Read the passage.

excerpt from Act II, Scene 1, in A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare

Helena Your virtue is my privilege.
For that It is not night when I do see your face,
Therefore I think I am not in the night.
Nor doth this wood lack worlds of company,
For you, in my respect, are all the world.

Which mood is created in this excerpt?

The line "For you, in my respect, are all the world" creates a submissive mood.


The line "Your virtue is my privilege" creates a plaintive or whining mood.


The line "It is not night when I do see your face" creates a mood of romantic love.


The line "Therefore I think I am not in the night" creates an argumentative mood.

Answer: C) The line "It is not night when I do see your face" creates a mood of romantic love.

Step-by-step explanation: In the given passage from Act II, Scene 1 of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare we can see Helens talking to Demetrius, and telling him that he is the world to her and that when she sees his face, for her it isn't night time anymore. So as we can see, the line "It is not night when I do see your face" creates a romantic mood between Helena and Demetrius, so the correct answer is option C.
