High School - 12th GradePosted by rowens on Friday May 4, 2007 at 10:06 AMThe lines are said by Titania, the Queen of the Faries. Oberon, the Fairy King and her estranged lover, has put the juice of a mystical love flower in her eyes. The elixer makes the people(or fairies, as in this case) with the substance in their eyes fall deeply in love with the first creature they see.
Oberon is playing a trick on Titania to get even for her shunning him. He makes her fall madly in love with Bottom, whom Puck has just transformed into a donkey.
