And, gentle Puck, take this transformèd scalp
From off the head of this Athenian swain,
That he awaking when the other do
May all to Athens back again repair
And think no more of this night’s accidents
But as the fierce vexation of a dream.
But first I will release the Fairy Queen.
– William Shakespeare
A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Act 4, Scene 1. Oberon instructs Puck to remove Bottom’s ass head, so that he is transformed back to his normal self and Puck’s mischief is undone. Also says that he will release Titania from her spell. The Fairy King suggests that the Athenians will return to the city and forget the crazy happenings of the night, thinking all was just a dream and not real.
