Problem 3 - Entrance Test

What is the name of the sorcerer who imprisons Ariel at the start of The Tempest?

Correct: B

Before Prospero arrived on the island, the witch Sycorax (Caliban’s mother) imprisoned Ariel in a cloven pine for twelve years because the spirit refused to obey her evil commands. Prospero later freed Ariel and bound the spirit to his service.
