Response to Puck...

If we shadows have offended,
Think but this and all is mended.
That you have but slumbered here
While these visions did appear,
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding than a dream,
Gentles do not reprehend,
If you pardon will we mend.
And as I am an honest puck,
If we have unearned luck,
Now to scape the serpent's tongue,
We will make amends ere long,
Else the Puck a liar call,
So good night unto you all...
Puck, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Shakespeare.

These amends they do not please,
From a spritely band of thieves,
So to 'scape this evil tongue,
I suggest that you begone.©
