And that he does I weep: myself am Naples,
|
Who with mine eyes, never since at ebb, beheld
|
The king my father wreck'd.
|
MIRANDA:
|
Alack, for mercy!
|
FERDINAND:
|
Yes, faith, and all his lords; the Duke of Milan
|
And his brave son being twain.
|
PROSPERO:
|
MIRANDA:
|
Why speaks my father so ungently? This
|
Is the third man that e'er I saw, the first
|
That e'er I sigh'd for: pity move my father
|
To be inclined my way!
|
FERDINAND:
|
O, if a virgin,
|
And your affection not gone forth, I'll make you
|
The queen of Naples.
|
PROSPERO:
|
Soft, sir! one word more.
|
They are both in either's powers; but this swift business
|
I must uneasy make, lest too light winning
|
Make the prize light.
|
One word more; I charge thee
|
That thou attend me: thou dost here usurp
|
The name thou owest not; and hast put thyself
|
Upon this island as a spy, to win it
|
From me, the lord on't.
|
FERDINAND:
|
No, as I am a man.
|
MIRANDA:
|
There's nothing ill can dwell in such a temple:
|
If the ill spirit have so fair a house,
|
Good things will strive to dwell with't.
|
PROSPERO:
|
Follow me.
|
Speak not you for him; he's a traitor. Come;
|
I'll manacle thy neck and feet together:
|
Sea-water shalt thou drink; thy food shall be
|
The fresh-brook muscles, wither'd roots and husks
|
Wherein the acorn cradled. Follow.
|
FERDINAND:
|
No;
|
I will resist such entertainment till
|
Mine enemy has more power.
|
MIRANDA:
|
O dear father,
|
Make not too rash a trial of him, for
|
He's gentle and not fearful.
|
PROSPERO:
|
What? I say,
|
My foot my tutor? Put thy sword up, traitor;
|
Who makest a show but darest not strike, thy conscience
|
Is so possess'd with guilt: come from thy ward,
|
For I can here disarm thee with this stick
|
And make thy weapon drop.
|
MIRANDA:
|
Beseech you, father.
|
PROSPERO:
|
Hence! hang not on my garments.
|
MIRANDA:
|
Sir, have pity;
|
I'll be his surety.
|
PROSPERO:
|
Silence! one word more
|
Shall make me chide thee, if not hate thee. What!
|
An advocate for an imposter! hush!
|
Thou think'st there is no more such shapes as he,
|
Having seen but him and Caliban: foolish wench!
|
To the most of men this is a Caliban
|
And they to him are angels.
|
MIRANDA:
|
My affections
|
Are then most humble; I have no ambition
|
To see a goodlier man.
|
PROSPERO:
|
Come on; obey:
|
Thy nerves are in their infancy again
|
And have no vigour in them.
|
FERDINAND:
|
So they are;
