Why Aragon doesnot choose lead casket and gold casket
Why he choose silver casket
Plz answer fast I m having english exam tmmrw

Answer 1

Prince Arragon thinks gold means fools and lead means danger. He thought he could win PORTIA if he picked silver. But he failed as he finds a fool's head inside the silver casket.

Answer 2

Arragon does not choose the good casket because he thinks that choosing it will rank him among the foolish multitude of people who judge only by external appearance and thus invite danger towards themselves. For this, he gives the example of the martlet bird.

Arragon does not choose the lead casket because he thinks that it is not the worth containing Portia's portrait.

I hope you'll be satisfied with the answer. Plz mark as brainliest. Thx.
