              1. 'deity in the bosom' suggests the idea of an omnipotent god - he must be obeyed
                1. The melting of the consciences suggests that they have no impact, like an ice dagger that has melted

                            1. By their actions they set in motion the play. Without the act of usurpation, there is no play.
                              1. The motif of usurpation is seen again in the play: Sebastian and Antonio plot against Alonso; Caliban plots against Prospero.
                              2. '...this thing of darkness I acknowledge mine'
                                1. 'He has taken all the necessary archetypes and integrated them within himself. We have seen the unconscious played out as fantasy and then a return to reality.'(Barry Beck)
                                  1. Prospero is acknowledging the dark side of his personality (Jungian interpretation)
