Oberon instructs Puck, his helper, to find a magic love potion and to give it to Lysander so as to make him fall in love with Hermia. However, Puck makes a mistake and because of it, both Lysander and Demetrius fall in love with Helena, which is not something Oberon wanted to happen.

Oberon sees how much Helena loves Demetrius so he instructs Puck, his fairy henchman, to find a specific flower to make a love potion and give it to the "Disdainful Athenian youth" Demetrius so he will fall in love with Helena when he wakes. Instead, Puck accidentally touches Lysanders eyes with the love potion, then later touched to Demetrius' eyes which then ends the story with two men being madly in love with Helena which is something Oberon did want.

Read the two passages from Sugar Changed the World. Slave owners fought back, arguing that owners should be able to list their s
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Both passages use evidence to show that knowledge of the extreme brutality of the sugar trade changed viewpoints about enslavement.

Explanation:

The author's main idea is the fact that sugar, even though it had caused all the atrocities it had caused, changed people's impressions of slavery.

All this was due to the fact that with the Age of Sugar, slavery became brutal as ever. And people were noticing it. Lemerre Younger was the first one to protest, declaring <em>equal rights for all</em>. And it -

<em>began to spread — toppling kings, overturning governments, transforming the entire world</em>.

In the second passage, the authors show how Clarkson and the abolitionists fought their fights. It was all about making things <em>public</em><em>, </em>educating the blind. By helping people understand and see the reality of the slave trade, they started a revolution in people's opinion. One was no longer indifferent after <em>Clarkson's speeches and the testimonials he published</em>. The people rose against the torture.
