　　威尼斯商人英语剧本

　　A：Antonio S：Shylock D：Duke N：Nerissa B：Bassanio P：Portia

　　D: Have mercy on Antonio, Shylock. Do not be so bitter.

　　S: I've promised to take my pound of flesh. If you do not let me have it, that will be a sign of weakness and no one will trust your laws any more. The greatness of Venice will soon be lost. Antonio is my enemy, and I hate him. B: Do all men kill the things they do not love?

　　公爵：宽恕安东尼奥吧，夏洛克，别这样怀恨在心。

　　夏洛克：我说过一定要拿走我应得的那一磅肉。要是您不准许我得到它，那将是一种软弱的表现，人们将不再信你们的法律了。威尼斯不久就会丧失它的伟大。安东尼奥是我的敌人，我恨他。

　　巴萨尼奥：难道所有的人都要铲除他们所不爱的东西吗?

　　A: It is useless trying to argue with Shylock. Don't wait any longer. Pass judgement on me and give Shylock what he wants.

　　B: I'll pay you six thousand ducats for the three thousand ducats that Antonio borrowed. S: If you offered me six times what you have just offered, I would still take my pound of flesh. Give me my pound of flesh!

　　D: Let us be calm, gentlemen. Shylock, how can you hope for mercy yourself when you show none?

　　S: I have done nothing wrong and I fear no judgement. I desire my pound of flesh.

　　As the Duke is wondering what to do, Nerissa, dressed like a lawyer's clerk, arrives with a letter from the famous lawyer whom Portia has visited. While the Duke is talking to Nerissa, Shylock gets ready to cut his pound of flesh from Antonio.
