He rejected the lead casket, as he did not find it worth.
- The question has been asked from The Merchant of Venice by William Shakespeare.
- The casket was refused as he believed that if he is judged by his own standards, his credentials may be quite high to win Portia.
- However, not being assured of what he deserves is a sign of weakness that will bring him dishonour.
- As a result, the Prince rejects the base lead, arguing that because she is a valuable gem, it cannot retain such a great person as her.
