O father Abram, what these Christians are,Whose own hard dealings teaches them suspectThe thoughts of others! Pray you, tell me this;If he should break his day, what should I gainBy the exaction of the forfeiture?A pound of man's flesh taken from a manIs not so estimable, profitable neither,As flesh of muttons, beefs, or goats. I say,To buy his favour, I extend this friendship:If he will take it, so; if not, adieu;And, for my love, I pray you wrong me not.
ANTONIO
Yes Shylock, I will seal unto this bond.
SHYLOCK
Then meet me forthwith at the notary's;Give him direction for this merry bond,And I will go and purse the ducats straight,See to my house, left in the fearful guardOf an unthrifty knave, and presentlyI will be with you.ANTONIO
Hie thee, gentle Jew.
[Exit Shylock]
The Hebrew will turn Christian: he grows kind.

I like not fair terms and a villain's mind.
