THE TEMPEST
With grief that ’s beauty’s canker, thou mightst call him
A goodly person: he hath lost his fellows
And strays about to find ’em.
A goodly person: he hath lost his fellows
And strays about to find ’em.
Miranda.
And strays about to find ’em. I might call him
A thing divine, for nothing natural
I ever saw so noble.

Prospero.
I ever saw so noble. [Aside.] It goes on, I see,
As my soul prompts it, Spirit, fine spirit! I'll free thee
Within two days for this.
As my soul prompts it, Spirit, fine spirit! I'll free thee
Within two days for this.
Ferdinand.
Within two days for this. Most sure, the goddess
On whom these airs attend! Vouchsafe my prayer
May know if you remain upon this island;
And that you will some good instruction give
How I may bear me here: my prime request,
Which I do last pronounce, is, O you wonder!
If you be maid or no?
On whom these airs attend! Vouchsafe my prayer
May know if you remain upon this island;
And that you will some good instruction give
How I may bear me here: my prime request,
Which I do last pronounce, is, O you wonder!
If you be maid or no?
Miranda.
If you be maid or no? No wonder, sir;
But certainly a maid.
But certainly a maid.
Ferdinand.
But certainly a maid. My language! heavens!
I am the best of them that speak this speech,
Were I but where ’tis spoken.
I am the best of them that speak this speech,
Were I but where ’tis spoken.
Prospero.
Were I but where ’tis spoken. How? the best?
What wert thou, if the King of Naples heard thee?
