All that glisters is not gold,<br />
Often have you heard that told:<br />
Many a man his life hath sold,<br />
But my outside to behold:<br />
Gilded tombs do worms enfold.(70)<br />
Had you been as wise as bold,<br />
Young in limbs, in judgment old,<br />
Your answer had not been inscroll'd:<br />
Fare you well; your suit is cold.<br />
Cold, indeed; and labour lost:(75)<br />
<strong>The</strong>n, farewell heat; and welcome frost.—<br />
Portia, adieu! I have too griev'd a heart<br />
To take a tedious leave. Thus losers part.<br />
Exit.<br />
PORTIA:<br />
A gentle riddance:—Draw the curtains, go;—<br />
Let all <strong>of</strong> his complexion choose me so.(80)<br />
Exeunt.<br />
Scene VIII<br />
[<strong>Venice</strong>]<br />
Enter Salerio and Solanio.<br />
SALERIO:<br />
Why, man, I saw Bassanio under sail;<br />
With him is Gratiano gone along;<br />
And in their ship, I am sure, Lorenzo is not.<br />
SOLANIO:<br />
<strong>The</strong> villain Jew with outcries rais'd the duke;<br />
Who went with him to search Bassanio's ship.(5)<br />
SALERIO:<br />
He came too late, the ship was under sail:<br />
But there the duke was given to understand,<br />
That in a gondola were seen together<br />
Lorenzo and his amorous Jessica;<br />
Besides, Antonio certified the duke,(10)<br />
<strong>The</strong>y were not with Bassanio in his ship.<br />
SOLANIO:<br />
I never heard a passion so confus'd,<br />
So strange, outrageous, and so variable,<br />
As the dog Jew did utter in the streets:<br />
My daughter!—O my ducats!—O my daughter!(15)<br />
