| ACT III.
1. SCENE I. The Wood. The Queen of Fairies lying asleep.
 (continued)BOTTOM
I cry your worships mercy, heartily.--I beseech your
 worship's name.
 
 COBWEB
Cobweb.
 
 BOTTOM
I shall desire you of more acquaintance, good Master Cobweb. If I
 cut my finger, I shall make bold with you.--Your name, honest
 gentleman?
 
 PEASBLOSSOM
Peasblossom.
 
 BOTTOM
I pray you, commend me to Mistress Squash, your mother, and
 to Master Peascod, your father. Good Master Peasblossom, I
 shall desire you of more acquaintance too.--Your name, I beseech
 you, sir?
 
 MUSTARDSEED
Mustardseed.
 
 BOTTOM
Good Master Mustardseed, I know your patience well:
 That same cowardly giant-like ox-beef hath devoured many a
 gentleman of your house: I promise you your kindred hath made my
 eyes water ere now. I desire you of more acquaintance, good
 Master Mustardseed.
 
 TITANIA
Come, wait upon him; lead him to my bower.
 The moon, methinks, looks with a watery eye;
 And when she weeps, weeps every little flower;
 Lamenting some enforced chastity.
 Tie up my love's tongue, bring him silently.
 
 [Exeunt.]
