A Midsummer Night's Dream, a comedy play written by William Shakespeare, is .
a enjoyable play about four crazed lover's. This is a very imaginative story and many .
supernatural powers are included, which helps strengthen the play and grasp a better .
understanding of the plot and qualities of the characters. For example it helps the reader .
understand about Pucks mysteriousness, Cupid's flower, and the love triangle. These.
mystical powers make the play much more entertaining and humorous. If the .
magical powers were not included the events in the play would have no explanation. A .
Midsummer Night's Dream is entertaining because Shakespeare use's the supernatural .
powers in a comical yet witty manner. .
Puck, otherwise known as Robin Goodfellow, is a fairy that likes to play tricks .
on humans. He plays dishonorable and smutty pranks.
"Or else you are that shrewd and knavish sprite.
Call'd Robin Goodfellow: are you not .
That frights the maidens of the villagery;.
Skin milk, and sometimes labour in the quern,.
And bootless make the breathless housewife churn;.
And sometimes make the drink to bear no barm;.
Mislead night-wanderers, laughing at their harm?-.
(II, i, 33-39).
Puck and the things he does are so entertaining. So when Quince and the others were .
rehearsing for the play. Puck thinks it would be funny to make a real Ass out of Bottom, .
to this extent he puts a spell on him to have a real ass' head. When Titania, the Queen .
of the fairies, awakes she sees Bottom and falls in love with him. Shakespeare creates this .
confusion to make the play more amusing.
The little western flower is a magical flower, that was accidentally struck by .
Cupid's arrow.
"Flying between the cold moon and the earth,.
Cupid all arm'd: a certain aim he took.
