SHYLOCK: "Gaoler, look to him. Tell not me of mercy -- This is the fool that lent out money gratis. Gaoler, look to him."

Enter SHYLOCK, SOLANIO, ANTONIO, and GAOLER

SHYLOCK: "I'll have my bond; speak not against my bond. I have sworn an oath that I will have my bond. Thou call'dst me dog before thou hadst a cause, But, since I am a dog, beware my fangs; The Duke shall grant me justice. I do wonder, Thou naughty gaoler, that thou art so fond To come abroad with him at his request."

ANTONIO: "Hear me yet, good Shylock."

SHYLOCK: "I'll have my bond. I will not hear thee speak; I'll have my bond; and therefore speak no more. I'll not be made a soft and dull-ey'd fool, To shake the head, relent, and sigh, and yield, To Christian intercessors. Follow not; I'll have no speaking; I will have my bond."

ANTONIO: "I pray thee hear me speak."

SOLANIO: "It is the most impenetrable cur That ever kept with men."

Exit

ANTONIO: "Let him alone; I'll follow him no more with bootless prayers. He seeks my life; his reason well I know: I oft deliver'd from his forfeitures Many that have at times made moan to me; Therefore he hates me."

Exeunt

SOLANIO: "I am sure the Duke Will never grant this forfeiture to hold."

ANTONIO: "The Duke cannot deny the course of law; For the commodity that strangers have With us in Venice, if it be denied, Will much impeach the justice of the state, Since that the trade and profit of the city Consisteth of all nations. Therefore, go; These griefs and losses have so bated me That I shall hardly spare a pound of flesh To-morrow to my bloody creditor. Well, gaoler, on; pray God Bassanio come To see me pay his debt, and then I care not."
