Why did Shylock refuse the money offered by Bassanio?

Open in App

Solution

Shylock refused the money offered by Bassanio because he hated Antonio and wanted Antonio to forfeit the pound of flesh as mentioned in the bond. He did not show Antonio any mercy and was more interested in getting rid of Antonio than getting twice the amount of money loaned from Bassanio.

SHYLOCK

Well, thou shalt see, thy eyes shall be thy judge,
The difference of old Shylock and Bassanio:--

As thou hast done with me:--What, Jessica!--
And sleep and snore, and rend apparel out;--
Why, Jessica, I say!
