Reading Passage from The Tempest

CALIBAN: Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises, / Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not. Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments / Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices / That, if I then had waked after long sleep, / Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming, / The clouds methought would open and show riches / Ready to drop upon me: that, when I waked, / I cried to dream again. I long / To hear the story of your life, which must / Take the ear strangely. You cannot tell me / What I am, but I know I am content / To learn my fate in your words. But, oh, / How strange a thing it is that a storm / Can turn the calmest sea to rage and chaos / Or bring forth beauty in the midst of destruction. The air's delicate whispers and sudden gusts remind us that nature itself is alive, holding secrets of magic that humans can barely comprehend. The sorcerer's power and the natural world's mysteries intertwine deeply here, illustrating the supernatural forces that shape the island.
