Answer:
Jessica is a scheming but a prudent young lady. This is understood by the fact that Lorenzo describes her as 'a beautiful, constant, truthful and wise' lady.
Jessica is a lot different from Portia. Portia is an obedient daughter, and follows her father's instructions, even though he is dead. Whereas, Jessica is not like her father Shylock. She does not follow his orders and betrays him by running away with a Christian and also stealing her father's money.
