V Poznámce překladatele Martin Hilský píše: V čem tedy vlastně spočívá výjimečnost a originalita Shakespearových sonetů? Zdá se, že především v tom, že Shakespeare byl, na rozdíl od velké většiny ostatních autorů sonetů, především dramatický a divadelní básník.

„Neboj sa, dieťa moje. Počul som tvoje slová lásky a som šťastný za vás oboch, Ferdinand. Chcel som len zistiť, či je tvoja láska k mojej krásnej zlatej dcére Mirande skutočná.“ Prospero žije na podivnom ostrove s dcérou Mirandou.
