Which once untangled, much misfortune bodes: That plats the manes of horses in the night,Īnd bakes the elflocks in foul sluttish hairs, Of healths five-fathom deep and then anonĭrums in his ear, at which he starts and wakes,Īnd being thus frighted swears a prayer or two Of breaches, ambuscadoes, Spanish blades, Sometime she driveth o’er a soldier’s neck,Īnd then dreams he of cutting foreign throats, Tickling a parson’s nose as a’ lies asleep, Sometime she gallops o’er a courtier’s nose,Īnd then dreams he of smelling out a suit Īnd sometime comes she with a tithe-pig’s tail Which oft the angry Mab with blisters plagues,īecause their breaths with sweetmeats tainted are:

O’er ladies ‘ lips, who straight on kisses dream, O’er lawyers’ fingers, who straight dream on fees, O’er courtiers’ knees, that dream on court’sies straight, Through lovers’ brains, and then they dream of love Time out o’ mind the fairies’ coachmakers.Īnd in this state she gallops night by night Her whip of cricket’s bone, the lash of film, The collars of the moonshine’s watery beams, Her wagon-spokes made of long spiders’ legs, She is the fairies’ midwife, and she comes O, then, I see Queen Mab hath been with you. In bed asleep, while they do dream things true. Take our good meaning, for our judgment sitsįive times in that ere once in our five wits. We waste our lights in vain, like lamps by day. Of this sir-reverence love, wherein thou stick’st If thou art dun, we’ll draw thee from the mire Tut, dun’s the mouse, the constable’s own word: The game was ne’er so fair, and I am done. Tickle the senseless rushes with their heels,įor I am proverb’d with a grandsire phrase Here are the beetle brows shall blush for me.Ī torch for me: let wantons light of heart Prick love for pricking, and you beat love down.

If love be rough with you, be rough with love Too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn. To soar with his light feathers, and so bound,Īnd, to sink in it, should you burden love So stakes me to the ground I cannot move. Not I, believe me: you have dancing shoes Nay, gentle Romeo, we must have you dance. Give me a torch: I am not for this ambling We’ll measure them a measure, and be gone. Nor no without-book prologue, faintly spokeīut let them measure us by what they will We’ll have no Cupid hoodwink’d with a scarf, What, shall this speech be spoke for our excuse?
