Prospero's Speech Lyrics

Cover art for Prospero's Speech lyrics by Loreena McKennitt

Complex enough, this is actually the final speech of an actor in Shakesperean times. ("The Tempest" in this case, where the magiciian Prospero is one of the main figures) Plays ended with the actors saying their thanks to the audience. So, as magical as it sounds, it's a rather mundane matter.

Doesn't change the fact, that it's a breathtaking piece, though. =)
