PUCK . Fear not , my lord , your servant shall do so . [ Exeunt . ] SCENE II . Another part of the wood Enter Titania with her Train . TITANIA . Come , now a roundel and a fairy song ; Then for the third part of a minute , hence ; Some to kill cankers in the musk - rose buds ; Some war with reremice for their leathern wings , To make my small elves coats ; and some keep back The clamorous owl , that nightly hoots and wonders At our quaint spirits . Sing me now asleep ; Then to your offices , and let me rest . Fairies sing . FIRST FAIRY . You spotted snakes with double tongue , Thorny hedgehogs , be not seen ; Newts and blind - worms do no wrong , Come not near our Fairy Queen : CHORUS . Philomel , with melody , Sing in our sweet lullaby : Lulla , lulla , lullaby ; lulla , lulla , lullaby . Never harm , nor spell , nor charm , Come our lovely lady nigh ; So good night , with lullaby . FIRST FAIRY . Weaving spiders , come not here ; Hence , you long - legg’d spinners , hence . Beetles black , approach not near ; Worm nor snail do no offence . CHORUS . Philomel with melody , & c . SECOND FAIRY . Hence away ! Now all is well . One aloof stand sentinel . [ Exeunt Fairies . Titania sleeps . ] Enter Oberon . OBERON . What thou seest when thou dost wake , [ Squeezes the flower on Titania’s eyelids . ] Do it for thy true love take ; Love and languish for his sake . Be it ounce , or cat , or bear , Pard , or boar with bristled hair , In thy eye that shall appear When thou wak’st , it is thy dear . Wake when some vile thing is near . [ Exit . ] Enter Lysander and Hermia . LYSANDER . Fair love , you faint with wand’ring in the wood . And , to speak troth , I have forgot our way . We’ll rest us , Hermia , if you think it good , And tarry for the comfort of the day . HERMIA . Be it so , Lysander : find you out a bed , For I upon this bank will rest my head . LYSANDER . One turf shall serve as pillow for us both ; One heart , one bed , two bosoms , and one troth . HERMIA . Nay , good Lysander ; for my sake , my dear , Lie further off yet , do not lie so near . LYSANDER . O take the sense , sweet , of my innocence ! Love takes the meaning in love’s conference . I mean that my heart unto yours is knit , So that but one heart we can make of it : Two bosoms interchainèd with an oath , So then two bosoms and a single troth . Then by your side no bed - room me deny ; For lying so , Hermia , I do not lie . HERMIA . 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 !
