I can't believe that a fine, handsome and wealthy young man like me is out here carrying logs !
I wish I were back in Naples where I am the prince and don't gotta do all this dirty work.
However, I won't complain too much about this tedious and nasty work because I have a beautiful damsel to admire.

# data[].attributes.body
The damsel is way nicer than her father, and it is nice having her here comforting me while I slave away carrying all this log.

# data[].attributes.body
Ferdinand,
You need a BREAK !
If you sit down, I’ll carry your logs a while.
Please give me that. I’ll take it over to the pile.

# data[].attributes.body
No, No, No
As the gentleman that I am, I'd rather strain all my muscles and break my back than let you carry logs while I lay around doing nothing.

# data[].attributes.body
I am such a proud father and matchmaker.
These children (Miranda and Ferdinand) are in Love.
I can see it clearly now.

*smooth talking*
Hey ma,
What's your name?
I would love to use it in my early morning prayers when I'm thanking God for all the beautiful things I've seen in life.

# data[].attributes.body
Oohhh.... this young man thinks I will tell him my name so easily

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
Oh NO,
I've disobeyed my father.
Am i going to be in trouble?
I hope not.

Welp .

What a beautiful name, Miranda.
It means " admired," and I indeed admire YOU.
I have seen so many beautiful women but there was always something about their personalities that turned me off but You Miranda, are Perfect for me.
You have no rivals, and you have the best qualities I have ever seen in a woman. You are patient, kind, understanding, caring, beautiful..... and the list goes on and on.

# data[].attributes.body
I’ve never met any men besides you and my father and I know that I have no idea what other men look like but I swear, that I would never want any companion in the world but you.
I cannot even imagine loving anyone else Ferdinand, You are my one true love.

# data[].attributes.body
I’m a prince by birth, Miranda and I might even be a King now.
Hopefully not, because I pray that my father is still out there alive somewhere.
Normally, I would not be carrying these logs but let me tell you something, The second I saw you. My heart rushed to serve you and be your slave.

# data[].attributes.body
Wow, he is a prince by birth and here he is carrying logs. Such a humble young man and I've got to secure the BAG.
Wait what !
Did he just say that his heart skipped a beat when he laid his eyes on me?
He must really have feelings for me.
I know this is a little too fast but I must pop the "love" question because I need to know where his head is at.

# data[].attributes.body
Oh Miranda,
I love you more than anything else in the world.
I love you,
I value you
I honor you

# data[].attributes.body
Why is she crying? Did I do something wrong? Did I mess this up already!

# data[].attributes.body
Why am I crying like a fool?
Oh I am so so happy !
I’m crying at how unworthy I am to be able to give you all this love and affection.
The more I try to hide how I feel for you, the stronger it gets and I just want to be able to love you openly Ferdinand.
I'll be your wife if you will be my husband and if not, the love I have for you is so strong I would rather die a virgin than marry somebody else.
Even if you reject me, I promise to always be here for you and serve you.

# data[].attributes.body
How could I not want to be your husband Miranda!
You'll be my wife and I will serve you forever!

# data[].attributes.body
Will you be my husband Ferdinand !
I know I haven't met many men except from my father and Caliban, but you are a fineee young man with an amazing personality and I cannot imagine spending my life with anyone else but YOU.

# data[].attributes.body
Do you see that sleek shot?
Ladies, shoot your shot sometimes.
You never know, you might just score like ME.

# data[].attributes.body
YES
YES
YES
I will be your husband !
* In head* Oh now I can flex on all my bro's with this fine Queen of mines.

It's time I stop spying and head back to my books since I have a lot of business to take care of by dinner.

This is a beautiful song dedicated to my lovely wife Miranda

In this scene, we see that Ferdinand takes over Caliban's job and carries wood for Prospero which isn't the ideal duty for a prince and soon to be king like him. The work is much bearable for Ferdinand because  he thinks of his labor as servitude to the woman he loves (Miranda). Throughout this scene, we can see that Ferdinand is smitten by love and Miranda's beauty. Miranda being a kind soul that she is, proposes that Ferdinand should take a break from working so hard while she helps him carry the wood. Ferdinand being such a gentleman blatantly refuses but rests for a while talking with Miranda and even gets to know her name in the process.

The scene also shows us Prospero's admiration of his matchmaking skills in regards to the couple's love life. Ferdinand assures Miranda that he is the prince of Naples and probably a king now, though he prays his father is not dead. We see that Miranda is not after material things or fame; rather, she seems unconcerned with Ferdinand’s Royal title and asks for his unconditional love.  Ferdinand replies enthusiastically saying that he loves her with his whole heart and promises to cherish her forever. His well-crafted response makes Miranda propose marriage and Ferdinand excitedly accepts the offer.

In the sidelines, we see Prospero filled with joy knowing his matchmaking plans have worked. He then hurries to his book of magic to prepare the remaining business which involves re-uniting everyone on the ship.

This scene portrays different types of servitude. Ferdinand is in service to Prospero, but in an attempt to make carrying logs more bearable he sees Miranda as his taskmaster. The word “slavery” is used often in this scene. However, Caliban is repeatedly called a slave to both Prospero and his anger. We see that on the other hand, Ferdinand is gladly willing to be a slave to love.

At the end of the scene, Miranda takes up the theme of servitude when she proposes to Ferdinand and vows to die his maid, devoted to him even if he refuses to marry her.  This is the only scene where Ferdinand and Miranda actually interact in a one-on-one manner, and this is in an attempt to portray Miranda as having a mind of her own and not just her father's puppet. It also portrays her naivety to be in love with the first man from the actual world that she sees.

Shakespeare shows Ferdinand in a kind of servitude where he must physically humble himself which contrasts his Royalty status. There is also another kind of servitude talked about in this scene where both Miranda and Ferdinand are willing to give themselves wholly to each other.  Prospero remaining behind the scenes without interfering helps the audience trust this meeting between the lovers more than their first meeting in Act I, scene ii. However, Prospero's presence might also suggest that he has some control over Miranda's actions and speech.

The love between Miranda and Ferdinand is also significant because they are both heir's to their father's thrones ( Alonso and Prospero) and this is in a bid of reconciliation between their fathers. Their union also suggests that Milan and Naples will be allies in the nearest future and this also represents a "fresh start" for both characters and their families.
