In merchant of venice why did the words of inscripiton on the silver casket appeal to arragon

Answer 2

Words on the inscription on the silver casket appeal to Arragon because the word 'deserves' meaning 'merit' in the inscription appeals to him. He thinks himself to be the most deserving. He feels that there are many who succeed without having any inner merit. But he 'deserves' because of his inherited nobility.
