Merchant of Venice

Antonio is a wealthy and popular merchant in Venice. His
friend Bassanio needs money to travel to Belmont, where he
hopes he can marry the beautiful Portia. Antonio has no
cash, so he goes to Shylock, a moneylender. Shylock will
lend the money, but on one condition: if Antonio does not
pay him back on time, Shylock can take “a pound of flesh”
from Antonio. Will Antonio lose his life so that Bassanio can
marry the woman he loves?
