William Shakespeare

David Garrick

A Midsummer Night's Dream, 1763

Rewatched the movie (1999) and can't stop thinking about this quote

mari

Do I entice you? Do I speak you fair?

Or rather do I not in plainest truth

Tell you I do not, nor I cannot love you?

And even for that do I love you the more. I am your spaniel, and, Demetrius,

The more you beat me I will fawn on you.

Use me but as your spaniel: spurn me, strike me,

Neglect me, lose me; only give me leave

(Unworthy as I am) to follow you. What worser place can I beg in your love

(And yet a place of high respect with me)

Than to be usèd as you use your dog?

william wukkuan

So sorrow’s heaviness doth heavier grow

For debt that bankrupt sleep doth sorrow owe,

Vaelynne

you run away into the forest with your forbidden lover but another prince and princess follow you and all four of you fight due to a spell from a fairy.. ♡
