Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Essentially, Shylock wants Antonio's flesh to satisfy his revenge and punish Antonio for the numerous times the merchant has wronged him. The reason he actually gives in demanding it is "to bait fish withal". Shylock wants to use Antonio's flesh as fish bait--though one rather hopes we are to take him with some irony!
