- ACT TWO THE TEMPEST SCENE TWO
Caliban. Do not torment me :— O !
Stephana. What's the matter? Have we devils here? Do
you put tricks upon's with salvages and men of Ind, ha?
I have not scaped drowning, to be afeard now of your
four legs ; for it hath been said, As proper a man as ever
went on four legs cannot make him give ground ; and
it shall be said so again, while Stephano breathes at
nostrils,
Caliban. The spirit torments me. — O!
Stephano. This is some monster of the isle with four legs, who
hath got, as I take it, an ague. Where the devil should he
learn our language? I will give him some relief, if it be
but for that. If I can recover him, and keep him tame,
and get to Naples with him, he's a present for any
emperor that ever trod on neat's-leather.
Caliban. Do not torment me, prithee ; I '11 bring my wood homefaster.
Stephano. He's in his fit now, and does not talk after the
wisest. He shall taste of my bottle: if he have never
drunk wine afore, it will go near to remove his fit If I
can recover him, and keep him tame, I will not take too
much for him ; he shall pay for him that hath him, and
that soundly.
Caliban. Thou dost me yet but little hurt ; thou wilt anon, I
know it by thy trembling: now Prosper works upon
thee.
Stephano. Come on your ways ; open your mouth ; here is
that which will give language to you, cat : open your
mouth ; this will shake your shaking, I can tell you, and
that soundly : you cannot tell who 's your friend : open
your chaps again.
Trinculo. 1 should know that voice : it should be — but he is
drowned ; and these are devils :— O defend me !
Stephano. Four legs and two voices,— a most delicate monster !
His forward voice, now, is to speak well of his friend ; his
backward voice is to utter foul speeches and to detract.
If all the wine in my bottle will recover him, I will help
his ague. Come :— Amen 1 I will pour some in thy other
mouth.
Trinculo. Stephano!
Stephano. Doth thy other mouth call me? Mercy, mercy!
D 49
