II. Arrange the events properly. Write the letter (A-B-C-D-E) on the blank before each scene.
________As dawn breaks, Theseus, Hippolyta and Egeus enter the woods as part of a hunting party. They come upon the two sleeping
couples. The couples explain themselves and make their cases before the Duke. He decides that Demetrius will marry Helena and
Lysander will marry Hermia. They return to Athens to prepare for their weddings. Bottom also awakens and believes he’s had a strange
dream. He hurries back to town to find his friends and get ready for the play, Pyramus and Thisbe.
________ In an attempt to reconcile Demetrius and Helena, Oberon orders that juice should be put on his eyes whilst he is sleeping and
she is near, but Robin mistakenly puts it on Lysander, who thus falls in love with Helena. She thinks she is being mocked. Love-juice is
then placed on Demetrius' eyes in order to rectify the mistake, but the result is that he too falls for Helena. The boys fight over her and the
girls quarrel.
________Egeus orders his daughter Hermia to marry Demetrius; she refuses because she and Lysander are in love. Her friend Helena is in
love with Demetrius, who once loved her but now does not. Under the law of Athens, Duke Theseus gives Hermia four days to obey her
father on pain of death or confinement to a nunnery. Hermia and Lysander escape this harsh law by running away to the woods.
Demetrius pursues them there, with Helena pursing him.
________In the woods, Oberon and Titania, King and Queen of fairies, have quarreled because Titania refuses to hand over an Indian
changeling boy to be Oberon's page. Oberon instructs the mischievous Puck, Robin Goodfellow, to press the juice of a magic flower on
Titania's eyes as she sleeps; it will make her fall in love with the first being she sees on waking.
________While Titania has been sleeping, a company of Athenian artisans under the leadership of Peter Quince has come to the wood to
rehearse a play for the ensuing wedding festivities of Duke Theseus and Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons. Robin puts an ass's head on
Bottom the weaver and because of the love-juice Titania falls in love with him.
