Answer:
Portia took a disguise as the lawyer and came for defending Antonio during the trial in the city Venice. She heard this from Bassanio. He won her hand after choosing the right casket.
He told Portia that the sea – merchant Antonio was in danger and feared that his life was at the hand of the moneylender named Shylock. Antonio also gave an undertaking saying that he would repay 3000 Ducats.
