TRINCULO
Do, do. We steal by line and level, an ’t like your
grace.
|
TRINCULO
Go ahead, take it. We’re stealing things the right way
here.
|
|
|
STEPHANO
I thank thee for that jest. Here’s a garment for
’t. Wit shall
not go unrewarded while I am king of this
country. “Steal
by line and level” is an
excellent pass of pate. There’s
another garment for
’t.
|
STEPHANO
Thank you for that joke. Here, I’ll give you some
clothes to show my gratitude. As king of this country I like to
reward wit when I hear it. “Stealing things the right
way” is a great line. Here’s another jacket to
say thanks.

TRINCULO
Monster, come, put some lime upon your fingers, and away
with the rest.
|
TRINCULO
Come here, monster, put some glue on your fingers, and carry away
the rest of these clothes for us.

CALIBAN
I will have none on ’t. We shall lose our time,
And all be turned to barnacles or to apes
With foreheads villainous low.
|
CALIBAN
I won’t have any of this. We’re wasting our
time. We’ll miss our chance and be turned into geese or
apes with low foreheads.
|
|
STEPHANO
Monster, lay to your fingers. Help to bear this away where
my
hogshead of wine is, or I’ll turn you out of my kingdom.
Go to, carry this.
|
STEPHANO
Monster, use your fingers. Help us carry these clothes to where my
barrel of wine is hidden, or I’ll kick you out of my
kingdom. Go on, take them.
|
|
|
TRINCULO
And this.
|
TRINCULO
Take these too.
|
|
|
STEPHANO
Ay, and this.
|
STEPHANO
Yes, and these.

A noise of hunters heard Enter divers spirits, in shape
of dogs and hounds, hunting them about, PROSPERO and
ARIEL setting them on |
A noise of hunters is heard. Various spirits enter
disguised as dogs and hounds, chasing STEPHANO,
TRINCULO, and CALIBAN around.
PROSPERO and ARIEL follow them,
urging the dogs on. |
|
|
PROSPERO
Hey, Mountain, hey!
|
PROSPERO
Hey, Mountain, hey!
|
|
|
ARIEL
Silver. There it
goes, Silver!
|
ARIEL
Silver. There they go, Silver!
