THE TEMPEST


Caliban.

When Prospero is destroyed.

Stephano.

That shall be by and by: I remember the story.

Trinculo.

The sound is going away; let ’s follow it, and after do our work.

Stephano.

Lead, monster; we ’ll follow. I would I could see this taborer; he lays it on.

Trinculo.

Wilt come? I ’ll follow, Stephano.

[Exeunt.


SCENE III.

Another part of the island.

Enter Alonso, Sebastian, Antonio, Gonzalo, Adrian,
Francisco
, and others.

Gonzalo.

By’r lakin, I can go no further, sir;
My old bones ache: here ’s a maze trod indeed
Through forth-rights and meanders! By your patience,
I needs must rest me.

Alonso.

I needs must rest me. Old lord, I cannot blame thee,
Who am myself attach’d with weariness,
To the dulling of my spirits: sit down, and rest.
Even here I will put off my hope and keep it
