- ACT TWO THE TEMPEST scene one
This ancient morsel, this Sir Prudence, who
Should not upbraid our course. For all the rest.
They '11 take suggestion as a cat laps milk ;
They'll tell the clock to any business that
We say befits the hour.
Sebastian. Thy case, dear friend.
Shall be my precedent; as thou gott'st Milan,
I'll come by Naples. Draw thy sword: one stroke
Shall free thee from the tribute which thou payest ;
And I the king shall love thee.
Aatonio. Draw together;
And when I rear my hand, do you the like,
To fall it on Gonzalo.
Sebastian. O, but one word. [They talk apart.
[Re-enter Ariel, Invisible.]
Ariel. My master through his art foresees the danger
That you, his friend, are in ; and sends me forth, —
For else his project dies,— to keep them living.
[Sings in Gonzalo' s ear.While you here do snoring lie,
Open-eyed conspiracy
His time doth take.
If of life you keep a care.
Shake off slumber and beware :
Awake, awake 1
Antonio. Then let us both be sudden.
Gonzalo. Now, good angels
Preserve the king! [They wake.
Alonzo. Why, how now? ho, awake !— Why are you drawn?
Wherefore this ghastly looking ?
Gonzalo. What's the matter?
Sebastian. Whiles we stood here securing your repose,
Even now, we heard a hollow burst of bellowing
Like bulls, or rather lions : did 't not wake you ?
It struck mine ear most terribly.
Alonso. I heard nothing.
Antonio. O, 'twas a din to fright a monster's ear.
To make an earthquake ! sure, it was the roar
Of a whole herd of lions.
