BASSANIO: Therefore, thou gaudy gold,
Hard food for Midas, I will have none of thee;
Nor none of thee, thou pale and common drudge
“Tween man and man: but thou, thou meagre lead,
Which rather threatens't than dost promise aught,
Thy paleness moves me more than eloquence,
And here choose I: joy be the consequence!
I'll rather dwell in my necessity.
