GONZALO: [To Alonso] O look, sir, look, here is more of us!
I prophesied if a gallows were on land
This fellow could not drown. [To Boatswain] Now, blasphemy,
That swear’st grace o’erboard, not an oath on the shore?
Hast thou no mouth by land? What is the news?
– William Shakespeare
The Tempest, Act 5, Scene 1. Gonzalo cries out, as the ship’s Master and Boatswain enter, accompanied by Ariel. He reminds everyone that he had prophesied the Boatswain could not drown and he asks him what news does he have.
