The workers in our world are people are construction workers and people who work behind desks. The fairies in our world are actors and musicians. They use props to make this look like magic and just do lots of different things.

SLIDE THREE: The play of A Midsummer Nights Dream wasn't so different from the book. The only thing different was the way people did things on the stage because they weren't in the book. A few lines were rearranged here and there but there wasn't anything specific that was different between the story and the play.

SLIDE FIVE: The line "The course of true love never did run smooth" from AMSND comparing to real life is focusing on realizing love isn't easy to find. Loving someone who doesn't love you back is very difficult to handle, but it is a part of being a human being. You have to go through difficult events throughout your life. For example, people might not feel the way you feel about them. People may not see what you see in them. Everybody has their own interests in a woman or man. They might think they are not important to them or apart of their life. Love isn't easy to handle when it's ending, True love is very difficult to discover.

SLIDE SIX: A famous quote from AMSND is"Love looks not with the eyes but with the mind". This quote is famous because it is very deep. It means you can't find love by just looking at someone, it's way more complicated then that. In order to find love you have to get to know a person and your mind makes the decision, your mind determines whether you love someone or not. In the real world people don't just look at a person and say "I love you" you have to get to know the person and your mind makes the decision if you like or love another person or not.

SLIDE NINE: William Shakespeare's Sonnet 73 is about the characteristics on nature and the metaphors of it. In the sonnet it says "time of year" which is showing that is it late autumn. When the leaves have almost completely fallen from the trees, and the weather has grown cold. Also the birds have left their branches behind. He compares himself to the glowing remnants of fire. "On the ashes of his youth" is explaining that the ashes on the logs, once enabled it to burn. Something referring to the last example is "By that which it was consumed by". William Shakespeare is saying u must perceive these things and that their love must be strengthened.
