This just in, Portia, rich heiress of her late father, is in the market for a new suitor. It is said her father devised a sort of lottery to assist her in finding that perfect man. So here is how she will choose:
There are three caskets, one gold, one silver, one lead. Choose the correct one and you win Porita's hand in marriage, but choose incorrectly and you may never marry again.
On another note, Antonio has borrowed three thousand ducats from the Jew Shylock. This may seem like an ordinary deal, but do not be mistaken! If Antonio fails to pay off his loan by the deadline in three months,he will owe Shylock one pound of his flesh. Yes you read that right, one pound of real human flesh. Revenge is what Shylock called it. Revenge for many years of suffering Antonio's torture.
