Presenting me a schedule� �I will read it。 How much unlike art thou to
Portia� �How much unlike my hopes and my deservings� �'Who chooseth me
shall have as much as he deserves。' Did I deserve no more than a fool's
head�拭�Is that my prize�拭�Are my deserts no better�拭�PORTIA。 To offend and
judge are distinct offices And of opposed natures。 ARRAGON。 What is

Take what wife you will to bed�察�I will ever be your head。 So be gone�察�you

Still more fool I shall appear By the time I linger here。 With one

THE MERCHANT OF VENICE
SCENE I。 Venice。 A street
Enter SOLANIO and SALERIO
SOLANIO。 Now�察�what news on the Rialto�拭�SALERIO。 Why�察 �yet it
lives there uncheck'd that Antonio hath a ship of rich lading wreck'd on the
narrow seas�察�the Goodwins I think they call the place�察�a very dangerous
flat and fatal�察�where the carcases of many a tall ship lie buried�察�as they say�察�
if my gossip Report be an honest woman of her word。 SOLANIO。 I would
she were as lying a gossip in that as ever knapp'd ginger or made her
neighbours believe she wept for the death of a third husband。 But it is true�察�
without any slips of prolixity or crossing the plain highway of talk�察�that the
good Antonio�察�the honest Antonio´ O that I had a title good enough to keep
his name company� � SALERIO。 Come�察 �the full stop。 SOLANIO。 Ha� �
What sayest thou�拭�Why�察�the end is�察�he hath lost a ship。 SALERIO。 I would
it might prove the end of his losses。 SOLANIO。 Let me say amen betimes�察�
lest the devil cross my prayer�察�for here he comes in the likeness of a Jew。
Enter SHYLOCK
How now�察�Shylock�拭�What news among the merchants�拭�SHYLOCK。
You knew�察 �none so well�察 �none so well as you�察 �of my daughter's flight。
SALERIO。 That's certain�察 �I�察 �for my part�察 �knew the tailor that made the
wings she flew withal。 SOLANIO。 And Shylock�察�for his own part�察�knew
the bird was flidge�察�and then it is the complexion of them all to leave the
dam。 SHYLOCK。 She is damn'd for it。 SALERIO。 That's certain�察 �if the
devil may be her judge。 SHYLOCK。 My own flesh and blood to rebel� �
SOLANIO。 Out upon it�察�old carrion� �Rebels it at these years�拭�SHYLOCK。
I say my daughter is my flesh and my blood。 SALERIO。 There is more
difference between thy flesh and hers than between jet and ivory�察 �more
between your bloods than there is between red wine and Rhenish。 But tell
us�察 �do you hear whether Antonio have had any loss at sea or no�拭�
SHYLOCK。 There I have another bad match�此�a bankrupt�察�a prodigal�察�who
dare scarce show his head on the Rialto�察�a beggar�察�that was us'd to come so
smug upon the mart。 Let him look to his bond。 He was wont to call me
usurer�察 �let him look to his bond。 He was wont to lend money for a
Christian courtesy�察�let him look to his bond。 SALERIO。 Why�察�I am sure�察�if

he forfeit�察�thou wilt not take his flesh。 What's that good for�拭�SHYLOCK。
To bait fish withal。 If it will feed nothing else�察�it will feed my revenge。 He
hath disgrac'd me and hind'red me half a million�察 �laugh'd at my losses�察�
mock'd at my gains�察�scorned my nation�察�thwarted my bargains�察�cooled my
friends�察�heated mine enemies。 And what's his reason�拭�I am a Jew。 Hath not
a Jew eyes�拭�Hath not a Jew hands�察�organs�察�dimensions�察�senses�察�affections�察�
passions�察�fed with the same food�察�hurt with the same weapons�察�subject to
the same diseases�察�healed by the same means�察�warmed and cooled by the
same winter and summer�察 �as a Christian is�拭 �If you prick us�察 �do we not
bleed�拭�If you tickle us�察�do we not laugh�拭�If you poison us�察�do we not die�拭�
And if you wrong us�察�shall we not revenge�拭�If we are like you in the rest�察�
we will resemble you in that。 If a Jew wrong a Christian�察 �what is his
humility�拭�Revenge。 If a Christian wrong a Jew�察�what should his sufferance
be by Christian example�拭�Why�察�revenge。 The villainy you teach me I will
execute�察�and itshall go hard but I will better the instruction。
Enter a MAN from ANTONIO
MAN。 Gentlemen�察�my master Antonio is at his house�察�and desires to
speak with you both。 SALERIO。 We have been up and down to seek him。
Enter TUBAL
SOLANIO。 Here comes another of the tribe�察 �a third cannot be
match'd�察�unless the devil himself turn Jew。 Exeunt SOLANIO�察�SALERIO�察�
and MAN SHYLOCK。 How now�察 �Tubal�察 �what news from Genoa�拭 �Hast
thou found my daughter�拭�TUBAL。 I often came where I did hear of her�察�
