The Tempest. If of Life you keepe a care, Shake off slumber and beware. Awake, awake. Ant. Then let vs both be sodaine. Gon.
[980]
Now, good Angels preserue the King.
Alo. Why how now hoa; awake? why are you drawn? Wherefore this ghastly looking? Gon. What's the matter? Seb. Whiles we stood here securing your repose,
[985]
(Euen now) we heard a hollow burst of bellowing Like Buls, or rather Lyons, did't not wake you? It strooke mine eare most terribly.
Alo. I heard nothing. Ant. O, 'twas a din to fright a Monsters eare;
[990]
To make an earthquake: sure it was the roare Of a whole heard of Lyons.
Alo. Heard you this Gonzalo? Gon. Vpon mine honour, Sir, I heard a humming, (And that a strange one too) which did awake me:
[995]
I shak'd you Sir, and cride: as mine eyes opend, I saw their weapons drawne: there was a noyse, That's verily: 'tis best we stand vpon our guard; Or that we quit this place: let's draw our weapons.
Alo. Lead off this ground & let's make further search
[1000]
For my poore sonne.
Gon. Heauens keepe him from these Beasts: For he is sure i'th Island Alo. Lead away. Ariell. Prospero my Lord, shall know what I haue (done.
[1005]
So (King) goe safely on to seeke thy Son.
Exeunt.
Scœna Secunda. [Act 2, Scene 2] Enter Caliban, with a burthen of Wood, (a noyse of Thunder heard.) Cal. All the infections that the Sunne suckes vp From Bogs, Fens, flats, on Prosper fall, and make him By ynch‑meale a disease: his Spirits heare me, And yet I needes must curse. But they'll nor pinch,
[1010]
Fright me with Vrchyn‑shewes, pitch me i'th mire, Nor lead me like a fire‑brand, in the darke Out of my way, vnlesse he bid'em; but For euery trifle, are they set vpon me, Sometime like Apes, that moe and chatter at me,
[1015]
And after bite me: then like Hedg‑hogs, which Lye tumbling in my bare‑foote way, and mount Their pricks at my foot‑fall: sometime am I All wound with Adders, who with clouen tongues Doe hisse me into madnesse: Lo, now Lo, Enter Trinculo.
[1020]
Here comes a Spirit of his, and to torment me For bringing wood in slowly: I'le fall flat, Perchance he will not minde me.
Tri.

Here's neither bush, nor shrub to beare off any

weather at all: and another Storme brewing, I heare it

[1025]

sing ith' winde: yond same blacke cloud, yond huge

one, lookes like a foule bumbard that would shed his

licquor: if it should thunder, as it did before, I know

not where to hide my head: yond same cloud cannot

choose but fall by paile‑fuls. What haue we here, a man,

or a fish? dead or aliue? a fish, hee smels like a fish: a

very ancient and fish‑like smell: a kinde of, not of the

now (as once I was) and had but this fish painted; not

a holiday‑foole there but would giue a peece of siluer:

there, would this Monster, make a man: any strange

beast there, makes a man: when they will not giue a

a dead Indian: Leg'd like a man; and his Finnes like

Armes: warme o'my troth: I doe now let loose my o­

der, that hath lately suffered by a Thunderbolt: Alas,

the storme is come againe: my best way is to creepe vn­

Misery acquaints a man with strange bedfel­

Ste.

This is some Monster of the Isle, with foure legs;

who hath got (as I take it) an Ague: where the diuell

should he learne our language? I will giue him some re­

drunke wine afore, it will goe neere to remoue his Fit:

if I can recouer him, and keepe him tame, I will not take

too much for him; hee shall pay for him that hath him,

and that soundly.

Thou do'st me yet but little hurt; thou wilt a­

vpon thee.

Ste.

Come on your wayes: open your mouth: here

Ste.

Foure legges and two voyces; a most delicate

Monster: his forward voyce now is to speake well of

his friend; his backward voice, is to vtter foule speeches,

and to detract: if all the wine in my bottle will recouer

[1100]

him, I will helpe his Ague: Come: Amen, I will

poure some in thy other mouth.

Tri.

Stephano.

Ste.

Doth thy other mouth call me? Mercy, mercy:

This is a diuell, and no Monster: I will leaue him, I

[1105]

haue no long Spoone.

Tri.

Stephano: if thou beest Stephano, touch me, and

speake to me: for I am Trinculo; be not afeard, thy

good friend Trinculo.

Ste.

If thou bee'st Trinculo: come forth: I'le pull

[1110]

thee by the lesser legges: if any be o' Trinculo's legges,

these are they: Thou art very Trinculo indeede: how

cam'st thou to be the siege of this Moone‑calfe? Can

he vent Trinculo's?

Tri.

I tooke him to be kil'd with a thunder‑strok; but

[1115]

art thou not dround Stephano: I hope now thou art

not dround: Is the Storme ouer‑blowne? I hid mee

vnder the dead Moone‑Calfes Gaberdine, for feare of

the Storme: And art thou liuing Stephano? O Stephano,

two Neapolitanes scap'd?

Ste.
[1120]

'Prethee doe not turne me about, my stomacke

is not constant.

Cal.

These be fine things, and if they be not sprights:

that's a braue God, and beares Celestiall liquor: I will

kneele to him.

Ste.
[1125]

How did'st thou scape?

How cam'st thou hither?

Sweare by this Bottle how thou cam' st hither: I escap'd

vpon a But of Sacke, which the Saylors heaued o're‑

boord, by this Bottle which I made of the barke of

[1130]

a Tree, with mine owne hands, since I was cast a'shore.

Cal.

I'le sweare vpon that Bottle, to be thy true sub­

iect, for the liquor is not earthly.

St. Heere: sweare then how thou escap'dst Tri.

Swom ashore (man) like a Ducke: I can swim

[1135]

like a Ducke I'le be sworne.

Ste.

Here, kisse the Booke.

Though thou canst swim like a Ducke, thou art made

like a Goose.

Tri.

O Stephano, ha'st any more of this?

Ste.
[1140]

The whole But (man) my Cellar is in a rocke

by th' sea‑side, where my Wine is hid:

How now Moone‑Calfe, how do's thine Ague?

Cal.

Ha'st thou not dropt from heauen?

Ste.

Out o'th Moone I doe assure thee. I was

[1145]

the Man ith' Moone, when time was.

Cal.

I haue seene thee in her: and I doe adore thee:

My Mistris shew'd me thee, and thy Dog, and thy Bush.

Ste.

Come, sweare to that: kisse the Booke: I will

furnish it anon with new Contents: Sweare.

Tri.
[1150]
By this good light, this is a very shallow Mon­ ster: I afeard of him? a very weake Monster: The Man ith' Moone? A most poore creadulous Monster: Well drawne Monster, in good sooth.
Cal.

Ile shew thee euery fertill ynch 'oth Island: and

[1155]

I will kisse thy foote: I prethee be my god.

Tri.

By this light, a most perfidious, and drunken

Monster, when's god's a sleepe he'll rob his Bottle.

Cal. Ile kisse thy foot, Ile sweare my selfe thy Subiect Ste. Come on then: downe and sweare. Tri.
[1160]

I shall laugh my selfe to death at this puppi‑hea­

ded Monster: a most scuruie Monster: I could finde in

my heart to beate him.

Ste. Come, kisse. Tri. But that the poore Monster's in drinke:
[1165]
An abhominable Monster.
Cal. I'le shew thee the best Springs: I'le plucke thee Berries: I'le fish for thee; and get thee wood enough. A plague vpon the Tyrant that I serue; I'le beare him no more Stickes, but follow thee, thou wondrous man. Tri.
[1170]

A most rediculous Monster, to make a wonder of

a poore drunkard.

Cal.

I'prethee let me bring thee where Crabs grow;

and I with my long nayles will digge thee pig‑nuts;

show thee a Iayes nest, and instruct thee how to snare

[1175]

the nimble Marmazet: I'le bring thee to clustring

Philbirts, and sometimes I'le get thee young Scamels

from the Rocke: Wilt thou goe with me?

Ste.

I pre'thee now lead the way without any more

talking. Trinculo, the King, and all our company else

[1180]

being dround, wee will inherit here: Here; beare my

Bottle: Fellow Trinculo; we'll fill him by and by a­

gaine.

Caliban Sings drunkenly. Farewell Master; farewell, farewell. Tri. A howling Monster: a drunken Monster. Cal.
[1185]
No more dams I'le make for fish, Nor fetch in firing, at requiring, Nor scrape trenchering, nor wash dish, Ban' ban' Cacalyban Has a new Master, get a new Man.
[1190]
Freedome, high‑day, high‑day freedome, freedome high‑ day, freedome.
Ste. O braue Monster; lead the way. Exeunt.
