It was clear from the incidents of the story that people with good nature reaped
happiness in the end. And people with evil nature reaped nothing but suffering. As
a single example; Antonio, the 'false and
cunning brother, tried to kill his brother with his only child to seize the dukedom. He
was of an evil nature so he suffered on the desolate island and reaped nothing but
fear and tiredness. While Prospero, the kind hearted man, forgave his evil brother for
all his bad deeds. In the end, Prospero had a good harvest. He regained his
dukedom and his brother's love. And his only daughter would be the queen of
Naples.
The ones who sowed good reaped good and the ones who sowed evil reaped
nothing but evil.
