Ma è un gioco che non può essere giocato con successo senza la conoscenza della legge spirituale: “Ciò che un uomo semina è ciò che raccoglierà.” Questo significa che qualunque cosa un uomo emetta con le parole o con le azioni gli tornerà indietro; riceverà ciò che dà.

From love potions to bizarre transformations to the unforgettable play-within-a-play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a non-stop delight, and remains one of the milestones of the Bard’s canon.

This unabridged version has 25 tracks: 1. Preface. 2. Introduction.
