Prince Ferdinand:
Most sure, the goddess on whom these airs attend. Vouchsafe my prayer may know if you remain upon this island, 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:

Yes, faith, and all his lords. Prospera:
At first sight they have changed eyes. O delicate Ariel, I will set thee free for this. A word, good sir. I fear you have done yourself some wrong. A word! Miranda:

They are both in either's powers, but this swift business I must uneasy make, lest too light winning make the prize light
