Search all of eNotes Search Scene I Original Text Modern Translation [Venice] Enter Antonio, Salerio, and Solanio. ANTONIO: In sooth, I know not why I am so sad; It wearies me; you say it wearies you; But how I caught it, found it, or came by it, What stuff 'tis made of, whereof it is born, I am to learn; (5) And such a want-wit sadness makes of me, That I have much ado to know myself. ANTONIO: Really, I don t know why I m so sad; It wearies me; you say it wearies you; But how I caught it, found it, or came by it, What it s made of, where it started, I must find out; And sadness makes me so crazy That I don t know who I am. SALERIO: Your mind is tossing on the ocean; There, where your argosies, with portly sail, Like signiors and rich burghers on the flood, SALERIO: Your mind is tossing on the ocean, Where your ships, with full sails Like gentlemen and rich citizens on the water, Or as if they were in a procession of the sea Look over the minor merchants, That bow to them, pay them respect, As they fly by them with their woven wings. (10) Or, as it were, the pageants of the sea, Do overpeer the petty traffickers, That curt'sy to them, do them reverence, As they fly by them with their woven wings. SOLANIO: SOLANIO: Believe me, sir, had I such venture forth, (15) Believe me, sir, if I had such venture out there, The better part of my affections would The better part of my thoughts would Be with my hopes abroad. I should be still Be with my hope of their safe arrival. I d be Plucking the grass, to know where sits the Still plucking the grass to know where the wind wind; blows, Peering in maps, for ports, and piers, and roads: Looking over maps for ports and piers and And every object that might make me fear (20) roads; Misfortune to my ventures, out of doubt And every object that would make me afraid of Would make me sad. Misfortune to my ships, Would make me sad without a doubt.
