How does Nerissa remind Portia about Bassanio’s appearance in Belmont? Your answer
Answers
Explanation:
At Belmont, Portia would like Bassanio to delay before he chooses one of the caskets. Already she has fallen in love with him, and she fears the outcome. She asks him to "tarry," to "pause a day or two," to "forbear awhile"; anything, she tells him, to keep him from possibly choosing the wrong casket. Bassanio, however, begs to choose one of them. His anxiety is too great. If he waits, it is as though he "lives on the rack." Thus Portia acquiesces and tells her servants that this choice is no ordinary choice; therefore, she would like music to be played "while he doth make his choice."
Her father's will states that any would-be husband of Portia's has to correctly complete a task. ... Nerissa reminds Portia about the nobleman Bassanio who once visited them. She says that he deserves a beautiful wife more than all the other men and Portia agrees.
