THE VOICE Yet thou shalt fight!

CALIBAN [Springing forward above his cell.] What art thou? [From the mouth of the cell a flame-colored Figure strides forth and replies:]

THE FIGURE War: thy father’s Priest.—Caliban, remember Setebos!

CALIBAN Ha, Setebos! Com’st thou once more with priest-craft To lure me back to him?—Begone!

WAR Yet not Without me shalt thou win Miranda.

CALIBAN [Fiercely.] Go!

WAR [Returning within the cell, disappears as his voice dies away.] Remember War! Miranda shall be thine!

CALIBAN [Hoarsely.] Miranda—mine!

ARIEL [Comes running from the throne entrance.] Ho, pupil, now be merry! Great Prosper sleeps, and from his slumber sends thee A dream of fairy laughter.

CALIBAN [Darkly, amazed.] Laughter!
