In “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” which was written by William Shakespeare, Lysander and Hermia loved each other, but Hermia’s father, Egeus disagreed about it and wanted Hermia to marry Demetrius who was also an admirable man.  I think Lysander is a brave, kind, persistent and admirable person. Lysander was not afraid to oppose the rich and powerful Egeus, father to Hermia. He defied Egeus when he said: “You have her father’s love, Demetrius. Let me have Hermia’s. Do you marry him.” (Line 93-94). Hermia’s father is really powerful and rich, no one dared to provoke him, everyone obeyed his wishes. But instead of following Egeus’s arrangement, Lysander opposed him, which shows that he is a brave person. Egeus said it’s true that he like Demetrius, Lysander heard that and said to Theseus. “And-which is more than all these boast can be lam beloved of beauteous Hermia. Why should not I then prosecute my right.” (line 103-105) When  He provoked Egeus because he wants to marry Hermia. He is very smart and handsome. Many people like him but he only likes Hermia. And he is a kind person, but he fought with Demetrius that’s also means how he love Hermia. Hermia was sad and upset because her dad forced her into marriage, Lysander said that to comforted Hermia. “Ayme! For aught that I could ever read. Could ever hear by tale or history. The course of true love never did run smooth. But either it was different in blood” (line 132-135) He knew how to comfort people even though he is also upset but he could control his mood and he tried his best to be kind to others. Theseus tried to prove that Demetrius was better than Lysander, but Hermia didn’t think in that way. She thought they didn’t know the positive points about Lysander and she also wanted to tell them Lysander was better so she said: “Demetrius is a worthy gentleman…So is Lysander”(Line 50-56) Hermia thought Lysander was an admirable man and that’s one of the reasons why Hermia loved Lysander. This is what other characters think about Lysander.
