O, it is monstrous, monstrous! [95]
               Methought the billows spoke, and told me of it;
               The winds did sing it to me; and the thunder,
               That deep and dreadful organ-pipe, pronounc’d

               The name of Prosper: it did bass my trespass.
               Therefor my son i’ th’ ooze is bedded; and [100]
               I’ll seek him deeper than e’er plummet sounded,
               And with him there lie mudded.

                                                                                                             Exit.



              SEBASTIAN
                               But one fiend at a time,
               I’ll fight their legions o’er.



              ANTONIO
                               I’ll be thy second.
                                                                       Exeunt [Sebastian and Antonio].



              GONZALO
               All three of them are desperate: their great guilt,

               Like poison given to work a great time after, [105]
               Now ’gins to bite the spirits. I do beseech you,
               That are of suppler joints, follow them swiftly,

               And hinder them from what this ecstasy
               May now provoke them to.



              ADRIAN
                               Follow, I pray you.
                                                                                               Exeunt omnes.
