1:36:03
Tell her the process of Antonio"s end.
1:36:08
Say how I loved you,
speak me fair in death.

1:36:14
And when the tale is told,
1:36:17
bid her be judge
whether Bassanio had not once a love.

1:36:22
Repent but you
that you shall lose your friend

1:36:27
and you repent not that he pays your debt.
1:36:32
For if the Jew do cut but deep enough
1:36:35
I"ll pay it instantly with all my heart.
1:36:41
Antonio, I am married to a wife
1:36:47
which is as dear to me as life itself.
1:36:51
But life itself, my wife and all the world
1:36:56
are not with me esteemed above your life.
1:37:02
I would lose all, ay, sacrifice them all,
here to this devil

1:37:09
to deliver you.
1:37:12
I have a wife, whom, I protest, I love -
1:37:16
I would she were in heaven,
so she could entreat some power

1:37:21
to change this cursed Jew!
1:37:23
I have a daughter!
1:37:26
Would that any of the stock of Barrabas
been her husband

1:37:30
rather than a Christian.
1:37:33
We trifle time. I pray you, pursue sentence.
1:37:40
You may proceed.
1:37:43
A pound of that same
merchant"s flesh is yours.

1:37:47
The court awards it
and the law does give it.

1:37:51
Most rightful judge.
1:37:52
And you must cut this flesh
from off his breast.

1:37:56
The court awards it and the law allows it.
