Oberon Enchants Titania, Queen of the Fairies
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine:
There sleeps Titania sometime of the night,
Lull'd in these flowers with dances and delight;
And there the snake throws her enamell'd skin,
Weed wide enough to wrap a fairy in...

Oh, Io is *very* Titania like, so regal, severe and haunting! Midsummer night is my most favourite play!
