What is the significance or meanings of the names Titania's fairies in A Midsummer Nights Dream by Shakespeare?
The names are Peaseblossom, Cobweb, Mustardseed and Moth. What do they mean? or maybe clues to what the fairies do.|||I believe they are all names of items used in folk medicine. A cobweb, for instance, was commonly used as a bandage to speed blood clotting. Read the play: Bottom recalls the uses of each as they are introduced to him.|||I dont know use wikipedia! :D
