Shakespeare's fairy (4)

I believe the answer is:

puck

(Other definitions for puck that I've seen before include "Mischievous spirit" , "Mischievous sprite or Gaelic goat" , "Ice hockey disc - Shakespeare character" , "One of 5 [FAIRIES]" , "In summer, one dreamt" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
