The love between Helena and Demetrius was also controlled, because Demetrius did not really love Helena, a spell was put on him so that he falls in love with Helena.

Oberon and Titania would have continued arguing over the Indian Boy.I got 56 on this but im in grade 12 people in grade 10 or less might get a higher mark
