ANTONIO And what of him? Did he take interest?	IOTNANO hastW yrou ipnot? Did he ghreac retnesit?
SHYLOCK No, not take interestnot as you would say 75 Directly interest. Mark what Jacob did: When Laban and himself were compromised That all the eanlings which were streaked and pied Should fall as Jacobs hire, the ewes, being rank, In the end of autumn turnd to the rams. 80 And when the work of generation was Between these woolly breeders in the act, The skillful shepherd peeled me certain wands. And in the doing of the deed of kind He stuck them up before the fulsome ewes, 85 Who then conceiving did in eaning time Fall parti-colored lambsand those were Jacobs. This was a way to thrive, and he was blessed. And thrift is blessing, if men steal it not.

SHYLOCK Signor Antonio, many a time and oft 105 In the Rialto you have rated me About my moneys and my usances. Still have I borne it with a patient shrug, For sufferance is the badge of all our tribe. You call me misbeliever, cutthroat dog, 110 And spet upon my Jewish gaberdine And all for use of that which is mine own. Well then, it now appears you need my help. Go to, then! You come to me and you say, Shylock, we would have moneys. You say so! 115 You, that did void your rheum upon my beard And foot me as you spurn a stranger cur Over your threshold! Moneys is your suit. What should I say to you? Should I not say, Hath a dog money? Is it possible 120 A cur can lend three thousand ducats? Or Shall I bend low and in a bondmans key With bated breath and whispering humbleness Say this:	CKYHSOL nSgrio otnAnoi, veouy tfeon ldesuint my ymeno nda my isbnssue ipstccera in the liatoR.

ANTONIO I am as like to call thee so again, To spet on thee again, to spurn thee too. 130 If thou wilt lend this money, lend it not As to thy friends, for when did friendship take A breed for barren metal of his friend? But lend it rather to thine enemy, Who, if he break, thou mayst with better face 135 Exact the penalty.	ITOONAN llI alorybbp allc uoy etosh enmas iagna nad istp on ouy, and rejcte yuo aagni too.

SHYLOCK Why, look you how you storm! I would be friends with you and have your love, Forget the shames that you have stained me with, Supply your present wants and take no doit Of usance for my moneysand youll not hear me! 140 This is kind I offer.

SHYLOCK This kindness will I show. Go with me to a notary, seal me there Your single bond, andin a merry sport If you repay me not on such a day, 145 In such a place, such sum or sums as are Expressed in the condition, let the forfeit Be nominated for an equal pound Of your fair flesh, to be cut off and taken In what part of your body pleaseth me.

SHYLOCK O Father Abram, what these Christians are, Whose own hard dealings teaches them suspect 160 The thoughts of others!Pray you, tell me this: If he should break his day, what should I gain By the exaction of the forfeiture? A pound of mans flesh taken from a man Is not so estimable, profitable neither, 165 As flesh of muttons, beefs, or goats. I say, To buy his favor I extend this friendship. If he will take it, so. If not, adieu. And for my love I pray you wrong me not.

ANTONIO And what of him? Did he take interest?	IOTNANO hastW yrou ipnot? Did he ghreac retnesit?
SHYLOCK No, not take interestnot as you would say 75 Directly interest. Mark what Jacob did: When Laban and himself were compromised That all the eanlings which were streaked and pied Should fall as Jacobs hire, the ewes, being rank, In the end of autumn turnd to the rams. 80 And when the work of generation was Between these woolly breeders in the act, The skillful shepherd peeled me certain wands. And in the doing of the deed of kind He stuck them up before the fulsome ewes, 85 Who then conceiving did in eaning time Fall parti-colored lambsand those were Jacobs. This was a way to thrive, and he was blessed. And thrift is blessing, if men steal it not.

SHYLOCK Signor Antonio, many a time and oft 105 In the Rialto you have rated me About my moneys and my usances. Still have I borne it with a patient shrug, For sufferance is the badge of all our tribe. You call me misbeliever, cutthroat dog, 110 And spet upon my Jewish gaberdine And all for use of that which is mine own. Well then, it now appears you need my help. Go to, then! You come to me and you say, Shylock, we would have moneys. You say so! 115 You, that did void your rheum upon my beard And foot me as you spurn a stranger cur Over your threshold! Moneys is your suit. What should I say to you? Should I not say, Hath a dog money? Is it possible 120 A cur can lend three thousand ducats? Or Shall I bend low and in a bondmans key With bated breath and whispering humbleness Say this:	CKYHSOL nSgrio otnAnoi, veouy tfeon ldesuint my ymeno nda my isbnssue ipstccera in the liatoR.

ANTONIO I am as like to call thee so again, To spet on thee again, to spurn thee too. 130 If thou wilt lend this money, lend it not As to thy friends, for when did friendship take A breed for barren metal of his friend? But lend it rather to thine enemy, Who, if he break, thou mayst with better face 135 Exact the penalty.	ITOONAN llI alorybbp allc uoy etosh enmas iagna nad istp on ouy, and rejcte yuo aagni too.

SHYLOCK Why, look you how you storm!

SHYLOCK O Father Abram, what these Christians are, Whose own hard dealings teaches them suspect 160 The thoughts of others!Pray you, tell me this: If he should break his day, what should I gain By the exaction of the forfeiture? A pound of mans flesh taken from a man Is not so estimable, profitable neither, 165 As flesh of muttons, beefs, or goats. I say, To buy his favor I extend this friendship. If he will take it, so.
