William Shakespeare

“ Dew-lapp’d like bulls, whose throats had hanging at ’em
Wallets of flesh? or that there were such men
Whose heads stood in their breasts? which now we find
Each putter-out of five for one will bring us
Good warrant of.
Alonso.
Good warrant of. ‍I will stand to and feed,
Although my last: no matter, since I feel
The best is past. Brother, my lord the duke,
Stand to and do as we.
Thunder and lightning. Enter Ariel, like a harpy; claps his wings upon the table; and, with a quaint device, the banquet vanishes. ”

“ As you like this, give me the lie another time.
Trinculo.
I did not give the lie. Out o’ your wits and hearing too? A pox o’ your bottle! this can sack and drinking do. A murrain on your monster, and the devil take your fingers! ”

“ Alonso, Sebastian, etc., draw their swords.
Their proper selves. ‍You fools! I and my fellows
Are ministers of Fate: the elements,
Of whom your swords are temper’d, may as well
Wound the loud winds, or with bemock’d-at stabs
Kill the still-closing waters, as diminish
One dowle that ’s in my plume: my fellow-ministers
Are like invulnerable. If you could hurt,
Your swords are now too massy for your strengths
And will not be uplifted. ”

“ That hath to instrument this lower world
And what is in ’t, the never-surfeited sea
Hath caused to belch up you; and on this island
Where man doth not inhabit; you ’mongst men
Being most unfit to live. ”

“ Servant-monster, drink to me.
Trinculo.
Servant-monster! the folly of this island! They say there ’s but five upon this isle: we are three of them; if th’ other two be brained like us, the state totters.
Stephano.
Drink, servant-monster, when I bid thee: thy eyes are almost set in thy head.
Trinculo.
Where should they be set else? he were a brave monster indeed, if they were set in his tail.

Stephano.
My man-monster hath drown’d his tongue in sack: for my part, the sea cannot drown me ”
