00:00:45♪♪
00:00:53Floundering off the coast of a mysterious and uninhabited island,
00:00:57a ship, as if by magic, was suddenly buffeted by cyclone winds and crashing waves.
00:01:03Aboard the ship was the king of Naples, Alonzo, and his son, Ferdinand,
00:01:09and two simple-minded servants, Trinculo and Stefano.
00:01:13Antonio, a villainous nobleman, demands the captain steer them to safety,
00:01:17as does Sebastian, the king's brother.
00:01:20Gonzalo, the trusted minister of state, pleads with fate to save them from a watery grave.
00:01:26Now would I give a thousand parlons of sea for an acre of barren ground.
00:01:33The will's above me done, but I would fain die a dry death.
00:01:37♪♪
00:01:45Come away, servant! Come, I'm ready now! Approach, my Ariel! Come!
00:01:53♪♪
00:01:58All hail, great master! Grave sir, hail!
00:02:02I come to answer thy best pleasure, dear, to fly, to swim, to dive into the fire,
00:02:07to ride on the curl cloud, to thy strong bidding.
00:02:11Task, Ariel, and all his quality.
00:02:14Hast thou, spirit, performed it to the point, the tempest, that I bade thee?
00:02:18To every article. I boarded the king's ship, now on the beak, now in the waist,
00:02:24the deck, in every cabin I flamed amazement.
00:02:27Sometime I'd divide and burn in many places.
00:02:30On the topmost, the yards and bowsprit, would I flame distinctly, then meet and join.
00:02:36Ay, brave spirit, who was so firm, so constant, that this coil would not infect his reason?
00:02:41Not a soul, but felt the fever of the mad, and played some tricks of desperation.
00:02:46All but mariners plunged in the foaming brine, and quit the vessel.
00:02:51Then, all afire with me, the king's son, Ferdinand, his hair upstairing,
00:02:56then like reeds, not hair, was the first man that leaped, cried,
00:03:00Hell is empty, and all the devils are here!
00:03:05Why, that's my spirit! But was not this nigh shore?
00:03:10Close by, my master.
00:03:12But are the aerials safe?
00:03:15Not a hair perished. On their sustaining garments, not a blemish, but fresher than before.
00:03:21And as thou bad'st me, I have in troops dispersed them, bout this isle.
00:03:26The king's son have I landed by himself, whom I left, cooling the air with sighs,
00:03:32in an odd angle of the isle, sitting his arms in this sad knot.
00:03:37Of the king's ship, the mariners, say how thou hast disposed, and all the rest of the fleet.
00:03:43Safely in harbour is the king's ship.
00:03:45In the deep nook, where once thou call'st me up at midnight to fetch dew from the still vex per moon,
00:03:50there she's hid. The mariners, all under hatches stowed,
00:03:54who, with a charm joined to their suffered labours, I have left to sleep.
00:03:58And for the rest of the fleet, which I dispersed, they have all met again,
00:04:02and are upon the Mediterranean float, bound sadly home for Naples,
00:04:06supposing they saw the king's ship wrecked, and his great person perish.
00:04:11Aerial thy charge exactly is performed.
00:04:14But there's more work. The time twixt six and now must by us both be spent most preciously.
00:04:21Is there more toil?
00:04:25Since thou dost give me pains, let me remember thee what thou hast promised, which is not yet performed me.
00:04:30O now, Moody, what isst thou canst demand?
00:04:33My liberty.
00:04:34Before the time be out, no more.
00:04:37O Prithee, remember I have done thee worthy service, told thee no lies,
00:04:42made thee no mistaking, served without all grudge or grumblings.
00:04:46Thou didst promise to bait me a full year.
00:04:48Dost thou forget from what a torment I did free thee?
00:04:51No.
00:04:52Thou dost, and think'st it much to tread the ooze of the salt deep,
00:04:57to ride upon the sharp wind of the north,
00:05:00to do me business in the veins of the earth when it is baked with frost.
00:05:04I do not, sir.
00:05:05Thou liest, malignant thing.
00:05:08Hast thou forgot the foul witch, Sycorax?
00:05:10No, sir.
00:05:11Thou hast.
00:05:13This blear-eyed hag was hither brought with child, and here was left by the sailors.
00:05:18Thou, my slave, as thou report'st thyself, was then her servant.
00:05:24And for thou wast a spirit too delicate to act her earthy and abhorred commands,
00:05:28she did confine thee in a most unmitigable rage into a cloven pine,
00:05:34within which rift imprisoned out its painfully remained a dozen years.
00:05:41Within which space she died and left thee there.
00:05:44Then was this island, save for the son that she did let her year,
00:05:48a freckled whelp hag born, not honoured with a human shape.
00:05:51Yes, Caliban, her son.
00:05:53Dull thing I say so.
00:05:55He that Caliban, whom now I keep in service.
00:05:58Thou best know'st from what a torment I did free thee.
00:06:01Thy groans did make wolves howl.
00:06:04It was a torment to lay upon the damned, which Sycorax could not again undo.
00:06:09It was mine heart, when I arrived and heard thee,
00:06:12that made gape the pine and let thee out.
00:06:14I thank thee, master.
00:06:16If thou more murmur'st, I'll ring an oak and peg thee in his nutty entrails
00:06:21till thou hast held awake twelve winters.
00:06:24Pardon, master. I will be correspondent to command and do my spiriting gently.
00:06:30Do so, and after two days I'll discharge thee.
00:06:35That's my noble master.
00:06:38What shall I do? Say what? What shall I do?
00:06:41Go, make thyself like a nymph of the sea.
00:06:43Be subject to no sight but thine and mine.
00:06:46Invisible to every eyeball else.
00:06:49Hark, in thy ear.
00:06:53My lord, it shall be done.
00:06:55My dearest father, if by your art you would put the wild waters in this roar,
00:06:59allay them, the sky, it seems, would pour down stinking pitch,
00:07:04but that the sea, mounting to the welkin's cheek, dashes the fire out.
00:07:08Oh, I have suffered with those that I saw suffer.
00:07:12A brave vessel, who had no doubt some noble creature in her, dashed all to pieces.
00:07:17Poor souls, they perished.
00:07:20Had I been any god of power, I would have sunk the sea within the earth,
00:07:23or ere it should the good ships so have swallowed, and the frotting souls within her.
00:07:27Be collected no more amazement.
00:07:29Tell your piteous heart there's no harm done.
00:07:32Oh, woe the dead.
00:07:33No harm.
00:07:34I have done nothing but in care of thee.
00:07:37Of thee, my dear one.
00:07:39Of thee, my daughter.
00:07:41Who art ignorant of what thou art,
00:07:43not knowing of whence I am,
00:07:45nor that I am more better than prospero master of this full poor cell,
00:07:50and thy no greater father.
00:07:53More to know did never meddle with my thoughts.
00:07:55Tis time I should inform thee further.
00:07:57Lend thy hand, and pluck my magic garment from me.
00:08:02So, lie there, my art.
00:08:15Why, thou thine eyes have comfort.
00:08:18The direful spectacle of the wreck that touched the very virtue of compassion.
00:08:23Have I with such provision of my art so safely ordered,
00:08:26that there is no soil,
00:08:28no, not so much perdition as in here,
00:08:30betid to any creature in the vessel which thou heardst cry,
00:08:33which thou saw'st think.
00:08:36Sit down, for thou must now know further.
00:08:38You have often begun to tell me what I am,
00:08:40but stopped, concluding stay.
00:08:42Not yet.
00:08:43The hours now come the very minute bids thee out thy heir.
00:08:46Obey and be attentive.
00:08:49Canst thou remember a time before we came unto this cell?
00:08:53I do not think thou canst, for then thou wast not out three years old.
00:08:57Tis far off, and rather like a dream,
00:08:59than an assurance that my remembrance warrants.
00:09:02Had I not four or five women once that tended me?
00:09:05Thou hadst, and more, Miranda.
00:09:07But how is it this lives in thy mind?
00:09:10What see'st thou else in the dark, backward, and abysm of time?
00:09:14If thou remember'st aught ere thou cam'st here,
00:09:16how thou cam'st here, thou Mason.
00:09:19But that I do not.
00:09:21Twelve years since, Miranda, twelve years since,
00:09:25thy father was the Duke of Milan, and a prince of power.
00:09:29But, sir, are not you my father?
00:09:32Well, thy mother was a piece of virtue, and she said thou wast my daughter.
00:09:36And thy father was Duke of Milan,
00:09:39and his only heir, a princess.
00:09:42No worse issue.
00:09:45But what foul play had we that we came from thence?
00:09:48Or blessed was't we did?
00:09:50Both, both, my girl, by foul play'st thou say'st.
00:09:52We were heavy thence, but blessedly all pure thence.
00:09:55Please you, further.
00:09:57My brother and thy uncle, called Antonio.
00:10:00I pray thee, mark me.
00:10:07For a brother should be so perfidious.
00:10:10He whom next thyself in all the world I love.
00:10:14To him I put the manage of my state, and to such things grew stranger.
00:10:19Being rapt in secret studies,
00:10:22my false brother, being thus lauded,
00:10:25did believe he was indeed the Duke.
00:10:28Me, poor man, my library was dukedom large enough.
00:10:32Of temporal royalties he thinks me now incapable.
00:10:35Confederates with King of Naples to give him annual tribute,
00:10:38do him homage, and bend the dukedom yet unbowed
00:10:42to most ignoble stooping.
00:10:44Dost thou hear?
00:10:46Your tale, sir, would cure deafness.
00:10:48This King of Naples,
00:10:53being to me an enemy inveterate,
00:10:56hearkens my brother's suit, which was
00:10:59that presently he should extirpate me and mine out of the dukedom.
00:11:03Whereon one midnight did Antonio open the gates of Milan,
00:11:06and in the dead of darkness a treacherous army levied for the purpose,
00:11:10hurried thence me and thy crying self.
00:11:14Wherefore did they not that hour destroy us?
00:11:17Well demanded, wench, my tale provokes that question.
00:11:21Dare they thus not so dear the love my people bore me?
00:11:25They hurried us aboard a barque,
00:11:28bore us some leagues to sea,
00:11:30where they prepared a rotten carcass of a boat,
00:11:33not rigged, nor tackled, sailed, nor masked,
00:11:36why, the very rats instinctively have quit it.
00:11:39There they hoist us to cry to the sea that roared to us,
00:11:44to sigh to the winds whose pity, sighing back again, did us but loving wrong.
00:11:49Alack, what trouble was I then to you?
00:11:52Oh, oh, a cheerio, Megan, thou wast.
00:11:55The tits preserved me, thou didst smile,
00:11:57infused with a fortitude from heaven,
00:12:00which raised in me an undergoing stomach to bear up against what should ensue.
00:12:04How came we ashore?
00:12:06By providence divine.
00:12:08Some food we had, and some fresh water,
00:12:11that a noble Neapolitan, Gonzalo, out of his charity did give us,
00:12:16with the rich garments, linens, stuffs, and necessaries,
00:12:20which since have steadied much.
00:12:22Would I might but ever see that, man.
00:12:25Hmm? So.
00:12:32Of his gentleness, knowing I loved my books,
00:12:36he furnished me from mine own library
00:12:39with volumes that I prize above my duty.
00:12:43Here in this island we arrived,
00:12:46and here have I, thy schoolmaster, made thee more profit than other princesses can,
00:12:51that have more time for vainer hours and tutors not so careful.
00:12:56Heaven thank you for it.
00:12:58And now I pray you, for still it is beating in my mind,
00:13:01your reason for raising this sea-storm.
00:13:03No, that's far forth.
00:13:06By accident most strange, bountiful fortune,
00:13:09now my dear lady, hath mine enemies brought to this shore.
00:13:13And by my prescience I find my zenith doth depend upon a most auspicious star,
00:13:19whose influence, if now I court not but omit,
00:13:22my fortunes will ever after droop.
00:13:25Here cease more questions.
00:13:27We'll visit Caridin, my slave, who never yields us kind answer.
00:13:31Tis a villain, sir, I do not love to look on.
00:13:34But as tis, we cannot miss him.
00:13:36He does make our fire, bring in our wood,
00:13:38and serves in offices that profit us.
00:13:51What ho!
00:13:52Say, Caridin!
00:13:56Thou urt'st thou speak.
00:13:58There's wood enough within.
00:14:02Come forth, I say. There's other business for thee.
00:14:08Come, thou tortoise.
00:14:10Where?
00:14:11Thou poisonous slave, got by the devil himself upon thy wicked dam.
00:14:15Come forth.
00:14:16As wicked do as e'er my mother brushed with raven's feather from unwholesome fen,
00:14:21and drop on you both.
00:14:23As southwest blow on you, and blister you all o'er.
00:14:27For this, to-night, be sure thou shall have cramps,
00:14:30side-stitches that shall pen thy breath up,
00:14:33urchins shall for that vast of night that they may work all night long.
00:14:37For this, to-night, be sure thou shall have cramps,
00:14:40side-stitches that shall pen thy breath up,
00:14:43urchins shall for that vast of night that they may work all exercise on thee.
00:14:47Thou shall be pinched as thick as honeycombs,
00:14:50each pinch more stinging than bees that made them.
00:14:53I must eat my dinner.
00:14:56This island's mine.
00:14:58My cigarettes, my mother, which thou takest from me.
00:15:02When thou camest first, thou strokest me,
00:15:06and made much of me,
00:15:08would give me water with berries in't,
00:15:10and teach me how to name the bigger light,
00:15:12and how the less that burn by day and night.
00:15:15And then I loved thee,
00:15:17and showed thee all the qualities of the isle,
00:15:20the fresh springs, brine pits, barren place and fertile.
00:15:23Cursed be that I did so.
00:15:26All the charms of cigarettes, toads, bats, beetles, light on you.
00:15:31For I am all the subject that you have,
00:15:33which first was mine own king.
00:15:36Here you stury me in this hard rock,
00:15:39whilst you do keep from me the rest of the island.
00:15:41Thou most lying slave, whom stripes may move not kindness,
00:15:45I have used thee filth as thou art with human care,
00:15:48lodged thee in mine own cell,
00:15:50till thou didst seek to violate the honour of my child.
00:15:55It would have been done.
00:15:57Thou didst prevent me.
00:15:59I would have peopled else this isle with Caliban.
00:16:02Horrid slave, which any print of goodness will not take,
00:16:05being capable of all ill.
00:16:07I pitied thee, took pains to make thee speak,
00:16:10taught thee each hour one thing or other.
00:16:12When thou didst not, savage, know thine own meaning,
00:16:14but would gabble like a thing most brutish,
00:16:16I endowed thy purposes with words that made them known.
00:16:19You taught me language, and my profit on this.
00:16:22I know how to curse.
00:16:25The red plague rid you for learning me your language.
00:16:28Hence, heed, hence.
00:16:30Fetch us in more fuel, and be quick thou at best.
00:16:33Shrugs, thou maddest.
00:16:35If thou neglect'st or dost unwillingly what I command,
00:16:37I'll rack thee with old cramps,
00:16:39fill all thy bones with aches,
00:16:42make thee roar that beasts shall tremble at thy din.
00:16:45Oh, pray thee.
00:16:47So, slave, hence.
00:16:53His heart is of such power,
00:16:56I must obey.
00:17:00Come unto these yellow sands,
00:17:11and then take rest.
00:17:17But sleep when you have had kiss'd,
00:17:24the wild waves whisk'd.
00:17:32Foot it's feetly here and there,
00:17:35and sweet sprites the bourbon bear.
00:17:41Hark! Hark!
00:17:43The watchdogs bark.
00:17:46Hark! Hark! I hear
00:17:49the strain of strutting shanter clear.
00:17:52Dry cock-a-doodle-doe!
00:17:58Cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle-doe!
00:18:08It sounds no more.
00:18:11Sitting on a bank, weeping again the king my father's wreck,
00:18:14this music crept by me upon the waters,
00:18:16allaying both their fury and my passion with its sweet air.
00:18:20Thence have I followed it,
00:18:23or it hath drawn me rather,
00:18:26but tis gone.
00:18:35No, it begins again.
00:18:37This is no mortal business.
00:18:40The fringed curtains of thy eye advance,
00:18:44and say what thou see'st.
00:18:46Yon.
00:18:51What is't? A spirit?
00:18:54Lord, how it looks about!
00:18:56Believe me, sir, it carries a brave form, but tis a spirit.
00:19:00Though when it eats and sleeps, and has such senses,
00:19:03This gallant whom thou see'st was in the wreck.
00:19:06He hath lost his fellows, and strays about to find them.
00:19:09Thou mightst call him a goodly person.
00:19:12Oh, I might call him a thing divine,
00:19:15for nothing natural I ever saw so noble.
00:19:20It goes on, I see, as my soul prompts it.
00:19:23Spirit, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire.
00:19:29It goes on, I see, as my soul prompts it.
00:19:32Spirit, fine spirit, I'll free thee within two days for this.
00:19:45Most sure, the goddess on whom these airs attend.
00:19:48Vouchsafe my prayer may know if you remain upon this island,
00:19:52and that you will some good instruction give how I may bear me here.
00:19:55My primary quest, which I do last pronounce, is...
00:19:58Oh, you wonder if you be made or no.
00:20:03No wonder, sir, but certainly a maid.
00:20:05My language, heavens!
00:20:07I am the best of them that speak this speech, were I but were it spoken.
00:20:10How, the best? But without the king of Naples hurting?
00:20:14A single thing as I am now that wonders to hear thee speak of Naples.
00:20:18Myself am Naples, who with mine eyes beheld the king my father wrecked.
00:20:22A lack for mercy?
00:20:24Yes, faith, and all his lords.
00:20:29At the first sight they have changed eyes.
00:20:32Yet this swift business I must uneasy make,
00:20:36lest too light winning make the prize light.
00:20:39Good sir, a word. I fear you've done yourself some wrong. A word.
00:20:43Why speaks my father so ungently?
00:20:46This is the third man that e'er I saw, the first that e'er I sighed for.
00:20:50Pity move my father to be inclined my way.
00:20:52O, if a virgin in your affection not gone forth, I'll make you the queen of Naples.
00:20:56I charge that thou attend me.
00:20:58Thou dost here usurp the name thou o'st not,
00:21:01and hast set thyself upon this island as a spy, to win it from me, the lord aunt.
00:21:05No, as I am a man.
00:21:06There's nothing ill can dwell in such a temple.
00:21:09If the ill spirit have so fair a house, good things will strive to dwell with.
00:21:13Come on, follow. Speak not you vain. He's a traitor. Come on.
00:21:16I'll manacle thy neck and feet together.
00:21:19No, I will resist such entertainment till an enemy has more power.
00:21:23O, dear father, make not to rash a trial of him, for he's gentle and not fearful.
00:21:26But I say my foot, my tutor, put your sword up, traitor,
00:21:29that makes the sober guest not fight thy consciences so possessed with guilt.
00:21:34I can here disarm thee with this stick, and make thy weapon drop.
00:21:42O, beseech you, father.
00:21:43Bitch, hang not on my garments.
00:21:45Sir, have pity. I'll be his shurik.
00:21:47Silence one word, more shall make me chide thee, if not hate thee.
00:21:50What, an advocate for an imposter?
00:21:55Thou think'st there is no more such shapes as he, having seen but him and Caliban.
00:22:00Foolish wench, to the most of men, this is a Caliban, and they to him are angels.
00:22:07My affections are then most humble. I have no ambition to see a goodlier man.
00:22:13Come on. Obey.
00:22:18Have comfort, sir. My father's of a better nature than he appears by speech.
00:22:24This is unwanted, which now came from him.
00:22:26Come, follow.
00:22:32Speak not for him.
00:22:35It works. Thou hast done well, fine Ariel.
00:22:39Thou shalt be free as mountain winds.
00:23:17Let him suck up from bogs, fens, flats, on prosper fall,
00:23:22and make him by inchmeal a disease.
00:23:30Spirits hear me, and yet I need must curse.
00:23:33But they'll not pitch, fright me with urchin shows, pitch me at the mire,
00:23:38nor lead me like a firebrand of the dark out of my way, unless he be him.
00:23:44For every trifle are they set upon me, sometimes like apes,
00:23:48that mow and shatter at me, and after, bite me,
00:23:51and then like hedgehogs, which lie tumbling in my barefoot way,
00:23:55and mount their pricks at my footfall.
00:23:57Sometimes, am I all wound with adders, with cloven tongues to hiss me into madness.
00:24:07No, no, no.
00:24:10Here comes the spirit of his, and to torment me for bringing wood home slowly.
00:24:15I fall flat, perchance he will not mind me.
00:24:19Oh, oh, oh.
00:24:38Another storm brewing, I hear it sing in the wind.
00:24:42Yon same cloud, yon huge one, looks like a foul bombard that would shed his liquor.
00:24:50If it should thunder as it did before, I know not where to hide my head.
00:24:55Yon same cloud cannot choose but fall by pale folds.
00:25:05What have we here? A man or a fish? Dead or alive?
00:25:11A fish.
00:25:14Very ancient and fish-like smell.
00:25:17A strange fish, legged like a man, and his fins like arms.
00:25:22Warm on my troth.
00:25:25I do now let loose my opinion, hold it no longer.
00:25:28This is no fish, but an islander that hath lately suffered by a thunderbolt.
00:25:33Alas, the storm is come again.
00:25:37My best way is to creep under his gabardine.
00:25:40There's no other shelter here about.
00:25:43Misery doth acquaint a man with strange bedfellows.
00:25:47Marshal, saw the boast, and I am going to attend his fete.
00:25:50Love them all, make him marry, and a marriage arrive.
00:25:52But none of them cared for Kate, for she had a tongue and a tang,
00:25:55Would cry to a sailor, go hang.
00:25:58She loved not the sabre of tar or pitch,
00:26:00Yet a tailor might scratch her where'er she did itch.
00:26:02Then to sea, boys, and let her go hang.
00:26:05Then to sea, boys, and let her go...
00:26:08Oh, this is a scurvy tune.
00:26:11But here is me comfort.
00:26:15Have we devils here?
00:26:20I have not escaped a drowning to be afeard now of your forelegs.
00:26:25This is some monster of the island.
00:26:28You've got, as I take it, an egg you have.
00:26:31The spirit amends me.
00:26:34Where the devil should he learn our language?
00:26:36I will give him some relief, if it be but for that.
00:26:40Oh!
00:26:41If I can recover him and keep him tame and get to Naples with him,
00:26:44He's a present for any emperor.
00:26:46Do not torment me, Prithee.
00:26:48I'll bring my wood home faster.
00:26:50Oh, he's in his fit now and does not talk after the wisest.
00:26:54He shall taste of my bottle.
00:26:56If he have never drunk afore, it will go near to remove his fit.
00:26:59Now open your mouth.
00:27:01Here is that which will give language to your cat.
00:27:09You cannot tell who's your friend.
00:27:12Open your mouth again.
00:27:15I should know that voice.
00:27:17It should be.
00:27:18But he is drowned and these are devils.
00:27:20Oh, defend me!
00:27:22Four legs and two voices.
00:27:24Most delicate monster.
00:27:25Come, come.
00:27:29I will pour some in thy other mouth.
00:27:36Stefano!
00:27:37My other mouth, call me.
00:27:39This is a devil and no monster.
00:27:41Oh, Stefano!
00:27:42Thou be'st, Stefano, touch me and speak to me, for I am Trinculo.
00:27:45Be not afeard, thy good friend Trinculo.
00:27:48If thou be'st to Trinculo, come forth.
00:27:56I will pull thee by thy lesser legs.
00:27:59If any be Trinculo's legs, these are theirs.
00:28:03Oh, thou art very Trinculo indeed.
00:28:07But art thou not drowned, Stefano?
00:28:10And art thou living, Stefano?
00:28:12Oh, Stefano, to Neapolitan scape.
00:28:15Do not turn me about.
00:28:16My stomach is not constant.
00:28:19These be fine things, and if they be not sprites,
00:28:22that's a brave god and bare celestial liquor.
00:28:27I will kneel to him.
00:28:29If thou scape, how cam'st thou hither?
00:28:31Swear by this bottle how thou cam'st hither.
00:28:34I swear upon that bottle to be thy true subject,
00:28:37for the liquor is not earthly.
00:28:39Here, I scaped upon a bottle-sack,
00:28:42which the sailors heaved overboard.
00:28:44Swear then how thou escapest.
00:28:46Swear, my sure man, like a duck.
00:28:48I can swim like a duck, I'll be sworn.
00:28:50Here, here, kiss the book.
00:29:00I can swim like a duck, thou art made like a goose.
00:29:03Oh, Stefano, hast any more of this?
00:29:06The whole bottom end.
00:29:08My cellar is in a rock by the seaside,
00:29:11where my wine is hid.
00:29:13How now, moon-calf, how dost thy egg you?
00:29:18Hast thou not dropped from heaven?
00:29:21Out of the moon, I do assure thee.
00:29:23I was the man in the moon when time was.
00:29:25I've seen thee, and I do adore thee.
00:29:28Come, swear to that.
00:29:30Kiss the book.
00:29:31I will furnish it anon with new contents.
00:29:33Swear.
00:29:34By this good light, this is a very shallow monster.
00:29:37I feared of him, a very weak monster,
00:29:41the man in the moon.
00:29:43A most poor, credulent monster.
00:29:45Oh.
00:29:55Well drawn, monster, in good sooth.
00:30:00I'll show thee every fertile inch of the isle,
00:30:03and I will kiss thy foot.
00:30:05I'll swear myself thy subject.
00:30:07Well, come on, then.
00:30:09Down and swear.
00:30:13Oh, I shall laugh myself to death at this puppy-headed monster.
00:30:17I could find in my heart to beat him.
00:30:19Come, kiss.
00:30:20That the poor monster's in drink.
00:30:22An abominable monster.
00:30:24A plague upon the tyrant that I serve.
00:30:27I bear him no more tips,
00:30:29but follow thee, thou wondrous man.
00:30:33I pray thee, let me bring thee to where crabs grow,
00:30:36and I with my long nails will dig thee pigments,
00:30:39show thee a jay's nest,
00:30:41and instruct thee how to snare the nimble marmoset.
00:30:44I'll bring thee to clustering, Philbert,
00:30:46and sometimes I'll get thee young scammels from the rock.
00:30:50Wilt thou go with me?
00:30:52Drink it all.
00:30:54The king and all our company else being drowned,
00:30:57we will inherit here.
00:30:59Here, brave monster, bear my bottle, lead the way.
00:31:05Farewell, master.
00:31:07Farewell, master.
00:31:09Farewell.
00:31:11Farewell.
00:31:13A howling monster, a drunken monster.
00:31:16No dams I'll make for fish.
00:31:19No fetching, firing at the requiring.
00:31:23No straight rangering, no washing.
00:31:26Lead the way.
00:31:27Ban, ban to Caliban.
00:31:30Have a new master.
00:31:33Get a new man.
00:31:36Ban, ban to Caliban.
00:31:57Is he to shall be merry?
00:31:59Of course, so have we all of joy,
00:32:01but our escape is much beyond our loss.
00:32:04Very peace.
00:32:05Though this island seem to be a desert,
00:32:08uninhabitable and almost inaccessible.
00:32:10Yet.
00:32:11Yet the air breathes upon us here most sweetly.
00:32:14Here is everything advantageous to light.
00:32:17True, save means to live.
00:32:19How lush and lusty the grass looks, how green.
00:32:22Yet.
00:32:23Yet the rarity of it is, which is indeed almost beyond credit,
00:32:26that our garments, being as they were drenched in the sea,
00:32:29are now as fresh as when we first put them on.
00:32:31He's got my garment, sir, as fresh as the first day I wore it.
00:32:34I mean in the salt.
00:32:35You cram these words into mine ears against the stomach of my sense.
00:32:39My son is lost.
00:32:41Thine heir again shall see him.
00:32:43O thou, mine heir of Naples and of Milan.
00:32:47What strange fish hath made his meal on thee?
00:32:50We have lost your son, I fear, forever.
00:32:54Milan and Naples have more widows in them than this business,
00:32:57making them need bring men to comfort them.
00:32:59My lord Sebastian, the truth you speak
00:33:01doth lack some gentleness and time to speak it in.
00:33:04You rub the sore when you should bring the plaster.
00:33:08It is foul weather in us all, good sir, when you are cloudy.
00:33:12Foul weather?
00:33:13Very foul.
00:33:15Had I plantation of this isle, my lord,
00:33:17and were the king on it, what would I do?
00:33:19In the commonwealth, I would by contraries execute all things,
00:33:23for no kind of traffic would I admit.
00:33:25No name of magistrate.
00:33:28Powers should not be known.
00:33:30Riches, poverty, and use of service, none.
00:33:33No use of metal, corn, or wine, or oil.
00:33:37No occupation.
00:33:40All men idle, all.
00:33:42And women too, but innocent and pure.
00:33:45No sovereignty.
00:33:47Yet he'd be king, aren't?
00:33:48All things in common nature would produce
00:33:51without sweat or endeavour.
00:33:53Treason, felony, sword, pike, knife, gun,
00:33:56or need of any engine would I not have,
00:33:58but nature would bring forth of its own kind
00:34:01all poison, all abundance, to feed my innocent people.
00:34:07I would with such perfection govern, sir,
00:34:10to excel the golden age.
00:34:12Long live Gonzalo!
00:34:15Pray you no more.
00:34:16Thou dost talk nothing to me.
00:34:19What?
00:34:21So soon asleep.
00:34:24I wish mine eyes would with themselves
00:34:27shut up my thoughts.
00:34:31I find they are inclined to do so.
00:34:33We too, my lord, will guard your person
00:34:35while you take your rest and watch your safety.
00:34:40Wondrous heavy.
00:34:46What a strange drowsiness possesses them.
00:34:50It is the quality of the climate.
00:34:52Why doth it not then our eyelids sink?
00:34:54I find not meself disposed to sleep.
00:34:57Ay, my spirits are nimble.
00:34:59They fell together as by consent.
00:35:03They dropped as by a thunderstroke.
00:35:08What might were they, Sebastian?
00:35:10Oh, what might!
00:35:12And yet...
00:35:13Yes?
00:35:14My strong imagination sees a crown
00:35:17dropping upon thy head.
00:35:19What?
00:35:21Art thou waking?
00:35:22Do you not hear me speak?
00:35:23Well, I do, and surely it is a sleepy language,
00:35:26and thou speak'st out of thy sleep.
00:35:30Well, prithee, say on.
00:35:32The setting of thine eye and cheek
00:35:33proclaim a matter from thee.
00:35:35Thus, sir,
00:35:36tis as impossible the king's son's yet alive
00:35:38as he that sleeps here swims.
00:35:40Oh, I have no hope that he's undrown.
00:35:42Oh, out of that no hope,
00:35:44what great hope have you?
00:35:46No hope that way is another way so high in hope
00:35:48that even ambition cannot pierce a wink beyond
00:35:50but doubts discovery there.
00:35:52Will you grant with me that Ferdinand is drowned?
00:35:56But he's gone.
00:35:57Then tell me, who is the next heir of Naples?
00:36:01Oh!
00:36:03Say this were death that now hath seized them.
00:36:05Why, they were no worse than now they are.
00:36:08Maybe that can rule Naples as well as he that sleeps.
00:36:11Lords that can prate as amply and unnecessarily
00:36:14as this Gonzalo,
00:36:15I myself could make a chaff of his deep chat.
00:36:19Oh, that you bore the mind that I do.
00:36:22What a sleep were this for your advancement.
00:36:28Do you understand me?
00:36:30Yes, I remember.
00:36:31You did supplant your brother Prospero.
00:36:34True.
00:36:35And look how well my garments sit upon me.
00:36:38But for your conscience.
00:36:40Ay, sir, where lies that?
00:36:42I feel not this deity in my bosom.
00:36:46Here lies your brother,
00:36:47whom I, with this obedient steel,
00:36:49three inches of it can lay to bed forever,
00:36:51whilst you doing thus to this ancient morsel.
00:36:53One case, dear friend, shall be my precedent.
00:36:56As thou goutst Milan, I'll come by Naples.
00:36:59Draw thy sword.
00:37:01One stroke shall free thee from the tribute which thou payest,
00:37:05and I, the king, shall love thee.
00:37:07My master through his aunt
00:37:09foresees the danger that you, his friend, are in
00:37:12and sends me forth,
00:37:13for else his project dies to keep thee living.
00:37:17While you here do snoring lie,
00:37:19open-eyed conspiracy it's time doth take.
00:37:21If of life you have a care, shake off slumber and beware.
00:37:24Awake! Awake!
00:37:25Good ease, and preserve the king!
00:37:27Awake!
00:37:30Why are you drawn? Wherefore this ghastly looking?
00:37:32What's the matter?
00:37:34Whilst we stood here, securing your repose,
00:37:37but even now we heard a hollow burst of bellowing like bulls,
00:37:40or rather lions.
00:37:42But did not wait you, it struck my ear most terribly.
00:37:45I heard nothing.
00:37:46It was a den to fright a monster's ear,
00:37:48to make an earthquake.
00:37:49Sure, it was the roar of a whole herd of lions.
00:37:52Heard you this, Gonzalo?
00:37:54Upon mine honour, sir, there was a humming,
00:37:56and a strange one too, which did awake me.
00:37:58I shaked you, sir, and cried.
00:38:00As mine eyes opened, I saw the weppies drone.
00:38:02There was a noise, that's verily.
00:38:05Tis best we stand upon our guard, or that we quit this place.
00:38:08Lead off this ground, and let's make further search for my poor son.
00:38:12Heavens, keep him from these beasts,
00:38:14for he is sure of the island.
00:38:16Lead away.
00:38:32Bravely hast thou performed, my Ariel,
00:38:35my high-charm's work.
00:38:37These mine enemies are all knit up in their distractions.
00:38:41They now are in my power.
00:39:11A BEE'S SOME SPORTS ARE PAINFUL,
00:39:29AND THEIR LABOUR TO LIGHTEN THEM SETS OFF.
00:39:31SOME KINDS OF BASENESS ARE NOBLY UNDERGONE,
00:39:34AND MOST POOR MATTERS POINT TO RICH ENDS.
00:39:38This, my mean task, would be as heavy to me as odious.
00:39:42The mistress which I serve flickens what's dead,
00:39:46and makes my labours pleasures.
00:39:49Oh, she is ten times more gentle than her father's crabbit,
00:39:54and he's composed of harshness.
00:39:56I must remove some thousands of these logs, and pile them up.
00:40:01These sweet thoughts do even refresh my labours.
00:40:07Alas, now, pray, you work not so hard.
00:40:10Would the lightning had burnt up these logs that you're enjoying to pile.
00:40:13Pray, set it down, and rest you.
00:40:15My father's hard at study. He's safe for these three hours.
00:40:19Most dear mistress, the sun will set before I shall discharge what I must strive to do.
00:40:23If you'll sit down, I'll bear your logs a while.
00:40:26Pray give me that. I'll carry it to the pile.
00:40:28No, precious creature.
00:40:30I had rather crack my sinews, break my back,
00:40:33than you should such dishonour undergo while I sit lazy by.
00:40:37It would become me as well as it does you,
00:40:39and I should do it with much more ease.
00:40:42Ah, you look wearily.
00:40:44No, precious creature.
00:40:46Tis fresh morning with me when you are by at night.
00:40:51I do beseech you, chiefly that I may set it in my prayers.
00:40:55What is your name?
00:40:57Miranda.
00:40:59Admired Miranda, indeed the top of admiration, worth what's dearest to the world.
00:41:04Full many a lady have I eyed with best regard,
00:41:07and many a time the harmony of their tongues within the bondage brought my too diligent ear.
00:41:11For several virtues have I liked several women,
00:41:14but never any with so full soul but some defect in her did quarrel
00:41:18with the noblest grace she owed and put it to the foil.
00:41:22But you, oh, you so perfect and so peerless,
00:41:26are created of every creature's best.
00:41:30I do not know one of my sex.
00:41:32No woman's face remember, save from my glass mine own.
00:41:35Nor have I seen more that I may call men than you, good friend, and my dear father.
00:41:40How features are abroad I am skilled as of,
00:41:43but why my modesty, the jewel in my dower,
00:41:47I would not wish any companion in the world but you.
00:41:50Nor can imagination form a shape besides yourself till I go.
00:41:55Travel something too wildly are my father's precepts I therein do forget.
00:42:00I am in my condition a prince, Miranda, I do think a king.
00:42:04Hear my soul speak.
00:42:06The very instant that I saw you did my heart fly to your service,
00:42:09there resides to make me slave to it.
00:42:12And for your sake am I this patient log-man.
00:42:17Do you love me?
00:42:19Oh, heaven, oh, earth, bear witness to this sound,
00:42:22and crown what I profess with kind event if I speak true.
00:42:25I beyond all limit of what else in the world do love, prize, honor you.
00:42:33Oh, I am a fool to weep at what I am glad of.
00:42:37Wherefore weep you?
00:42:40At mine unworthiness, that dare not offer what I desire to give,
00:42:44and much less take what I shall die to want.
00:42:47But this is trifling, and all the more it seeks to hide itself the bigger bulk it shows.
00:42:53I am your wife if you will marry me.
00:42:55If not, I'll die your maid.
00:42:57To be your fellow you may deny me, but I'll be your servant whether you will or no.
00:43:01My mistress dearest, and I thus humble ever.
00:43:05My husband, then?
00:43:06I with a heart as willing as bondage e'er of freedom.
00:43:10Here's my hand.
00:43:12And mine, my heart yet.
00:43:18Now farewell, till half an hour hence.
00:43:22A thousand, a thousand.
00:43:33So glad of this as they I cannot be that are surprised withal.
00:43:38Yet my rejoicing at nothing can be more.
00:43:42Heaven's rain grace on that which breeds between them.
00:43:47Heaven's rain grace on that which breeds between them.
00:43:53For it is free, for it is free.
00:43:57Actually for it is free, for it is free.
00:44:02Actually for it is free, for it is free.
00:44:07Actually for it is free.
00:44:13They fail us but five upon the side.
00:44:16We are three of them. If t'other two be brained like us, let's state Tartars.
00:44:24Drink, servant monster, when I bid thee. When the butt is out, we will drink water, not a drop before.
00:44:29Oh, thy eyes are always set in my head.
00:44:32Where should they be set else? He were a brave monster, indeed, if they were set in his tail.
00:44:37Which I do all. The poor monster is my subject. He shall not suffer indignity.
00:44:43I thank my noble lord. Wilt thou be pleased to harken once again unto the suit I made to thee?
00:44:50Mary, will I? Kneel and repeat it. I will stand, and so shall drink alone.
00:44:55As I told thee before, I am subject to a tyrant, a sorcerer, that by his cunning hath cheated me of the island.
00:45:04Thou liest.
00:45:05Thou liest? Thou jesting monkey, thou? I would my valiant master would destroy thee. I do not lie.
00:45:11I say, hero, interrupt my monster's tale, and by this hand I will supplant some of your teeth.
00:45:15Why, I said nothing.
00:45:16None then, and no more. Proceed.
00:45:19I say, by sorcery he got this island.
00:45:22From me he got it. If thy greatness will revenge it upon him, thou shalt be lord of it, and I will serve thee.
00:45:30How now can this be compassed? Canst thou bring me to the party?
00:45:33Yea, yea, my lord. I'll yield him thee a sweep where thou mayst knock a nail into his head.
00:45:38Thou liest. Thou canst not.
00:45:41What a pine, and is this a scurvy patch? I do beseech thy greatness, give him blows, and take his bottle from him.
00:45:49Drink, hero, interrupt the monster one word further, and by this hand I'll make a stockfish of thee.
00:45:54What did I? I did nothing.
00:45:56Didst thou not say he lied?
00:45:57Thou liest.
00:45:58How now I so take thou that? As you like this, give me the lie another time.
00:46:02Beat him enough. After a little while I'll beat him too.
00:46:06Stand further off.
00:46:15Go forward with your tail.
00:46:17As I said, it is a custom with him in the afternoon to sleep.
00:46:21There thou mayst brain him, having first seized his books, or with a log batter his skull,
00:46:27or paunch him with a stake, or cut his weasel with thy knife.
00:46:31Remember first to possess his books, for without them he's but as sought as I am.
00:46:36Nor hath not one spirit to command, they all do hate him as rutidly as I.
00:46:40Burn but his books, and that most deeply to consider is the beauty of his daughter.
00:46:47He himself calls her a non-pariah.
00:46:52I never saw a woman but only Sycorax, my dam, and she.
00:46:56I never saw a woman but only Sycorax, my dam, and she.
00:46:59But she is far surpasseth Sycorax, as great as least.
00:47:05He is so brave of that.
00:47:07Yea, yea, she will become thy bed, I warrant thee, and bring thee forth brave brood.
00:47:13Monster, I will kill this man.
00:47:18His daughter and I will be king and queen, save our graces.
00:47:21And Trinculo and thyself shall be viceroys.
00:47:24Dost thou like the plot, Trinculo?
00:47:26Excellent.
00:47:28I am sorry I beat thee.
00:47:32Give me thy hand.
00:47:34But whilst thou lives, keep a good tongue in thy head.
00:47:37Thou makest me merry, I am full of pleasure.
00:47:40Let us be jocund.
00:47:42Will you troll the cat you taught me, Budweiler?
00:47:44Come on, Trinculo, let us sing.
00:47:46And scoutum, and scoutum, and scoutum, and scoutum
00:47:52And floutum, and floutum, and floutum
00:48:00Thought is free.
00:48:05What is this?
00:48:07This is the tune of our catch, sung by the picture of nobody.
00:48:11O, forgive me my sins.
00:48:12Mercy upon us.
00:48:14At our feet? No, monster, not I. Do not be afeard. The isle is full of noises, sounds, and sweet airs that give delight and hurt not.
00:48:27Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments will hum about mine ears, and sometimes voices, that if I then had waked after long sleep would make me sleep again.
00:48:41And then, in dreaming, the clouds methought would open, and show riches ready to drop upon me, that when I waked I cried to dream again.
00:48:56This will prove a brave kingdom to me, where I shall have my music for nothing.
00:49:01And Prospero is destroyed. Within this half hour will he be asleep. Will thou destroy him then?
00:49:06Aye, all mine honour will come. I'll follow, Stephano. Forward!
00:49:24This will I tell my master.
00:49:26By a dakin I can go no farther, sir, my old bones ache.
00:49:40Go, old lord, I cannot blame thee. Sit down and rest. In here I will put off my hope, and keep it no longer for my flatterer.
00:49:50He is drowned, whom thus we stray to find at the sea. Mocks our frustrated search on land? Well, let him go.
00:50:02I am right glad that he's so out of hope. Do not, for one repulse, forgo the purpose that you resolved to effect.
00:50:08The next advantage will we take throughly.
00:50:10Let it be tonight.
00:50:11No more.
00:50:12I say tonight.
00:50:15Their great guilt, like poison given to work a great while after, nowgins to bite the spirit. Let them be hunted soundly.
00:50:27What harmony is this? My good prince, marvelous sweet music striking such harmonies.
00:50:35Oh, I think drollery. If in Naples I should report this now, would they believe me?
00:50:42If I should say, I saw such islanders, for, sir, these are people of the island, who, though they're of monstrous shape, yet note their manners are more gentle kind than of our human generation you shall find many, nay, almost any.
00:51:09Were they vanished strangely?
00:51:14You are three men of sin, whom destiny that hath to instrument this lower world, and what is it, the never surfeited sea hath caused to belch up.
00:51:27Yea, and on this island, where man doth not inhabit, you, amongst men, being most unfit to live, I have made you masked.
00:51:40You fools! I and my fellows are ministers of fate. The elements from whom your swords are tempered may as well wound the loud winds as diminish one dowel that's in my plume.
00:51:53My fellow ministers are like invulnerable. If you could hurt, your swords are now too massy for your strengths and will not be uplifted.
00:52:08But remember, for that's my business to you, that you three from Milan did supplant good Prospero, exposed unto the sea which hath requit it, him and his innocent child, for which foul deed the powers, delaying, not forgetting, have incensed the seas and shores, yea, all the creatures against your peace, thee of thy son Alonso have they bereft.
00:52:36And, do pronounce by me, lingering perdition, worse than any death can be at once, shall step by step attend you and your ways, whose wrath to guard you from, which here in this most desolate isle else falls upon your heads, is nothing but hard sorrow,
00:53:02and a clear life ensuing.
00:53:15The long day's task is done. I could well wish courtesy would invent some other custom of entertainment.
00:53:23If I have too austerely punished you, your compensation makes amends, for I have given you here a third of mine own life, or that for which I live. All thy vexations were but my trials of thy love, and thou hast strongly stood the test. Now, for heaven, as my gift and thine own acquisition worthily purchased, take my daughter.
00:53:46As I hope for quiet days, fair issue, and long life, with such a love as tis now, the murkiest den, the most opportune place, the strongest suggestion our worser genius can, shall never melt mine honour into lust.
00:53:58Ah, fairly spoke. Sit then and talk with her. She is thine own.
00:54:07What, Ariel? My industrious servant, Ariel.
00:54:17What would my potent master?
00:54:22Here I am.
00:54:24Thou and thy meaner fellows, this last service did worthily perform, and I must use thee in such another trick. Go, fetch the rabble, or whom I give thee charge, here to this place. Incite them to quick motion, for I must bestow upon the eyes of this young couple some vanity of my heart. It is my promise, and they expect it of me.
00:54:45Presently?
00:54:47Ay, with a twink.
00:54:51Before you can say, come and go, and breathe twice, and cry, so, so, each one, tripping on his toe, will be here with mop and bow.
00:55:01Do you love me, master? No?
00:55:05Dearly, my delicate Ariel.
00:55:10Do not approach till thou dost hear me call.
00:55:15Ahem. Do not give dalliance too much the rain. The strongest oaths are straw to the fire in the blood. Be more abstemious, or else good night your vow.
00:55:28I warrant you, sir, the white cold virgin snow upon my heart abates the ardour of my liver.
00:55:34Well, come, my Ariel, appear, and pertly, no tongue, all eyes, be silent.
00:55:46All the riches, marriage, blessing, long continuance and increasing,
00:55:59All the joys be still upon you. Juno sings her blessings on you.
00:56:08Herbs increase, boys, and plenty. Bards and garners never empty.
00:56:17Buys with clustering, bunches growing.
00:56:20Plants with goodly burden mowing. Spring come to you and the harvest.
00:56:29Give a merry end of harvest. Scarcity and want shall shun you.
00:56:38Seer is blessing, so is on you.
00:56:52Oh, I had forgot that foul conspiracy of the beast Calibel and his confederates against my life.
00:56:58The minute of their plot is almost come. Well done. Avoid no more.
00:57:04This is strange. Your father's in some passion that works him strongly.
00:57:08Never to this day saw him touched with angers of this temper.
00:57:11Sir, I am fixed. Bear with my weakness. My old brain is troubled. Be not disturbed with my infirmity.
00:57:18If you be pleased, you retire into my cell and there repose.
00:57:25We wish your peace.
00:57:27Come with a thought. I think thee. Ariel, come.
00:57:35Thy thoughts I cleave to. What's thy pleasure?
00:57:37Spirit, we must prepare to meet with Calibel.
00:57:39Ay, my commander. I had thought to have told thee of it, but I feared lest I might anger thee.
00:57:43They thee trumpery in my house. Go fetch it hither as stale to catch these thieves.
00:57:49I go. I go!
00:57:51Devil abhorn, devil on whose nature nurture will never stick.
00:57:55On whom my pains humanely taken, all, all lost, quite lost.
00:58:01And as with age his body uglier grows, so his mind cankers.
00:58:06Come, hang them on this line.
00:58:09Say again, where didst thou leave these valets?
00:58:13I told you, sir, they were red-hot with dread.
00:58:15Valets? I told you, sir, they were red-hot with drinking.
00:58:18So full of valour that they smote the air for breathing in their faces.
00:58:23So I charmed their ears, that calf-like.
00:58:26They, my lowing, followed through toothed briars, sharp furses, pricking goss, and thorns,
00:58:32which entered their frail shins.
00:58:34At last I left them in the filthy mantle pool beyond your cell.
00:58:38There, dancing up to the chins that the foul lake o'erstumped their feet.
00:58:43This was well done, my bird.
00:58:46Thy shape invisible retain thou still?
00:58:49I will plaid them all even to roaring.
00:58:55Grail, tread softly that the blind mole may not hear a footfall.
00:58:59We are now near his cell.
00:59:03Your fairy monster, which you say is a harmless fairy,
00:59:06has done little better than plaid the jack with us.
00:59:09Ay, to lose our bottles in the pool.
00:59:12There is not only disgrace and dishonour in that monster, but an infinite loss.
00:59:17Yes, that's more to me than my wedding.
00:59:20Yet this is your harmless fairy monster.
00:59:36You here, if I should take a displeasure against you, look you.
00:59:41Thou wert but a lost monster.
00:59:44Reading thy king, be quiet.
00:59:46This is the mouth of the cell. No noise and enter.
00:59:50Do that good mischief which will make this island thine own forever.
00:59:54And I thy caliban, for I thy foot-licker.
00:59:59Give me thy hand. I do begin to have bloody thoughts.
01:00:12Oh, worthy Stephano.
01:00:15Oh, peer, look what a wardrobe here is for thee.
01:00:19Let it alone now, fool. It is but trash.
01:00:21Oh, monster, we know what belongs to a frippery.
01:00:25Oh, King Stephano.
01:00:29Trinculo, put off that gown. By this hand, I will have that gown.
01:00:32Thy grace shall have it.
01:00:34Dropsy, drown this fool. What do you mean to dote us on such luggage?
01:00:37Let's all on and do the murder first.
01:00:39If he awake from total crown, he'll fill our skins with pincers.
01:00:42Make us strange stuff.
01:00:44Here's a garment for thee, which shall not go unrewarded while I am king of this country.
01:00:48I'll have none of it.
01:00:50There's another for thee.
01:00:52I'll have this and this.
01:00:55Help! Help! Help! Help!
01:01:06They roar.
01:01:08Let them be hunted soundly.
01:01:10At this hour, lie at my mercy all mine enemies.
01:01:14Shortly shall all my labors end, and thou shalt have at thee air and freedom.
01:01:19For a little, follow and do me service.
01:01:24THE END
01:01:42How does my project gather to a head?
01:01:44My charms crack, not my spirits obey, and time goes upright with his carriage.
01:01:49How's the day?
01:01:51On the sixth hour.
01:01:53At which time, my lord, you said our work should cease.
01:01:56I did say so when first I raised the tempest.
01:01:59Say, spirit, how fares the king and his followers?
01:02:02Confined together in the same fashion as you gave in charge.
01:02:05Just as you left them, all prisoners, sir.
01:02:08They cannot budge till your release.
01:02:10The king, his brother, and yours abide, all three distracted, brimful of sorrow and dismay.
01:02:16But...
01:02:19Chiefly, him you termed, sir, the good old lord Gonzalo?
01:02:24His tears run down his beard like winter's drops from eaves of reeds,
01:02:28so strongly your charm works, and that if you now beheld them, your affections would become tender.
01:02:33Dost thou think so, spirit?
01:02:36Mine would, sir.
01:02:38Were I human?
01:02:39And mine shall.
01:02:42Hast thou but air, a touch, a feeling of their afflictions,
01:02:46and shall not myself, one of their kind, that relish all as sharply a passion as they,
01:02:52be kindlier moved than thou art?
01:02:54Though with their high wrongs I am struck to the quick,
01:02:58yet with my nobler reason against my fury do I take part.
01:03:04The rarer action is in virtue than in vengeance.
01:03:08They being penitent, the sole drift of my purpose doth extend not a frown further.
01:03:14Go, bring them here.
01:03:16My charms I'll break, their senses I'll restore, and they shall be themselves.
01:03:26I'll fetch them, sir.
01:03:29THE ELVES OF HILLS
01:03:40Ye elves of hills, brooks, standing lakes and groves,
01:03:46and ye that on the sands with printless foot do chase the ebbing Neptune,
01:03:52and do fly him when he comes back,
01:03:55ye demi-puppets that by moonshine do the green sour ringlets make,
01:04:01whereof the yew not bites,
01:04:03and ye whose pastime is to make midnight mushrooms,
01:04:08that rejoice to hear the solemn curfew,
01:04:11by whose aid weak masters though ye be,
01:04:14I have bedimmed the noontide sun,
01:04:18called forth the mutinous winds,
01:04:20and twixt the green sea and the azured vault set roaring war,
01:04:25to the dread rattling thunder of I-given fire,
01:04:29and rafted Jove's scout out with his own boat,
01:04:33the strong-based promontory of I made shake,
01:04:36and by the spurs plucked up the pine and cedar,
01:04:40graves at my command evoked,
01:04:42wake their sleepers and let them forth by my so potent art.
01:04:50But this rough magic I here abjure,
01:04:55and when I have required some heavenly music,
01:04:58which even now I do,
01:05:01I'll break my staff,
01:05:04bury it certain fathoms in the earth,
01:05:08and deeper than did ever plummet sound,
01:05:11I'll drown my book.
01:05:21Ah!
01:05:44Here stand,
01:05:46for you are all spill-stopped.
01:05:49O good Gonzalo, my true preserver,
01:05:52and a worthy sir to him thou follow'st,
01:05:56I will pay thy graces home both in word and deed.
01:06:01Most cruelly didst thou alone so use me and my daughter.
01:06:05Thy brother was a further in this act.
01:06:07Thou had pitched for it now, Sebastian,
01:06:11flesh and blood.
01:06:13You, brother mine, that entertained ambition,
01:06:15expelled remorse and nature,
01:06:17who with Sebastian would here have killed your king.
01:06:22I do forgive thee. Unnatural dost thou art.
01:06:26The charm dissolves apace,
01:06:29and as the morning steals upon the night,
01:06:31melting the darkness,
01:06:33so their rising senses begin to chase the ignorant fumes
01:06:37that mantle their clearer reason.
01:06:40Release them, Ariel.
01:06:42I will discase me,
01:06:44and myself present as I was sometime,
01:06:48Milan.
01:06:54Where thee sucks, there suck I.
01:07:01In a cow slips bell I lie.
01:07:07There I couch when owls do cry.
01:07:12On a bat's back I do fly.
01:07:17After summer, merrily,
01:07:22merrily, merrily, shall I live now
01:07:26under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
01:07:31Merrily, merrily, shall I live now
01:07:35under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
01:07:42Aye, that's my dainty Ariel.
01:07:46I shall miss thee, but yet thou shalt have freedom.
01:07:50Set Caliban and his companions free,
01:07:52untie the spell, and presently I prithee.
01:07:56I drink the air before me,
01:07:59and return o'er air your pulse twice beat.
01:08:05All torment, trouble, wonder, and amazement inhabit here.
01:08:09Some heavenly power guide us out of this fearful country.
01:08:13Behold, Sir King, the wronged Duke of Milan, Prospero.
01:08:19Whether thou be'st he or no,
01:08:21or some enchanted trifle to abuse me as late I have been, I not know.
01:08:25Thy pulse beats as a flesh and blood,
01:08:27but how should Prospero be living and be here?
01:08:30First noble friend, let me embrace thine age,
01:08:32whose honour cannot be measured or confined.
01:08:34Whether this be or be not, I'll not swear.
01:08:37You do yet taste some subtleties of the isle
01:08:39that'll not let you believe things certain.
01:08:41You are welcome friends all.
01:08:44But you, my grace of lords, were I so minded,
01:08:47I here could pluck his Highness's frown upon you,
01:08:49and justify you traitors.
01:08:51At this time I will tell no tale.
01:08:53The devil speaks in him.
01:08:55For you, most wicked, Sir,
01:08:57whom to call brother would even infect my mouth,
01:09:01I do forgive thy rankest faults, all of them,
01:09:05and require my dukedom of thee,
01:09:07which perforce I know thou must restore.
01:09:09If thou be'st, Prospero, give us particulars of thy preservation,
01:09:12how thou hast met us here,
01:09:14who three hours since were wrecked upon this shore,
01:09:17where I have lost.
01:09:19How sharp the point of this remembrance is!
01:09:22My dear son, Ferdinand,
01:09:26irreparable is the loss,
01:09:28and patience says it's past her cure.
01:09:30I rather think you have not sought her help.
01:09:33Whose soft grace I, for the light loss,
01:09:35have her sovereign aid, and rest myself content.
01:09:38To you, the light loss?
01:09:40As great to me as late, for I have lost my daughter.
01:09:44A daughter?
01:09:45Oh, heavens, that they were living both in Naples,
01:09:48the king and queen there.
01:09:52That they were, I wish myself were mudded
01:09:54in that oozy bed where my son lies.
01:09:57When did you lose your daughter?
01:09:59In this last tempest.
01:10:01But how soe'er you have been jostled from your senses,
01:10:04know for certain that I am Prospero,
01:10:06and that very duke that was thrust forth of Milan.
01:10:09That dukedom I resign, and do entreat thou pardon me my wrongs.
01:10:12You are welcome, sir. This sells my court.
01:10:14Here have I attendants few, and subjects none abroad.
01:10:17My dukedom, since you've given me again,
01:10:19I will requite you with as good a thing,
01:10:21at least bring forth a wonder to content ye as much as me.
01:10:25My dukedom, pray you, look in.
01:10:33Sweet lord, you play me false?
01:10:35No, my dearest love, I would not for the world.
01:10:38Yet for a score of kingdoms you should wrangle,
01:10:40and I would call it fair play.
01:10:44If this prove a vision of the island,
01:10:46one dear son shall I twice lose.
01:10:48Though the seas threaten, they are merciful.
01:10:50I have cursed them without cause.
01:10:53Now all the blessings of a glad father compass thee about.
01:10:57O wonder how many goodly creatures are there here,
01:11:01how beauteous mankind is.
01:11:03O brave new world that has such people in't.
01:11:08Tis new to thee.
01:11:10What is this maid with whom thou wast to play?
01:11:12Your elst acquaintance, can it be three hours?
01:11:15Is she the goddess that has severed us and brought us thus together?
01:11:18Sir, she is mortal.
01:11:20But by immortal providence she is mine.
01:11:23She is daughter to this famous duke of Milan,
01:11:25of whom I have received a second life,
01:11:27and second father this lady makes him to me.
01:11:30I am hers. Give me your hands.
01:11:33Was Milan thrust from Milan,
01:11:36that his issue should become kings of Naples?
01:11:38O rejoice beyond a common joy,
01:11:41and set it down with gold on lasting pillars.
01:11:44In one voyage did Ferdinand find a wife,
01:11:47where he himself was lost.
01:11:49Prospero his dukedom in a poor isle,
01:11:52and all of us ourselves when no man was his own.
01:11:56This is a strange amaze as airmen find.
01:11:59Sir, believe me, do not infest your mind
01:12:01with beating on the strangeness of this business.
01:12:04At piqued leisure I'll resolve you.
01:12:06There are yet missing of your company
01:12:08some few odd lads that you remember not.
01:12:12For all of you! For all of you!
01:12:20If these be true spies, which I wear in my head,
01:12:23years of duty sign.
01:12:25These be brave spirits indeed.
01:12:28How fine my master looks.
01:12:30I'm afraid he will chastise me.
01:12:32I shall be pinched to death.
01:12:34Is not this Stefano, my drunken butler?
01:12:37He is drunk now, old man.
01:12:39And Trinculo is reeling right.
01:12:41Where should they find this grand licker that has gilded him?
01:12:43How camest thou in this pickle?
01:12:45Oh, I have been in such a pickle since I saw you last
01:12:49that I fear me will never out of my bones.
01:12:53How now, Stefano!
01:12:54Oh, trust me not, I'm not Stefano, but a cramp.
01:12:57This is a strange thing as air I looked on.
01:13:00He is as disproportioned in his manners as in his shape.
01:13:04Go, send her to my cell. Take with you your companions.
01:13:07And as you look to have my pardon, trim it handsomely.
01:13:11Aye, that I will.
01:13:15And I'll be wise hereafter and seek for grace.
01:13:19What a thrice double ass was I to take this drunkard for a god
01:13:23and to worship this dull fool.
01:13:28Hence and bestow your luggage where you found it.
01:13:31Or stole it, rather.
01:13:33Sir, I invite your highness and your train to my poor cell
01:13:37where you shall take your rest for this one night.
01:13:39Which part of it I'll waste with such discourse
01:13:43as I not doubt shall make it go quick away,
01:13:45the story of my life
01:13:47and the particular accidents gone by since I came to this isle.
01:13:51And in the morn I'll bring you to your ship and so to Naples
01:13:54where it is my hope to see the nuptial of these our dear beloved solemn nights.
01:14:00And thence retire me to my Milan
01:14:03where every third thought shall be my grave.
01:14:06Please you draw near.
01:14:12My aerial chick.
01:14:20That is thy charge.
01:14:23Then to the elements be free and fear thou well.
01:14:31Our revels now are ended.
01:14:35These are actors as I foretold you were all spirits
01:14:40and are melted into air, into thin air.
01:14:44And like the baseless fabric of this vision
01:14:48the cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,
01:14:52the solemn temples, the great globe itself, yea,
01:14:57all which it inherits shall dissolve
01:15:00and like this insubstantial pageant faded
01:15:05leave not a rack behind.
01:15:10We are such stuff as dreams are made on
01:15:14and our little life is rounded with a sleep.
01:15:26THE END
01:15:56THE END
01:16:26THE END
