Lysander
And, which is more than all these boasts can be,
I am beloved of beauteous Hermia.
Why should not I then prosecute my right?

If I don’t get to marry Hermia, I will prosecute Demetrius.

excerpt from Act II, Scene 2, in A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare

Helena
No, no, I am as ugly as a bear,
For beasts that meet me run away for fear.
Therefore no marvel though Demetrius
Do as a monster fly my presence thus.

The mood is humorous; Helena laughs at herself and her situation by comparing herself to outrageously ugly things.

The answer is The Mood is Sad; Helena is devastated that Demetrius had run away from her.

Explanation " No, no, I am as ugly as a bear...For beasts that meet me run away for fear..." She calls herself ugly and feels that she is not beautiful, so the readers feel sympathy and the beasts is Demetrius who had run away.
