A Midsummer Night's Dream By William Shakespeare
People have different opinions about the definition of love, and whether a couple is truly in love or not. For instance, the play A Midsummer Night’s Dream, by William Shakespeare, portrays the life of four young Athenian lovers who struggle to find their soulmates. As Oberon, the king of fairies, tries to help the four lovers by using a love potion to match the right couples, more chaos is caused between them. In addition, Oberon also tries to steal his wife’s, Titania, adopted kid because he wants to make him one of his knights. This couple encounters many arguments throughout the play, but, as the story unfolds, the two fairies are shown to be truly in love, as they have a longstanding and a sustainable, strong love.

Oberon, on the other hand, still wants the Indian Boy, resulting in arguments and fights between the two fairies. When Puck, a mischievous fairy who is Oberon’s helper, is explaining to another fairy the situation between Oberon and Titania, he states that after their argument over the little indian boy, “they never meet in grove or green,/… But they do square, that all their elves for fear/Creep into acorn cups and hide them there” (II.i.14-17).
