Answer 2

This line is being said by Solanio (a friend of Antonio  and a Ventenian gentleman too) to Salarino (A Venetian gentleman, and friend to Antonio, Lorenzo, and Bassanio) from the play The Merchant of Venice (Act 3, Scene 1)by William Shakespeare

Explanation:

• Salerio and Solanio are the storytellers in play, and they fill in important information which the audience requires to fully understand the play. In one such scene,they give details about Antonio's shop containing cargoes having been ship wrecked
• Salarion says Solanio that there is has been a a rumour that Antonio had a ship carrying expensive cargo which had shipwrecked in the English Channel, Goodwin Sands an extremely dangerous sandbar. Several ships have sunk there, according to rumours
• Hearing this SoIanio says he hoped this new rumuor is a lie, akin to gossiping widow’s claim that she felt sorry that her third husband too died! However, it is true—And he did not want to get all mushy and go on and on ("But it is true, without any slips of prolixity or crossing the plain highway of talk,..".). This mean that Solanio wished that the rumour about Antonio's ship only be a rumour, but by hoping that the rumour would be like the gossip of widow's claim, he was being all mushy and he did not wish to continue like this and only hoped all well for Antonio
