Which quotations from the tempest most clearly show how shakespeare portrays prospero’s transformation from someone who wants revenge to someone who understands that certain powers over others are too strong to use?

(select all that apply.)

the tempest

(a) but this rough magic
i here abjure; and, when i have required
some heavenly music,—which even now i do,—
to work mine end upon their senses, that
this airy charm is for, i’ll break my staff,
bury it certain fathoms in the earth,
and deeper than did ever plummet sound
i’ll drown my book. …

(b) though with their high wrongs i am struck to th’ quick,
yet with my nobler reason ’gainst my fury
do i take part: the rarer action is
in virtue than in vengeance: they being penitent,
the sole drift of my purpose doth extend
not a frown further. go release them, ariel:
my charms i’ll break, their senses i’ll restore,
and they shall be themselves.

(c) and ’twixt the green sea and the azured vault
set roaring war: to the dread rattling thunder
have i given fire, and rifted jove’s stout oak
with his own bolt; the strong-based promontory
have i made shake, and by the spurs plucked up
the pine and cedar: graves at my command
have waked their sleepers, oped, and let ’em forth
by my so potent art.

(d) the hour’s now come;
the very minute bids thee ope thine ear;
obey, and be attentive. canst thou remember
a time before we came unto this cell?
i do not think thou canst, for then thou wast not
out three years old.

"if we never experience the chill of a dark winter, it is very unlikely that we will ever cherish the warmth of a bright summer’s day. nothing stimulates our appetite for the simple joys of life more than the starvation caused by sadness or desperation. in order to complete our amazing life journey successfully, it is vital that we turn each and every dark tear into a pearl of wisdom, and find the blessing in every curse." anthon st. maarten, divine living: the essential guide to your true destiny. what does this quote mean to you? this isn't for anything in particular, i just wanted to know. : )
