Answer 2

In A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare, the character that is most associated with the moon in Act 2 is Hermia.

The correct answer is d.

Here, the moon is linked to sexual desire; Egeus tells the reader that Lysander has often serenaded Hermia "by moonlight" and Shakespeare reminds us over and over again that, when the lovers chase each other around in the woods, the action occurs "in the moonlight."
