night

0:49:09 > 0:49:11Than all yon fiery oes and eyes of light.

0:49:11 > 0:49:14You speak not as you think. It cannot be.

0:49:14 > 0:49:16Lo, she is one of this confederacy.

0:49:16 > 0:49:19Now I perceive they have conjoined all three

0:49:19 > 0:49:22To fashion this false sport in spite of me.

0:49:22 > 0:49:25Injurious Hermia, most ungrateful maid,

0:49:25 > 0:49:28Have you conspired, have you with these contrived

0:49:28 > 0:49:30To bait me with this foul derision?

0:49:30 > 0:49:32And will you rent our ancient love asunder,

0:49:32 > 0:49:36To join with men in scorning your poor friend?

0:49:36 > 0:49:38It is not friendly, 'tis not maidenly.

0:49:38 > 0:49:40I understand not what you mean by this.

0:49:40 > 0:49:43Ay, do! Persever, counterfeit sad looks,

0:49:43 > 0:49:46Make mouths upon me when I turn my back!

0:49:47 > 0:49:51Fare ye well. 'Tis partly my own fault,

0:49:51 > 0:49:54Which death or absence soon shall remedy.

0:49:54 > 0:49:56Stay, gentle Helena, hear my excuse,

0:49:56 > 0:50:00My love, my life, my soul, fair Helena!

0:50:09 > 0:50:12Hang off, thou cat, thou burr! Vile thing, let loose,

0:50:12 > 0:50:14Or I will shake thee from me like a serpent.

0:50:14 > 0:50:17Why are you grown so rude? What change is this,

0:50:17 > 0:50:18Sweet love?

0:50:18 > 0:50:21Thy love? Out, tawny Tartar, out.

0:50:21 > 0:50:25Out, loathed medicine! O hated potion, hence!

0:50:25 > 0:50:27Do you not jest?

0:50:27 > 0:50:30Am not I Hermia? Are not you Lysander?

0:50:34 > 0:50:38Be certain. Nothing truer, 'tis no jest

0:50:38 > 0:50:42That I do hate thee and love Helena.

0:50:44 > 0:50:48O me, you juggler, you canker-blossom,

0:51:11 > 0:51:14Ay, that way goes the game.

0:51:15 > 0:51:18Now I perceive she hath made compare

0:51:18 > 0:51:21with our statures. She hath urged her height!

0:51:21 > 0:51:23So are you grown this high in his esteem

0:51:23 > 0:51:26Because I am so dwarfish and so low?

0:51:26 > 0:51:29I pray you, though you mock me, gentlemen,

0:51:29 > 0:51:32Let her not hurt me. I was never curst.

0:51:32 > 0:51:34I have no gift at all in shrewishness.

0:52:20 > 0:52:22Good Hermia!

0:52:26 > 0:52:27I evermore did love you, Hermia,

0:52:37 > 0:52:39I told him of your stealth unto this wood.

0:52:40 > 0:52:45He followed you. For love I followed him.

0:53:44 > 0:53:47Be not afraid, he shall not claim thee, Helena!

0:53:47 > 0:53:49No, sir! You shall not, though you take her part!

0:53:49 > 0:53:50You are too officious

0:53:50 > 0:53:53In her behalf that scorns your services.

0:57:09 > 0:57:12Thus to make poor females mad.

0:57:12 > 0:57:14I have one. Come three more,

0:57:14 > 0:57:17Two of both kinds make up four.

0:57:22 > 0:57:23When thou wakest,

0:57:23 > 0:57:25Thou takest

0:57:25 > 0:57:26True delight

0:57:26 > 0:57:27In the sight

0:57:27 > 0:57:30Of thy former lady's eye.

0:57:33 > 0:57:35Jack shall have Jill,

0:57:35 > 0:57:36Nought shall go ill.

0:57:36 > 0:57:41The man shall have his mare again, and all shall be well.

0:57:43 > 0:57:45- BOTTOM:- Ohh!

0:57:45 > 0:57:49TITANIA: I will purge thy mortal grossness so.

0:57:52 > 0:57:54TITANIA AND BOTTOM GIGGLE

0:57:57 > 0:58:00Ahh...

0:58:00 > 0:58:05Come, sit thee down upon this flowery bed

0:58:05 > 0:58:10While I thy amiable cheeks do coy,

0:58:10 > 0:58:15And stick muskroses in thy sleek, smooth head,

0:58:15 > 0:58:20And kiss thy fair large...ears...

0:58:25 > 0:58:27..my gentle joy.

0:58:27 > 0:58:28Ugh...

0:58:31 > 0:58:33Ah.

0:58:34 > 0:58:36Where's Peaseblossom?

0:58:36 > 0:58:37Ready.

0:58:37 > 0:58:39Scratch my head, Peaseblossom.

0:58:46 > 0:58:48Where's Monsieur Cobweb?

0:58:48 > 0:58:50Ready.

0:58:50 > 0:58:53Good Monsieur, bring me a honey bag, signior.

0:58:57 > 0:58:59Where's Monsieur Mustardseed?

0:59:01 > 0:59:02What's your will?

0:59:02 > 0:59:05Nothing, good Monsieur, but to help Peaseblossom

0:59:05 > 0:59:06to scratch.

0:59:08 > 0:59:11I must to the barber's, Monsieur, for methinks

0:59:11 > 0:59:15I am marvellous hairy about the face.

0:59:15 > 0:59:20Now say, sweet love, what thou desirest to eat.

0:59:22 > 0:59:27Truly, a peck of provender. I could munch your good dry oats.

0:59:27 > 0:59:31Methinks I have a great desire to a bottle of hay.

0:59:31 > 0:59:34Good hay, sweet hay hath no fellow.

0:59:36 > 0:59:39I have a venturous fairy shall seek

0:59:39 > 0:59:45The squirrel's hoard, and fetch thee new nuts.

0:59:47 > 0:59:50I had rather have a handful or two of dried pease.

0:59:53 > 0:59:57But, I pray you, let none of your people stir me.

0:59:57 > 1:00:01I have an exposition of sleep come upon me.

1:00:01 > 1:00:03HE YAWNS

1:00:03 > 1:00:08Sleep thou, and I will wind thee in my arms.

1:00:11 > 1:00:15Fairies, be gone, and be all ways away.

1:00:18 > 1:00:23So doth the woodbine the sweet honeysuckle

1:00:23 > 1:00:26Gently entwist, the female ivy so

1:00:26 > 1:00:31Enrings the barky fingers of the elm.

1:00:31 > 1:00:34O, how I love thee!

1:00:34 > 1:00:37How I dote on thee!

1:00:47 > 1:00:49FLATULENCE

1:00:50 > 1:00:55Her dotage now I do begin to pity.

1:00:55 > 1:00:58THEY CHUCKLE

1:01:01 > 1:01:04Be as thou wast wont to be,

1:01:04 > 1:01:08See as thou wast wont to see.

1:01:08 > 1:01:11Now, my Titania,

1:01:11 > 1:01:14wake you, my sweet queen!

1:01:25 > 1:01:27Oh!

1:01:27 > 1:01:31My Oberon, what visions have I seen!

1:01:32 > 1:01:36Methought I was enamoured of an ass.

1:01:36 > 1:01:37There lies your love.

1:01:41 > 1:01:44How came these things to pass?

1:01:45 > 1:01:49O, how mine eyes do loathe your visage now!

1:01:49 > 1:01:54But thou and I are new in amity,

1:01:54 > 1:01:56And will tomorrow midnight solemnly

1:01:56 > 1:02:00Dance in Duke Theseus's house triumphantly,

1:02:00 > 1:02:04And bring to that lord his true destiny.

1:02:04 > 1:02:10Fairy king, attend, and mark, I do hear the morning lark.

1:02:10 > 1:02:14Then, my queen, in silence sad,

1:02:14 > 1:02:17Trip we after the night's shade.

1:02:17 > 1:02:19We the globe can compass soon,

1:02:19 > 1:02:21Swifter than the wandering moon.

1:02:21 > 1:02:23We are spirits of another sort.

1:02:23 > 1:02:27And I with the morning's love have oft made sport,

1:02:27 > 1:02:29And like a forester the groves may tread

1:02:29 > 1:02:32Even till the eastern gate all fiery red

1:02:32 > 1:02:36Opening on Neptune with fair blessed beams

1:02:36 > 1:02:40Turns into yellow gold his salt green streams...

1:02:57 > 1:03:00But soft, what nymphs are these?

1:03:04 > 1:03:06Pardon, my lord!

1:03:06 > 1:03:07No doubt you rose up early to observe

1:03:07 > 1:03:11The rite of May, and hearing our intent

1:03:11 > 1:03:13Came here in grace of our solemnity.

1:03:15 > 1:03:17But speak, Egeus. Is not this the day

1:03:17 > 1:03:19That Hermia should give answer of her choice?

1:03:19 > 1:03:21It is, my lord.

1:03:23 > 1:03:25I pray you all, stand up.

1:03:27 > 1:03:29I know you two are rival enemies.

1:03:29 > 1:03:32How comes this gentle concord in the world?

1:03:32 > 1:03:36My lord, I shall reply amazedly, Half sleep, half waking.

1:03:36 > 1:03:37But as yet, I swear...

1:03:37 > 1:03:41Enough, enough. My lord, you have enough!

1:03:42 > 1:03:45I beg the law, the law upon his head!

1:03:47 > 1:03:48They would have stolen away,

1:03:48 > 1:03:50- But...- They would, Demetrius,

1:03:50 > 1:03:55Thereby to have defeated you and me.

1:03:55 > 1:03:57My good lord - I wot not by what power,

1:03:57 > 1:04:01But by some power it is - my love to Hermia,

1:04:01 > 1:04:04Melted as the snow, seems to me now

1:04:04 > 1:04:06As the remembrance of an idle gaud

1:04:06 > 1:04:08Which in my childhood I did dote upon.

1:04:09 > 1:04:12And all the faith, the virtue of my heart,

1:04:12 > 1:04:14The object and the pleasure of mine eye,

1:04:14 > 1:04:17Is only...Helena.

1:04:24 > 1:04:27Egeus, I will overbear your will.

1:04:27 > 1:04:29For in the temple by and by with us

1:04:29 > 1:04:31These couples shall eternally be knit.

1:04:34 > 1:04:36And - for the morning now is something worn -

1:04:36 > 1:04:38Our purposed hunting shall be set aside.

1:04:38 > 1:04:41Away with us to Athens. Three and three,

1:04:41 > 1:04:43We'll hold a feast in great solemnity.

1:04:43 > 1:04:46Uncouple in the western valley! Let them go!

1:04:57 > 1:05:00These things seem small and undistinguishable,

1:05:00 > 1:05:03Like far-off mountains turned into clouds.

1:05:03 > 1:05:06It seems to me, that yet we sleep, we dream...

1:05:18 > 1:05:20HE GROANS

1:05:23 > 1:05:24Heigh ho!

1:05:25 > 1:05:28Mistress Quince!

1:05:28 > 1:05:30Flute...?

1:05:30 > 1:05:31Er...

1:05:31 > 1:05:35God's my life - stolen hence and left me asleep!

1:05:40 > 1:05:43I've had a most rare vision.

1:05:43 > 1:05:47I have had a dream past the wit of man to say what dream it was...

1:05:49 > 1:05:51Methought I was...

1:05:52 > 1:05:54there is no man can tell what.

1:05:55 > 1:05:56No, methought I was...

1:05:58 > 1:06:00methought I...

1:06:00 > 1:06:03Oh! Man is but a patched fool if he will offer to say

1:06:03 > 1:06:04what my dream was...

1:06:07 > 1:06:10and I...and she...

1:06:10 > 1:06:11Oooh...

1:06:16 > 1:06:21I will get Mistress Quince to write the ballad of this dream. Yes, yes.

1:06:21 > 1:06:23It shall be called Bottom's Dream,

1:06:23 > 1:06:25for it hath no bottom.

1:06:25 > 1:06:29And I will sing it in the latter end of the play! Before the Duke!

1:06:29 > 1:06:31THE PLAY! THE DUKE!

1:06:31 > 1:06:32Oh! Oooh!

1:06:41 > 1:06:45CROWD CHANT: Theseus! Theseus!

1:06:52 > 1:06:53Where are these lads?!

1:06:56 > 1:06:58Bottom!

1:06:58 > 1:07:00Where are these hearts?!

1:07:00 > 1:07:04O most courageous day!

1:07:04 > 1:07:06We are transported!

1:07:12 > 1:07:17CROWD CHEER

1:07:17 > 1:07:20O most happy hour!

1:07:21 > 1:07:24The old mechanicals!

1:07:29 > 1:07:32Get your apparel! Good strings! New ribbons!

1:07:32 > 1:07:35The Duke hath dined! The Duke hath dined!!

1:07:38 > 1:07:41FIREWORKS CRACKLE

1:08:07 > 1:08:11Here come the lovers, full of joy...

1:08:13 > 1:08:15..and mirth!

1:08:38 > 1:08:40APPLAUSE CONTINUES

1:08:50 > 1:08:52Methinks I see these things with parted eye,

1:08:52 > 1:08:54When everything seems double.

1:08:56 > 1:08:57So methinks,

1:08:57 > 1:09:01Now I have found Demetrius, like a jewel,

1:09:01 > 1:09:04Mine own but not mine own.

1:09:04 > 1:09:06Are you sure, that we are...?

1:09:08 > 1:09:12'Tis strange, O Theseus, that these lovers speak of.

1:09:12 > 1:09:14More strange than true.

1:09:14 > 1:09:15I never may believe

1:09:15 > 1:09:19These antique fables, nor these fairy toys.

1:09:19 > 1:09:22Lovers and madmen have such seething brains,

1:09:22 > 1:09:24Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend

1:09:24 > 1:09:27More than cool reason ever comprehends.

1:09:27 > 1:09:29So in the night, imagining some fear,

1:09:29 > 1:09:32How easy is a bush supposed a bear?

1:09:32 > 1:09:35But all the story of the night told over.

1:09:44 > 1:09:46GUNS CLICK

1:09:58 > 1:10:00What revels are in hand?

1:10:00 > 1:10:03Is there no play To ease the anguish of a torturing hour?

1:10:03 > 1:10:06There's a brief how many sports are ripe.

1:10:06 > 1:10:08What masques,

1:10:08 > 1:10:11what...what dances shall we have?

1:10:11 > 1:10:14HE SIGHS AND LAUGHS SCATHINGLY

1:10:14 > 1:10:16"A tedious brief scene of young Pyramus

1:10:16 > 1:10:19"And his love Thisbe - very tragical mirth."

1:10:19 > 1:10:20Ha!

1:10:21 > 1:10:23Merry and tragical?

1:10:23 > 1:10:24HE LAUGHS SCATHINGLY

1:10:24 > 1:10:27Tedious and brief? Ha!

1:10:27 > 1:10:30N-No, no, my noble lord, It's... It's not for you.

1:10:31 > 1:10:32We will hear it.

1:10:43 > 1:10:44Ha!

1:10:44 > 1:10:46Hard-handed folk that work in Athens here,

1:10:46 > 1:10:48Which never laboured in their minds till now.

1:10:48 > 1:10:50APPLAUSE

1:10:55 > 1:10:57Oh...

1:10:57 > 1:10:59HE SCOFFS

1:11:03 > 1:11:07If we offend it is with our good will.

1:11:09 > 1:11:12That you should think we come not to offend

1:11:12 > 1:11:14But with good will

1:11:15 > 1:11:18To show our simple skill,

1:11:18 > 1:11:21That is the true beginning of our end.

1:11:22 > 1:11:27Consider then we come... but in despite.

1:11:27 > 1:11:31We do not come as minding to content you,

1:11:31 > 1:11:32Our true intent is.

1:11:33 > 1:11:36All for your delight We are not here.

1:11:38 > 1:11:41That you should here repent you.

1:11:42 > 1:11:46The actors are at hand,

1:11:46 > 1:11:47and by their show

1:11:47 > 1:11:52You shall know all that you are like to know.

1:11:59 > 1:12:03She hath rid her prologue like a rough colt, she knows not the stop.

1:12:03 > 1:12:04SOME LAUGHTER

1:12:04 > 1:12:06Her speech was like a tangled chain -

1:12:06 > 1:12:09Nothing impaired, but all disordered.

1:12:09 > 1:12:11SOME LAUGHTER

1:12:11 > 1:12:13Who is next?

1:12:13 > 1:12:16GRUNTING AND GROANING

1:12:24 > 1:12:28HE GRUNTS AND GROANS

1:12:31 > 1:12:34GROANING SLOWLY DIES DOWN

1:12:36 > 1:12:37HE SCOFFS

1:12:37 > 1:12:42In this same interlude it doth befall

1:12:42 > 1:12:46That I - one Snout by name - present a wall.

1:12:46 > 1:12:49And such a wall as I would have you think

1:12:49 > 1:12:53That had in it a crannied hole or chink,

1:12:53 > 1:12:56Through which the lovers, Pyramus and Thisbe,

1:12:56 > 1:13:00Did whisper often, very secretly.

1:13:00 > 1:13:04This loam, this roughcast, and this stone doth show

1:13:04 > 1:13:09That I am that same wall - the truth is so.

1:13:13 > 1:13:15BOTTOM MURMURS APPRECIATIVELY

1:13:15 > 1:13:16Very good.

1:13:16 > 1:13:22O grim-looked night, O night with hue so black,

1:13:22 > 1:13:26O night which ever art when day is not!

1:13:26 > 1:13:31O night, O night, alack, alack, alack,

1:13:31 > 1:13:34I fear my Thisbe's promise is forgot!

1:13:34 > 1:13:39And thou, O wall, O sweet, O lovely wall,

1:13:39 > 1:13:43Which standest between her father's ground and mine,

1:13:43 > 1:13:49Thou wall, O wall, O sweet and lovely wall,

1:13:49 > 1:13:52Show me thy chink to blink through with mine eyne.

1:13:52 > 1:13:55GRUNTING

1:13:55 > 1:13:57THESEUS SCOFFS Thanks, courteous wall.

1:13:57 > 1:14:00Jove shield thee well for this.

1:14:01 > 1:14:05What see I? No Thisbe do I see.

1:14:05 > 1:14:09O wicked wall, through whom I see no bliss,

1:14:09 > 1:14:12Cursed be thy stones for thus deceiving me!

1:14:12 > 1:14:15The wall, methinks, being sensible, should curse again.

1:14:15 > 1:14:18OUT OF CHARACTER: No, in truth, sir, he should not.

1:14:18 > 1:14:20MURMURING

1:14:22 > 1:14:25"Deceiving me" is Thisbe's cue. She is to enter now,

1:14:25 > 1:14:28- and I am to spy her through the wall.- (Bottom!)

1:14:28 > 1:14:31- You shall see - it will fall pat as I told you.- (No, no, Bottom...)

1:14:31 > 1:14:33Yonder she comes.

1:14:33 > 1:14:34(Bottom, Bottom!)

1:14:35 > 1:14:37IN CHARACTER: Yonder she comes!

1:14:38 > 1:14:42- FLUTE:- Oh, where is Pyramus, most lilywhite of hue?

1:14:44 > 1:14:47O, wall, full often hast thou heard my moans

1:14:47 > 1:14:50For parting my fair Pyramus and me.

1:14:50 > 1:14:52My cherry lips have often kiss'd thy stones,

1:14:52 > 1:14:56Thy stones with lime and hair knit up in thee.

1:14:56 > 1:14:58I see a voice. Now will I to the chink

1:14:58 > 1:15:00To spy an I can hear my Thisbe's face.

1:15:02 > 1:15:03Thisbe!

1:15:03 > 1:15:06- FLUTE GASPS - My love!

1:15:06 > 1:15:08Thou art my love, II think?

1:15:08 > 1:15:12- O, kiss me through the hole of this vile wall!- All right.

1:15:12 > 1:15:15OUT OF CHARACTER: Nah, I can't really do it. I can't do it, I can't do it.

1:15:15 > 1:15:18I-I kiss the wall's hole, not your lips at all.

1:15:18 > 1:15:21- IN CHARACTER: Wilt thou at Ninny's Tomb...- "Ninus'."

1:15:21 > 1:15:23..Ninus' Tomb meet me straight way?

1:15:23 > 1:15:26Tide life, tide death, I come without delay.

1:15:27 > 1:15:30OUT OF CHARACTER: Ninus' tomb, I know. I always get... I know.

1:15:30 > 1:15:34Thus have I, wall, my part discharged so,

1:15:34 > 1:15:37And being done, thus wall away doth go.

1:15:37 > 1:15:40- HE GRUNTS - Right...

1:15:40 > 1:15:45GRUNTING AND GROANING

1:15:45 > 1:15:47Thank you...thank you...

1:15:49 > 1:15:52Argh, argh! Ooh! Ooh, me finger...

1:15:53 > 1:15:56This is the silliest stuff that I have ever heard!

1:15:56 > 1:15:57Ha!

1:15:57 > 1:15:59I wonder if the lion be to speak.

1:15:59 > 1:16:02One lion may, when many asses do!

1:16:05 > 1:16:08You, ladies - you whose gentle hearts do fear

1:16:08 > 1:16:12The smallest monstrous mouse that creeps on floor

1:16:12 > 1:16:16May now, perchance, both quake and tremble here,

1:16:16 > 1:16:20When lion rough in wildest rage doth ROAR!

1:16:22 > 1:16:25Then know that I as Snug the joiner am.

1:16:25 > 1:16:28OUT OF CHARACTER: It's me, I'm...I'm Snug. I'm Sn...

1:16:28 > 1:16:30(Get on with it!)

1:16:30 > 1:16:34IN CHARACTER: A-A lion fell, nor else no lion's dam,

1:16:34 > 1:16:37For if I should as lion come in strife

1:16:37 > 1:16:41Into this place, 'twere pity on my life.

1:16:43 > 1:16:47This lanthorn doth the horned moon present...

1:16:47 > 1:16:50He should have worn the horns on his head.

1:16:56 > 1:17:00This lanthorn doth the horned moon present...

1:17:00 > 1:17:04He is no crescent! And his horns are invisible within the circumference.

1:17:04 > 1:17:06This lanthorn doth the horned moon present -

1:17:06 > 1:17:10Myself the man in the moon do seem to be.

1:17:10 > 1:17:12Ah, this is the greatest error of all the rest.
