- ACT FOUR THE TEMPEST SCENE ONE
[Eater Juno.]
Juno. How aoes my bounteous sister? Go with me
To bless this tv/ain, that they may prosperous be,
And honour'd in their issue. [They sing.
Juno. Honour, riches, marriage-blessing,
Long continuance, and increasing.
Hourly joys be still upon you 1
Juno sings her blessings on you.
Ceres. Earth's increase, foison plenty,
Barns and garners never empty ;
Vines with clustering bunches growing ;
Plants with goodly burthen bowing ;
Spring come to you at the farthest
In the very end of harvest !
Scarcity and v/ant shall shun you;
Ceres' blessing so is on you.
Ferdinand. This is a most majestic vision, and
Harmonious charmingly. May I be bold
To think these spirits?
Prospero. Spirits, which by mine art
I have from their confines call'd to enact
My present fancies.
Ferdinand. Let me live here ever;
So rare a wonder'd father and a wise
Makes this place Paradise.
[Juno and Ceres wftisper, and send
Iris on employment.
Prospero. Sv/eet, now, silence !
Juno and Ceres whisper seriously;
There 's something else to do : hush, and be mute.
Or else our spell is marr'd.
Iris. You nymphs, call'd Naiads, of the windring brooks.
With your sedged crowns and ever-harmless looks.
Leave your crisp channels, and on this green land
Answer your summons ; Juno does command :
Come, temperate nymphs, and help to celebrate
A contract of true love ; be not too late.
