SCENE II
Inquire the Jew’s house out, give him this deed
And let him sign it: we’ll away to-night
And be a day before our husbands home:
This deed will be well welcome to Lorenzo.
Fair sir, you are well o’erta’en
My Lord Bassanio upon more advice
Hath sent you here this ring, and doth entreat
Your company at dinner.
That cannot be:
His ring I do accept most thankfully:
And so, I pray you, tell him: furthermore,
I pray you, show my youth old Shylock’s house.
That will I do.
Sir, I would speak with you. |
Which I did make him swear to keep for ever.
[Aside to NERISSA] | Thou mayst, I warrant. |
That they did give the rings away to men;
But we’ll outface them, and outswear them too.
Come, good sir, will you show me to this house?
