Referring closely, to Act III Scene III, relate the stern warning of Ariel to the "three men of sin". What impact does his warning have on the three sinners?
उत्तर
In Act III, Scene III of "The Tempest," Ariel delivers a stern warning to the "three men of sin" - Alonso, Sebastian, and Antonio. This warning has a profound impact on the three sinners, marking a crucial moment in the play's development. Positioned high above the stage, Prospero observes with satisfaction the consequences of his spells on those who conspired against him twelve years ago. After the shipwreck, the guilty ones, including Old Gonzalo, have been wandering in the enchanted island's pathless wilderness, searching for the missing Ferdinand.
The magical sequence takes the form of a masque of hospitality, resembling an episode from Virgil's Aeneid. Ariel, appearing as a harpy, explains the significance of the disrupted harmony, fellowship, and natural order symbolized by the ceremonial banquet. This disruption is attributed to the 'three men of sin,' and Ariel insists they must recognize the magnitude of their offenses. The injury to Prospero is portrayed as an affront to the entire scheme of things, making them unfit to live amongst men. They have been rejected and vomited up by the sea.
Ariel's warning leaves the sinners with only one hope - repentance and a change in their ways, marked by 'heart's sorrow' and the pursuit of a clear life. Prospero commends Ariel for the harpy performance and departs, leaving the sinners to grapple with the fearsome accusation. Alonso acknowledges his guilt, expressing it as monstrous. Sebastian and Antonio remain defiant, while Gonzalo, despite unclear understanding, appears to comprehend the gravity of the situation. The impact of Ariel's warning sets the stage for potential redemption and self-reflection among the 'three men of sin.'

But even as he approached the boy, Mr. Oliver sensed that something was wrong. The boy appeared to be crying. His head hung down, he held his face in his hands, and his body shook convulsively. It was a strange, soundless weeping, and Mr. Oliver felt distinctly uneasy.
Well, what’s the matter, he asked, his anger giving way to concern. What are you crying for? The boy would not answer or look up. His body continued to be wracked with silent sobbing.
Oh, come on, boy. You shouldn’t be out here at this hour. Tell me the trouble. Look up.

“Then take her to the poorhouse: she’ll have to go there,” answered the blacksmith’s wife, springing away, and leaving Joe behind.
For a little while the man stood with a puzzled air; then he turned back, and went into the hovel again. Maggie with painful effort, had raised herself to an upright position and was sitting on the bed, straining her eyes upon the door out of which all had just departed, A vague terror had come into her thin white face.
“O, Mr. Thompson!” she cried out, catching her suspended breath, “don’t leave me here all alone!” ,
Though rough in exterior, Joe Thompson, the wheelwright, had a heart, and it was very tender in some places. He liked children, and was pleased to have them come to his shop, where sleds and wagons were made or mended for the village lads without a draft on their hoarded sixpences.
“No, dear,” he answered, in a kind voice, going to the bed, and stooping down over the child, “You she’n’t be left here alone.” Then he wrapped her with the gentleness almost of a woman, in the clean bedclothes which some neighbor had brought; and, lifting her in his strong arms, bore her out into the air and across the field that lay between the hovel and his home.

Who said, ‘It’s a cruel thing to leave her so.’ Why did he say this?
Margot stood apart from these children who could never remember a time when there wasn’t rain and rain and rain. They were all nine years old, and if there had been a day, seven years ago, when the sun came out for an hour and showed its face to the stunned world, they could not recall. Sometimes, at night, she heard them stir, in remembrance, and she knew they were dreaming and remembering an old or a yellow crayon or a coin large enough to buy the world with. She knew they thought they remembered a warmness, like a blushing in the face, in the body, in the arms and legs and trembling hands. But then they always awoke to the tatting drum, the endless shaking down of clear bead necklaces upon the roof, the walk, the gardens, the forests, and their dreams were gone. All day yesterday they had read in class about the sun. About how like a lemon it was, and how hot. And they had written small stories or essays or poems about it:
I think the snn is a flower,
That blooms for just one hour.
