Hermia: I am shocked by your heated words. I don't mock you, but you mock me.
Helena: Did you make Lysander mock me, to follow me and compliment my eyes and face? And made your other love Demetrius, who didnt even reject me with his foot, to call me goddess, beautiful, angelic, rare, precious, and heavenly? Why does he talk like that to a girl he can't stand and why does Lysander deny that he loves you, when he loves you so deeply? Why would he show me any affection, unless you told him to? Why does it matter that i'm not as lucky or lovable. So hung up on love, so lucky, but mostly sad to love someone who doesn't love you. You should have sympathy rather than hate.
Hermia: I don't understand you.
Helena: You make a lot of fake sad looks, talk …show more content…
Why? Oh I see how it is. She is talking about our height difference. She is showing off how tall she is. She won him over with her height. Does he think highly of you because you are so tall and i'm so short? Is that it? So how short am I, you painted barber pole? Tell me! How short am I? I'm not to short to scratch your eyes out with my fingernails!
Helena: Don't let her hurt me, gentlemen, even if you mock me. I never was good with insults. You might think that because she is shorter than me, I can take her.
Hermia: Shorter! Again!
Helena: Good Hermia, don't be so bitter with me. I always loved you and gave you advice. I never tried to hurt you, except once, when I told Demetrius that you ran away into the forrest with Lysander and I only did it because I love Demetrius. He followed you and I followed him because I love him. But he told me to get lost and threatened to hit me, kick me, and to even kill me. Now just let me go quietly to Athens. Please let me go. You see how naive and foolish I've been.
Hermia: Well get out of here! Who's keeping you?
Helena: I leave behind my stupid heart.
Hermia: What, you're leaving it with Lysander?
Helena: No, with Demetrius.
Lysander: Don't be afraid. She won't hurt you, Helena.
Demetrius: No, she will not hurt you Helena even if you try to help
