Question

What test had Portia's father devised for her suitors? What oath did the suitors have to take before making their choice?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Portia's father had devised a lottery-the choice among three caskets of gold, silver, and lead-in which the one who makes the correct choice would marry her. The suitors had to take the oath before choosing that if they made the wrong choice, they would never again woo another lady.
