Try 2-10:

2. Lysander to Hermia (Act I, scene i):

From Athens is her house remote seven leagues;

And she respects me as her only son.

There, gentle Hermia, may I marry thee;

And to that place the sharp Athenian law

Cannot pursue us.

3. Helena to Hermia (Act I, scene i):

O that your frowns would teach my smiles such skill!

4. Lysander to Hermia (Act I, scene i):

Helen, to you our minds we will unfold:

To-morrow night, when Phoebe doth behold

Her silver visage in the watery glass,

Decking with liquid pearl the bladed grass,-

5. Hermia to Helena (Act I, scene i):

And in the wood, where often you and I

Upon faint primrose-beds were wont to lie,

Emptying our bosoms of their counsel sweet,

6. Helena to Hermia and Lysander (Act I, scene i):

Love looks not with the eyes, but with themind;

And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind:

7. Fairy to Puck (Act II, scene ii):
