The Tempest, V. i

Must rectify our knowledge.

Pro. Sir, my liege,
Do not infest your mind with beating on
The strangeness of this business: at pick'd leisure
Which shall be shortly, single I'll resolve you,— 248
Which to you shall seem probable,—of every
These happen'd accidents; till when, be cheerful,
And think of each thing well.—
[Aside to Ari.] Come hither, spirit;
Set Caliban and his companions free; 252
Untie the spell. [Exit Ari.] How fares my gracious sir?
There are yet missing of your company
Some few odd lads that you remember not.

Enter Ariel, driving in Caliban, Stephano, and Trinculo, in their stolen apparel.

Ste. Every man shift for all the rest, and let
no man take care for himself, for all is but
fortune.—Coragio! bully-monster, Coragio!

Trin. If these be true spies which I wear in
my head, here's a goodly sight. 260

Cal. O Setebos! these be brave spirits, indeed.
How fine my master is! I am afraid
He will chastise me.

Seb. Ha, ha!
What things are these, my lord Antonio? 264
Will money buy them?

Ant. Very like; one of them
Is a plain fish, and, no doubt, marketable.

Pro. Mark but the badges of these men, my lords,
Then say, if they be true—This mis-shapen knave,— 268

246 infest: vex
247 pick'd: chosen
248 resolve: explain to
258 Coragio: courage
267 badges; cf. n.
