Prospero, the Duke of Milan, was a learned and studious man, who lived
among his books, leaving his dukedom to his brother Antonio, in whom he had
trust. But Antonio wanted to wear the duke’s crown himself. With the help of
Alonso, King of Naples, he managed to get into his hands the dukedom with all
its power and riches and they took Prospero to sea and forced him into a little
boat with no mast. In their cruelty they put his little daughter, Miranda into
the boat with him. But one courtiers Gonzalo was true to Prospero. He secretly
placed in the boat some fresh water, provisions and Prospero’s precious books.
The boat was cast on an island, and they landed in safety. This island was
under the spell and the spirit Ariel was still remained in prison. Prospero was a
great magician. When Miranda was grown up, she was so sweet and fair to
see. It chanced that Antonio and Alonso, with Sebastian, his brother, and
Ferdinand, his son was at sea together with old Gonzalo. Prospero, knowing
they were there, so he raised by his art a great storm, and Prince Ferdinand
leaped into the sea. But Ariel brought him safe ashore; and all the rest of the
crew was landed unhurt. While the tempest was raging, Prospero showed his
daughter and told her that it was filled with human beings like themselves.
She, in pity of their lives, then Prospero told her the story of his life. Ariel had
work for Prospero. Ariel led the spell-bound prince into the presence of
Prospero and Miranda. Prospero appeared before Antonio, Alonso and
Sebastian in his proper shape as the Duke of Milan. They repented, so he
forgave them. Alonso, lamented the loss of his heir. But Prospero drew back a
curtain and showed them Ferdinand and Miranda playing at chess. Great was
Alonso’s joy to greet his son again, and when he heard that the fair maid with
whom Ferdinand was playing was Prospero’s daughter, so all ended happily. FIND ALL COMMON NOUNS THANK YOU
