~Re-arranging the Stuff~

SO... today was Shakespeare class, and we began with a little speech by Angela. And then, we went- (drum roll, please) straight to BLOCKING! The fairies managed an arrangement for our song to sing our beloved Queen Titania to sleep, warning all evil "things of the night" to leave her be.

"(Verse One) You spotted snakes with double tongue,
Thorny hedgehogs, be not seen;
Newts and blind-worms, do no wrong,
Come not near our fairy queen.

(Chorus) Philomel, with melody
Sing in our sweet lullaby;
Lulla, lulla, lullaby, lulla, lulla, lullaby:
Never harm,
Nor spell nor charm,
Come our lovely lady nigh;
So, good night, with lullaby.

(Verse Two) Weaving spiders, come not here;
Hence, you long-legg'd spinners, hence!
Beetles black, approach not near;
Worm nor snail, do no offence.

Philomel, with melody, etc."

Angela changed a little of last week's bit of blocking, and on we went. The first verse of the song is to "Just Around the Riverbend" from the Disney film, Pocahontas. (Whoops... did I really have to say that???) Oh, well:)
