In Act IV, Scene 1, of A Midsummer Night's Dream, as the drama nears resolution, to whom does Demetrius address these lines? My love to Hermia,
Melted as the snow, seems to me now
As the remembrance of an idle gaud

B. Theseus

Explanation:

"Midsummer Night's Dream" is a play written by Shakespeare. This play is a comedy, where there is a lot of confusion with couples in love, humans and fairies.

In this play we are introduced to Hermia and Lysander, who are in love and want to get married, but cannot. Hermia's father promised her in marriage to Demetrius who loves her, but Helena loves Demetrius who is not interested in her.

The four young people are victims of a fairy prank that makes Helena fall in love with Lysander, while Demetrius and Lysaner fall in love with Helena. This creates a great deal of confusion, which needs to be resolved by Theseus, the Duke of Rome.

When Theseus goes to talk to the young people to understand what happened, Demetrius tells him:

"My love to Hermia,

Melted as the snow, seems to me now

As the remembrance of an idle gaud"

in "letter from a birmingham jail," king argues that there are four basic steps in any nonviolent campaign: "[c]ollection of the facts to determine whether injustices exist; negotiation; self purification; and direct action." finally, direct action is taken and acts such as boycotts and sit-ins are staged.
