Here is a letter,
it comes from Padua, from old Bellario.

1:56:08
There you shall read
that Portia was the doctor,

1:56:15
Nerissa there her clerk.
1:56:19
Lorenzo here shall witness
I set forth as soon as you

1:56:22
and only just now returned.
1:56:31
Were you the doctor and I knew you not?
1:56:40
Were you the clerk
that is to make me a cuckold?

1:56:44
Ay, but the clerk that never means to do it
unless he live to be a man.

1:56:53
Sweet doctor,
1:56:56
you shall be my bedfellow.
1:56:59
When I am absent, then lie with my wife.
1:57:10
How now, Lorenzo?
1:57:12
My clerk has some good comforts too
for you.

1:57:16
Ay, there do I give to you and Jessica
from the rich Jew

1:57:22
a special deed of gift after his death
of all he dies possessed of.

1:57:27
Oh!
1:57:30
Fair ladies, you drop manna
in the way of starved people.

1:57:39
It is almost morning
1:57:42
and yet, I am sure you are not satisfied
with these events at full.

1:57:51
Let us go in.
1:57:54
And I will answer all things faithfully.
