Concept:The speaker is the character who wakes from an enchanted, absurd experience and mistakes it for a strange dream.
Explanation:In this extract from
A Midsummer Night's Dream, the speaker describes an incredible dream that “man is but an ass” to try to explain.
This matches Bottom’s experience in the enchanted wood.
He had been given an ass’s head by Puck and was loved by Titania, the fairy queen.
When he wakes, his normal head is restored, and he believes the whole event was only a bizarre dream.
His confused, comic speech about the "eye of man" not hearing and the "ear of man" not seeing shows how amazed he is.
No other character in the play makes this exact speech.
Therefore, the speaker is Bottom.
Answer:A. Bottom
