So, so, so?

I've always thought that Gen's "So, so, so" was an idiosyncrasy invented by MWT.
I just came across the exact phrase in Act 5, Scene 1 of The Tempest. Does anyone know if this series of so's is or was common? I'd never heard or read it before until QT. Or do you think she's quoting Prospero?
