1:28:01
- Well, where is he?
- He attendeth here hard by
1:28:04
to know your answer,
whether you"ll admit him.
1:28:06
Go, give him
courteous conduct to this place.
1:28:08
Meantime, the court
shall hear Bellario"s letter.
1:28:12
"Your grace shall understand that
at the receipt of your letter, I am very sick
1:28:16
"but in the instant your messenger came
there was with me a young doctor of Rome
1:28:20
"whose name is Balthasar.
1:28:22
"He comes at my asking to take my place.
1:28:25
"I beseech you,
let his lack of years be no impediment,
1:28:28
"for I never knew so young a body
with so old a head.
1:28:31
"I leave him to your gracious acceptance. "
1:28:34
You heard Bellario, what he writes.
Oh, and here, I take it, is the doctor come.
1:28:42
You are welcome.
1:28:44
Take your place.
1:28:48
Are you acquainted with the difference that
holds this present question in the court?
1:28:52
I am informed thoroughly of the case.
1:28:55
Which is the merchant here
and which the Jew?
1:28:58
Antonio and old Shylock, both stand forth.
1:29:06
- Is your name Shylock?
- Shylock is my name.
1:29:21
Of a strange nature is the suit you follow,
1:29:24
yet in such rule that the Venetian law
cannot deny you as you do proceed.
1:29:31
- You stand within his power, do you not?
- Ay, so he says.
1:29:35
- Do you confess the bond?
- I do.
1:29:40
Then must the Jew be merciful.
1:29:44
On what compulsion must I? Tell me that.
1:29:47
The quality of mercy is not strained,
1:29:52
it droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
upon the place beneath.
1:29:57
It is twice blessed -
1:29:59
it blesseth him that gives
and him that takes.
