A Midsummer Night’s Dream: Discuss how this play might reflect on Elizabeth’ s decision not to marry

... to her as quoted earlier. Moreover, though people in love are portrayed to be fools, [as wisely mentioned by Puck] this would not have had relevance to her decision not to marry. We would only be attributing motives that Shakespeare himself would get confused about if he reads the voluminous criticism that is perennially evolving round him.
