What determines a person’s independence?

did you ever get an answer? i'm on the same question : (

caliban is prospero's slave in the shakespear's play "the tempest"

the answer can be "credo" it means to believe = the word credo means "an official statement of beliefs"

the answer would be: it explains that at least one son must join the church

the expression ''as the tithe of his sons'' indicates how his father intended for at least one of his sons to serve the church. this phrase demonstrates that his father offered him as a last resort since none of his brothers chose to serve the church.

hope this answer you: )!
