Theseus (JTH) delivers the opening lines of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”:
“Now, fair Hippolyta, our nuptial hour
Draws on apace. Four happy days bring in
Another moon, but O, methinks, how slow
This old moon wanes! She lingers my desires,
Like to a step-dame or a dowager,
Long withering out a young man’s revenue.”

Hippolyta (Bonnie Showers) replies:
“Four days will quickly steep themselves in night;
Four nights will quickly dream away the time;
And then the moon, like to a silver bow
New bent in heaven, shall behold the night
Of our solemnities.”
