Thou wilt not only lose the forfeiture,

But touch'd with human gentleness and love,

Forgive a moiety of the principal;

Glancing an eye of pity on his losses,

That have of late so huddled on his back,

Enough to press a royal merchant down, (c)

And pluck commiseration of his state

From brassy bosoms, and rough hearts of flint,

From stubborn Turks and Tartars, never train'd

To offices of tender courtesy.
