Heavens shield Lysander, if they mean a fray!
[Lies down and sleeps.]
Puck.On the ground448
Sleep sound:
I'll apply
To your eye,
Gentle lover, remedy.452
[Squeezing the juice on Lysander's eyes.]
When thou wak'st,
Thou tak'st
True delight
In the sight456
Of thy former lady's eye:
And the country proverb known,
That every man should take his own,
In your waking shall be shown:460
Jack shall have Jill;
Nought shall go ill;
The man shall have his mare again,
And all shall be well.[Exit Puck.]
They sleep all the Act.
