PROSPERO. No harm. I have done nothing but in care of thee, Of thee, my dear one, thee, my daughter, who Art ignorant of what thou art, nought knowing Of whence I am: nor that I am more better Than Prospero, master of a full poor cell, And thy no greater father.

Why can't this be in dutch? It's a nice story, but i can't really follow it, because it isn't my language. THE story himself is nice, i've got to say that. I hope there will ever be a dutch version. I've seen musicals of this story, so i know this is a good one!
