WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Read the extract below and answer the question:
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!
The speech is made in
- Oberon's place
-
the woods
- the Queen's palace
- Theseus' palace
The correct answer is: B
Explanation
