Well Sport away the remnant of the Night And all the World shall envy my Delight Exeunt ACT. IV. Enter Oberon and Robin-Good-Fellow Ob. I Squese this Flower of Purple die Hit with Cupid's Archery On the Apple of his Eye When the mournful Helen's nigh She shall shine as gloriously As yonder Venus in the Sky Thou shalt wake when she is by And beg her pardon for thy Cruelty Rob. Lord of all the Fairy Land All is done at thy Command Helena is here at hand And the Youth mistook by me Pleading for a Lover's Fee Shall we their fond Pageants see Lord what Fools these Mortals be Ob. Be careful or the noise they make Will cause Demetrius to awake Rob. Then will two one Damsel court That must needs be pleasant sport I am always pleas'd to see Things fall out prepostrously Enter Lysander and Helena Ly. Why should think you that I would woo in scorn Scorn and Derision never come in Tears How can these watry Eyes seem Scorn to you Wearing Love's Livery to prove 'em true Hel. You but advance your cunning more and more When truth kills truth 't is the Devil's holy War These Vows are Hermia's they belong to her Ly. I had no Judgment when to her I swore Hel.
