William Shakespeare writes and demonstrates the effect of love through the character’s eyes in his play A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Shakespeare establishes the illusion of love through the relationships between Lysander & Hermia‚ Demetrius & Helena‚ and Bottom & Titania.

In other words‚ Titania mistakes Bottom for a creature who is worthy of her love and affection. The same can be said of the other lovers who are dosed with Oberon’s magic love potion.
