ire with me: The King's son, Ferdinand, With hair up-staring,[380-63]--then like reeds, not hair,-- Was the first man that leap'd; cried, _Hell is empty, And all the devils are here_. _Pros._ Why, that's my spirit! But was not this nigh shore? _Ari._ Close by, my master. _Pros._ But are they, Ariel, safe? _Ari._ Not a hair perish'd; On their unstaining[381-64] garments not a blemish, But fresher than before: and, as thou badest me, In troops I have dispersed them 'bout the isle. The King's son have I landed by himself; Whom I left cooling of the air with sighs In an odd angle[381-65] of the isle, and sitting, His arms in this sad knot.[381-66] _Pros._ Of the King's ship The mariners, say, how hast thou disposed, And all the rest o' the fleet?[381-67] _Ari._ Safely in harbour Is the King's ship; in the deep nook, where once Thou call'dst me up at midnight to fetch dew From the still-vex'd Bermoothes,[381-68] there she's hid: The mariners all under hatches stow'd; Who, with a charm join'd to their suffer'd labour, I've left asleep:[381-69] and, for the rest o' the fleet Which I dispersed, they all have met again, And are upon the Mediterranean flote,[382-70] Bound sadly home for Naples; Supposing that they saw the King's ship wreck'd, And his great person perish. _Pros._ Ariel, thy charge Exactly is performed: but there's more work. What is the time o' the day? _Ari._ Past the mid season, At least two glasses.[382-71] _Pros._ The time 'twixt six and now Must by us both be spent most preciously. _Ari._ Is there more toil? Since thou dost give me pains, Let me remember[382-72] thee what thou hast promised, Which is not yet perform'd[382-73] me. _Pros._ How now! moody? What is't thou canst demand? _Ari._ My liberty. _Pros._ Before the time be out? no more![382-74] _Ari._ I pr'ythee, Remember I have done thee worthy service; Told thee no lies, made no mistakings, served Without or grudge or grumblings: thou didst promise To bate me a full year.[382-75
