5. Think of Bassanio's long speech rejecting the golden casket. Is his strong disapproval
of pretence and falsehood in society sincere and apt for the situation? Or is it somewhat
dramatic and overdone, as though for an audience? See how he then goes on to choose
the lead casket with large-hearted expressions like 'thou meagre lead' and 'thy plainness
moves me more than eloquence'.
