WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: A Midummer Night's Dream
Read the following extract and answer the question that follows:
Lysander riddles very prettily;
Now much beshrew my manners and my pride,
If Hermia meant to say Lysander lied.
But, gentle friend, for love and courtesy
Lie further off, in human modesty;
Such separation as may well be said
Becomes a virtuous bachelor and a maid;
So far be distant, and good night, sweet friend:
Thy love ne'er alter, till thy sweet life end!
From the novel;
The speaker is
Helena
Titania
Hermia
Hippolyta
Validate
Solution:
This dialogue takes place in the woods. Lysander has been using "riddles" (wordplay) to suggest they sleep close together, but Hermia, upholding her "virtue" and "modesty," insists they sleep apart.
