O, I have suffered With those that I saw suffer: a brave vessel, Who had, no doubt, some noble creature in her, Dash'd all to pieces. O, the cry did knock Against my very heart. Poor souls, they perish'd. Had I been any god of power, I would Have sunk the sea within the earth or ere It should the good ship so have swallow'd and The fraughting souls within her.

<u> B. That she is not totally under her father’s control</u>

Miranda, emotionally affected by all that was happening, seems to suspect that his father has "art", (magic or supernatural powers) and that he was the one who created the terrible storm that was doing great harms to the people and the ships, and she continues by asking him to put an end to it, which demonstrates Miranda's position toward his father, she does not talk out of full fear, submission or confusion, but of determination. She asks for a straightforward thing: "to allay the waters".
