Answer:

b. lunatics; poets

Step-by-step explanation:

By comparing love to wealth, Theseus signals from the beginning that he does not possess an ideal understanding of love.Theseus says that he does not believe the story, adding that darkness and love have a way of exciting the imagination. Hippolyta notes, however, that if their story is not true, then it is quite strange that all of the lovers managed to narrate the events in exactly the same way.Poets see things that don't exist because their imagination is strong.
