Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice Act 5 scene 1, from your trusted Shakespeare source. Deserved it too; and then the boy, his clerk, That took some pains in writing, he begg'd mine; And neither man nor master would take aught. What man is there so much unreasonable, If you had pleased to have defended it. With any terms of zeal, wanted the modesty.

I feel too much thy blessing: make it less, For fear I surfeit. GRATIANO My lord Bassanio and my gentle lady, I wish you all the joy that you can wish; For I am sure you can wish none from me: And when your honours mean to solemnize The bargain of your faith, I do beseech you, Even at that time I may be married too. BASSANIO With all my heart, so thou canst get a wife.

The Merchant of Venice. Shakespeare homepage Merchant of Venice Act 1, Scene 1 Next scene. Enter ANTONIO, SALARINO, and SALANIO. In sooth, I know not why I am so sad: It wearies me; you say it wearies you; But how I caught it, found it, or came by it, What stuff 'tis made of, whereof it is born, I am to learn; And such a want-wit sadness makes of me, That I have much ado to know myself. I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano; A stage where every man must play a part, And mine a sad one. GRATIANO. Let me play the fool: With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come, And let my liver rather heat with wine Than my heart cool with mortifying groans.

Historical Context of The Merchant of Venice. Like much of the rest of Europe, England severely restricted the rights of Jews. In fact, Jews were banished completely from England in 1290 by King Edward I, and were not officially allowed to return until 1655, when Oliver Cromwell allowed Jews to return. This exile was technically in effect during Shakespeare's time, but scholars believe that a few hundred Jews still lived around London in the guise of Christians.

Portia is the protagonist of William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. A rich, beautiful, and intelligent heiress of Belmont, she is bound by the lottery set forth in her father's will, which gives potential suitors the chance to choose among three caskets. If he chooses the right casket, he wins Portia's hand in marriage. If he chooses the incorrect casket, he must leave and never seek another woman in marriage. She is said to be blonde and has curly hair

Read the full text of The Merchant of Venice Act 1 Scene 2 with a side-by-side translation HERE. We now meet Portia, who turns out to be more than a spoiled little rich girl. Portia complains to her woman-in-waiting (read: her sidekick), Nerissa, that she's tired of the world. Count Palatine is too gloomy, and the French lord, Monsieur Le Bon, has too many personalities for Portia to make fun of each of them.

Another thing to bear in mind as you read The Merchant of Venice text are Shakespeare’s stage directions, which are italicised. Stage directions are instructions and direction to the actors, and not spoken lines. Some stage directions can be a little confusing, so have a read of our understanding Shakespeare’s stage directions article. The text of The Merchant of Venice is very long, so we’ve separated the play into one page per Scene

See a Problem? We’d love your help. The man that hath no music in himself, Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils; The motions of his spirit are dull as night, And his affections dark as Erebus. Let no such man be trusted. I have spoke thus much To mitigate the justice of thy plea, Which if thou follow, this strict court of Venice Must needs give sentence 'gainst the merchant there. William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice.
