This is dream about Oberon and Titania's golden wedding. Oberon and Titania were separated for fifty years. After the years had passed they reunited and had a golden wedding. The Orchestra begins to play loudly and a soloist begins to sing. An inquiring traveler thought it was fake, because they thought Oberon had long been dead and buried. While a young witch showed up naked oh her trying to show off her strapping figure. The men started to crowd around the witch and the conductor had to tell them to back off. The orchestra starts playing soft, "The shrouding mists and thick-massed clouds lighten in the dawn, the wind stirs leaves, it rattles reeds, and all is scattered, gone." (4244-4247) | |||
