1 |
In sooth, I know not why I am so sad:
|
|
2 |
Believe me, no: I thank my fortune for it,
|
|
3 |
Fie, fie! |
|
4 |
Your worth is very dear in my regard.
|
|
5 |
I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano;
|
|
6 |
Farewell: I'll grow a talker for this gear. |
|
7 |
Is that any thing now? |
|
8 |
Well, tell me now what lady is the same
|
|
9 |
I pray you, good Bassanio, let me know it;
|
|
10 |
You know me well, and herein spend but time
|
|
11 |
Thou know'st that all my fortunes are at sea;
|
|
12 |
Shylock, although I neither lend nor borrow
|
|
13 |
And for three months. |
|
14 |
I do never use it. |
|
15 |
And what of him? did he take interest? |
|
16 |
This was a venture, sir, that Jacob served for;
|
|
17 |
Mark you this, Bassanio,
|
|
18 |
Well, Shylock, shall we be beholding to you? |
|
19 |
I am as like to call thee so again,
|
|
20 |
Content, i' faith: I'll seal to such a bond
|
|
21 |
Why, fear not, man; I will not forfeit it:
|
|
22 |
Yes Shylock, I will seal unto this bond. |
|
23 |
Hie thee, gentle Jew.
|
|
24 |
Come on: in this there can be no dismay;
|
|
25 |
Who's there? |
|
26 |
Fie, fie, Gratiano! where are all the rest?
|
|
27 |
Hear me yet, good Shylock. |
|
28 |
I pray thee, hear me speak. |
|
29 |
Let him alone:
|
|
30 |
The duke cannot deny the course of law:
|
|
31 |
Ready, so please your grace. |
|
32 |
I have heard
|
|
33 |
I pray you, think you question with the Jew:
|
|
34 |
I am a tainted wether of the flock,
|
|
35 |
Ay, so he says. |
|
36 |
I do. |
|
37 |
Most heartily I do beseech the court
|
|
38 |
But little: I am arm'd and well prepared.
|
|
39 |
So please my lord the duke and all the court
|
|
40 |
And stand indebted, over and above,
|
|
41 |
My Lord Bassanio, let him have the ring:
|
|
42 |
No more than I am well acquitted of. |
|
43 |
I am the unhappy subject of these quarrels. |
|
44 |
I once did lend my body for his wealth;
|
|
45 |
Here, Lord Bassanio; swear to keep this ring. |
|
46 |
I am dumb. |
|
47 |
Sweet lady, you have given me life and living;
