A line from the play A Midsummer Night's Dream, by William Shakespeare. A mischievous fairy, Puck, addressing his king, is commenting on the folly of the human beings who have come into his forest.
What was Puck's famous quote?
I am that merry wanderer of the night. When I a fat and bean-fed horse beguile, Neighing in likeness of a filly foal.
