Egeus, Hermias Father, goes to Duke Theseus for assistance with his predicament. Theseus departs Hermia the option to either marry Demetrius, the man his father has deemed worthy of her, or for her to live a barren life as a nun.As Hermia heard what was to come, she replies to Theseus as she defends her know, So I will grow, so live, so die, my lord, Ere I will yield my virgin patent up unto his lordship whose unwished-for yoke my soul consents not to give sovereignity.

Lysander suggests to his love,Therefore hear me, Hermia I have a widow aunt a dowager of great revenue and she hath no child. From Athens is her house irrelevant seven leagues and she respects me as her only son.There gentle Hermia, may I marry thee Hermia replies to him, In that same pasture thou hast appointed me tomorrow truly will I meet with thee.

My love is more than his my fortune every way as fairly ranked- if not with vantage- as Demetrius. Through all adversities, He never left Hermia unprotected nor did he give up. Lysander comforts Hermia with his company and words of advice. Lysander was with Hermia in times of need as in the Dukes resolution.Lysander conquered all obstacles that came in between the love that he had for Hermia and turn up he was truly worthy of Hermias love with his actions. The theme of forbidden love is reflected by the characters of Hermia and Lysander who live life as a daily strife in struggle to maintain their love alive. Even though supernatural powers and mountain-high problems may come in the way of true love, in the end love will always be victorious. Hermia and Lysander are an example of a couple who faced challenges on the way but the prize-being together as a couple, was distant more rewarding in the end.
