1.

The characters are all quite distressed, though the boatswain appears
to be the most terrified, ordering his men in a panicked state. Gonzalo
appear to be quite loyal to his King, suggesting the crew go and pray with
the King/ For our case is as theirs. On the contrary, Sebastien is willing to
part with the KIng, responding lets take leave of him to Antonios
comment of lets sink with the King.
2. Miranda is Prosperos daughter. She is extremely distressed at the sight
of the men suffering as the tempest destroys their ship, claiming that if
she be any god power, she would have sunk the sea within the earthor
ere it should the good ship so have swallowed. As such, the metaphor
present underscores her emotional sensibility and overall anguish at the
scene she has witnessed.
3. Prospero is a former King, whose position was usurped by his brother
and who found the island as refuge. He knows that the men are safe
because he instructed Ariel, the spirit who caused the havoc, to ensure
that not a hair perished
4. Prospero and Miranda came to be on the island because though the
King of Naples and Prosperos brother conspired to extirpate Prospero
and give the dukedom to his brother, the people of Milan had so dear a
love that instead of murdering them, they hurried up aboard a barque/
Bore us some leagues to sea and by providence divinecame ashore
5. Ariel is a spirit who used to be under Sycoraxs command, until he was
too earthy to act our her earthy and abhorred commands until Prospero
heard thee [Ariel] groans and let thee out. Hence, Ariel should do what
Prospero tells him because he relived him from years of torture and agony.
6. Sycorax is a witch who once controlled the island. Prospero feels strong
dislike towards her, as conveyed in his characterisation of her as the foul
witch, who with age and envy/ Was grown into a hoop. Both Prospero and
Sycorax were banished from their rule, and in both cases, they would not
be executed. They were also both left on the island with their child,
whether intentionally or by divine providence, and both wield(ed) control
of spirits.
7. Caliban is Sycoraxs son, which she left on the island after her death.
Caliban feels resentment towards Prospero, as clearly shown by his
revolted tone in here you sty me/ In this hard rock, while you do keep
away from me/ The rest of the island. He also feels that the island be
mine by Sycorax my mother/ Which thou takst from me, the aggressive
tone highlighting his sense of injustice in Prospero controlling the island.
8. Prospero began to treat Caliban as a slave when he didst seek to
violate/ The honour of my child.

9. Miranda taught Caliban how to speak, as evident in how she took pains
to make thee speak, taught thee each hour/ One thing or other. However,
he chooses to curse because he feels a great deal of resentment towards
Miranda and Prospero because they keep him in a cave, concealed from
the rest of the island. He also curses Prospero because the latter, in his
opinion, has stolen the island which should be his by birthright and
consequently enslaved him.
10. Why does Miranda think that Ferdinand might be a spirit?
Miranda believed that Ferdinand was a spirit because it carries a brave
forma thing divine, nothing natural she had ever saw so noble.
