Prospero
Quote 37
PROSPERO
You do yet taste
Some subtleties o' th' isle, that will not let you
Believe things certain. (5.1.139-141)
Prospero is playing false here—he knows it is his magic, and not the island, that plays with others' views of reality. Or does Prospero really believe that all his magic is helped by the magic inherent in the island?
