WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Read the extract below and answer the question:
The wildest hath not such a heart as you
Run when you will, the story shall be change;
Apollo flies, and Daphne holds the chase;
The dove pursues the griffin, the mild hind
Makes speed to catch the tiger, bootless speed,
When cowardice pursues, and valour flies.
