14621456onely my blood speakes to you in my vaines,

14631457and there is such confusion in my powers,

14641458as after some oration fairely spoke

14651459by a beloued Prince, there doth appeare

14661460among the buzzing pleased multitude.

14671461Where euery somthing beeing blent together,

14681462turnes to a wild of nothing, saue of ioy

14691463exprest, and not exprest: but when this ring

14701464parts from this finger, then parts life from hence,

14711465Ã ́ then be bold to say Bassanios dead.

14721466Ner. My Lord and Lady, it is now our time

14731467that haue stoode by and seene our wishes prosper,

14741468to cry good ioy, good ioy my Lord and Lady.

14751469Gra. My Lord Bassanio, and my gentle Lady,

14761470I wish you all the ioy that you can wish:

14771471for I am sure you can wish none from me:

14781472and when your honours meane to solemnize

14791473the bargaine of your fayth: I doe beseech you

14801474euen at that time I may be married to.

14811475Bass. With all my hart, so thou canst get a wife.

14821476Gra. I thanke your Lordship, you haue got me one.

14831477My eyes my Lord can looke as swift as yours:

14841478you saw the mistres, I beheld the mayd:

14851479You lou'd, I lou'd for intermission,

14861480No more pertaines to me my lord then you;

14871481your fortune stood vpon the caskets there,

14881482and so did mine to as the matter falls:

14891483for wooing heere vntill I swet againe,

14901484and swearing till my very rough was dry

14911485with oathes of loue, at last, if promise last

14921486I got a promise of this faire one heere

14931487to haue her loue: prouided that your fortune

14941488atchiu'd her mistres.

14951489Por. Is this true Nerrissa?

14961490Ner. Maddam it is, so you stand pleasd withall.

14971491Bass. And doe you Gratiano meane good fayth?

14981492Gra. Yes faith my Lord.

F2. Bass.
