68 THE MERCHANT OF VENICE [ACT III Salan. And Shylock, for his own part, knew the bird was fledged; and then it is the complexion" of3o them all to leave the dam. Shy. She is damned for it. Salar. That^s certain, if the devil" may be her jud^e. Shy. My own flesh and blood" to rebel! Salan. Out upon it, old carrion! rebels it at these years ? Shy. I say, my daughter is my flesh and blood. Salar. There is more difference between thv flesh and hers than between jet and ivory; more between40 your bloods than there is between red wine and rhen- Ish." But tell us, do you hear whether Antonio have had any loss at sea or no ? Shy. There I have another bad match": a bankrupt, a prodigal," who dare scarce show his head on the Eialto; a beggar, that was used to come so smug upon the mart; let him look to his bond: he was wont to call me usurer; let him look to his bond: he was wont to lend money for a Christian courtesy; let him look to his bond." So Salar. Why, I am sure, if he forfeit, thou wilt not take his flesh: what's that ^ood for" ? Shy. To bait fish withal: if it will feed nothing
SCENE 1.] THE MERCHANT OF VENICE 59 else, it will feed my revenge. He hath disgraced" me, and hindered me half a million; laughed at my losses, mocked at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated mine enemies; and what's his reason ? I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes ? hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions ? fed with the 60 same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Christian is ? If you prick us, do we not bleed ? if you tickle us, do we not laugh ? if you poison us, do we not die ? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge ? if we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian, what is his humility" ? Revenge. If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by Christian example ? 70 Why, revenge. The villany you teach me, I will execute ; and it shall go hard" but I will better the instruction." Enter a Servant. Serv. Gentlemen, my master Antonio is at his house, and desires to speak with you both. Salar. We have been up and down to seek him.
