Answer:
Hence, why Salanio refers to his outburst as “a passion so confused.” (Salanio might also be laughing at the potentially bawdy joke about the two precious stones that Jessica has “upon her.”) This description indicates that Shylock is so flustered, he does not know how to react or what outrage to first address.
