First rehearse your song by rote
To each word a warbling note:
Hand in hand, with fairy grace,
Will we sing, and bless this place.
Song and dance
-Titania
A Midsummer Night’s Dream Act V, Scene i, Line 386
Unlike yesterday’s line, these are only a few lines removed from the end of the play. All the mortals have left the stage at this point, all their activities complete, and Oberon, Titania, Puck, and the fairies are here. And they’re just singing, dancing, (as you can note by the stage direction) and pretty much making merry before all but Puck depart, leaving him to wrap things up.
So that’s about all I’ve got for today’s line.
This guy might be able to do some warbling. Ya think?
