WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: A Midsummer Night's Dream
Use the following extract to answer the following question:
As wagish boys in a game themselves forswear;
So the boy Love is perjured everywhere;
For ere Demetrius looked on Hermia's eyne,
He hailed down oaths that he was only mine;
And when this hail some heat from Hermia felt,
So he dissolved and showers of oaths did melt
From the novel;
The speaker is
Demetrius
Egeus
Hermia
Helena
Validate
Solution:
This soliloquy occurs in Act 1, Scene 1. Helena is lamenting her unrequited love for Demetrius. She describes how Demetrius used to swear his love was "only mine" before he saw Hermia's "eyne" (eyes) and shifted his affections.
