173 "Clarence comes.",
174
175 "To bait fish withal: if it will feed nothing else," +
176 "it will feed my revenge. He hath disgraced me, and" +
177 "hindered me half a million; laughed at my losses," +
178 "mocked at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my" +
179 "bargains, cooled my friends, heated mine" +
180 "enemies; and what's his reason? I am a Jew. Hath" +
181 "not a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs," +
182 "dimensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with" +
183 "the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject" +
184 "to the same diseases, healed by the same means," +

187 "if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison" +
188 "us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not" +
189 "revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will" +
190 "resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian," +
191 "what is his humility? Revenge. If a Christian" +
192 "wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by" +
193 "Christian example? Why, revenge. The villany you" +

195 "will better the instruction.",
196
197 "Virtue! a fig! 'tis in ourselves that we are thus" +
198 "or thus. Our bodies are our gardens, to the which" +
199 "our wills are gardeners: so that if we will plant" +
200 "nettles, or sow lettuce, set hyssop and weed up" +

202 "distract it with many, either to have it sterile" +
203 "with idleness, or manured with industry, why, the" +
204 "power and corrigible authority of this lies in our" +
205 "wills. If the balance of our lives had not one" +
206 "scale of reason to poise another of sensuality, the" +
207 "blood and baseness of our natures would conduct us" +
208 "to most preposterous conclusions: but we have" +
209 "reason to cool our raging motions, our carnal" +
210 "stings, our unbitted lusts, whereof I take this that" +
211 "you call love to be a sect or scion.",
212
213 "Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow!" +
214 "You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout" +
215 "Till you have drench'd our steeples, drown'd the cocks!" +

221 "That make ingrateful man!"
