Tempest
[V, 1]

Ferdinand

2242

Sir, she is mortal;
But by immortal Providence she's mine:
I chose her when I could not ask my father
For his advice, nor thought I had one. She
Is daughter to this famous Duke of Milan,
Of whom so often I have heard renown,
But never saw before; of whom I have
Received a second life; and second father
This lady makes him to me.

Alonso

2251

I am hers:
But, O, how oddly will it sound that I
Must ask my child forgiveness!
