The comicall Historie of
12051200Shy. There I haue another bad match, a bankrout, a prodigall,
12061201who dare
scarce
shewe his head on the Ryalto, a begger that was
12071202v
sd to come
so
smug vpon the Mart: let him looke to his bond,
12081203he was wont to call me v
surer, let him looke to his bond, hee was
12091204wont to lende money for a Chri
stian cur
sie, let him looke to his
12111206Salari. Why I am
sure if he forfaite, thou wilt not take his
fle
sh,
12141208Shyl. To baite
fish with all, if it will feede nothing el
se, it will
12151209feede my reuenge; hee hath di
sgrac'd me, and hindred me halfe a
12161210million, laught at my lo
sses, mockt at my gaines,
scorned my Na
- 12171211tion, thwarted my bargaines, cooled my friends, heated mine ene
- 12181212mies, and whats his rea
son, I am a Iewe: Hath not a Iewe eyes,
12191213hath not a Iewe hands, organs, dementions,
sences, a
ffe
ctions, pa
ssions,
12201214fed with the
same foode, hurt with the
same weapons,
sub
- 12211215to the
same di
sea
ses, healed by the
same meanes, warmed and
12221216cooled by the
same Winter and Sommer as a Chri
stian is: if you
12231217pricke vs doe we not bleede, if you tickle vs doe wee not laugh, if
12241218you poy
son vs doe wee not die, and if you wrong vs
shall wee not
12251219reuenge, if we are like you in the re
st, we will re
semble you in that.
12261220If a Iewe wrong a Chri
stian, what is his humillity, reuenge? If a
12271221Chri
stian wrong a Iewe, what
should his
su

shall goe hard but I will better the in
stru
ction.
