"O, then, I see Queen Mab hath been with you./She is the fairies' midwife; and she comes/In shape no bigger than an agate-stone/On the fore-finger of an alderman,/Drawn with a team of little atomies/Athwart men's noses as they lie asleep:"(I.iv.53-58). Speaker: Mercutio Summary: While Romeo, mercutio, Benvolio and friends are on their way to the Capulet party, Romeo is hesitant to go because of a bad dream he had.

Scholars wonder why Shakespeare would put a forty-two line speech of mercutio ranting on about this when it had nothing to do with the story. They say he may have written this speech before he wrote Romeo and Juliet and didn't know what to do with it so he put it in one of Mercutio's teasing talks to his friends.
