Answer and Explanation:

Caliban portrays himself as an ugly and unclean being. This caused him to reflect on how big, ugly, swollen and dirty his feet are. This is completely contrasting with the way he sees Miranda, as he sees her in a delicate and beautiful way.

This reflects how individuals dominated by imperialist nations were encouraged to see themselves and their cultures as something inferior, ugly, dull and dirty compared to colonial and dominant nations.
