In Shakespeare’s book A Midsummer Nights Dream, Lysander says, “The course of true love never did run smooth.’ ‘ Lysander is saying this to his true love Herima. Whom her parents disapproved of their love for each other. While this is going on Demetruis is making Helena his bride, although he is in love with Herima. The story gets even better when the fairies are helping them to think they all have true love. Lysander and Hermia love each other very much, much knowing that Hermia’s parents would approve or would not let them get married because Hermia’s father wants his daughter to marry Demetruis she doesn’t then she will die. So, Lysander comes up with a great plan that they will run away with each other and go stay with his aunt.
Who thinks of him as a son. While they were discussing this they were in the forest where it is getting late so they decide to spend the night with each other. When they wake, up all will be different. Helena loves Demetruis even though, Demetruis’s true love is Hermia, but he will never be able to be with her because she’s in love with Lysander.
Even though Hermia’s father would like her to marry Demetruis, he decides that since Helena loves me, I’m going to love her. While Oberon and Puck the fairies, are walking through the forest talking about how to get the “Indian Boy” they come across Lysander who is sleeping in the woods. They put love juice in his eyes thinking it was someone else. The love juice makes you fall in love with the first person you see. When Lysander wakes up he sees Helena and right then and there he falls in love with her. When Oberon and Puck found out what they have done, they know there is going to be a big problem, because they were supposed to put the love juice into Demetruis eyes.
So, the fairies tired to make the mistake right by putting love juice into Demetruis’s eyes, so when Demetruis wakes up and see’s Helena he would fall in love with her. Now, Demetruis and Lysander are in love with the same girl which Helena thinks that this is happening out of meanness. So to fix the problem, Oberon and Puck put love juice back into Lysander so that Herima can wake him up and he will fall in love with her. So at the end of the story Lysander loves Herima. Demetruis loves Helena.
At the end of the story, no one knows what love juice can do to people’s true love for each other. So I guess what Lysander said was true,” The course of true love never did run smooth.’ ‘.
