Although Egeus has promised her in marriage to Demetrius, who loves her, Lysander has won Hermia’s heart, and Hermia refuses to obey her father and marry Demetrius.
Full of vexation come I, with complaint Against my child, my daughter Hermia. Stand forth, Demetrius. My noble lord, This man hath my consent to marry her.
What say you, Hermia? Be advis'd fair maid: To you your father should be as a god; One that composed your beauties, yea, and one To whom you are but as a form in wax.
Egeus demands that the law punish Hermia if she fails to comply with his demands.
I beg the ancient privilege of Athens, As she is mine, I may dispose of her: Which shall be either to this gentleman Or to her death, according to our law Immediately provided in that case.
By him imprinted and within his power To leave the figure or disfigure it. Demetrius is a worthy gentleman.
Theseus speaks to Hermia sharply, telling her to expect to be sent to a nunnery or put to death.
So is Lysander.
In himself he is; But in this kind, wanting your father's voice, The other must be held the worthier.
