Question

What drawbacks in the bond is highlighted by Portia?​

Answer 1

Answer:

PORTIA: A pound of that same merchant’s flesh is thine. The court awards it, and the law doth give it. SHYLOCK: Most rightful judge! PORTIA: Tarry a little. There is something else. This bond doth give thee here no jot of blood. The words expressly are “a pound of flesh.” Take then thy bond, take thou thy pound of flesh, But in the cutting it if thou dost shed One drop of Christian blood, thy lands and goods Are by the laws of Venice confiscate Unto the state of Venice. SHYLOCK: Is that the law? I take this offer then: pay the bond thrice And let the Christian go.
