Among the options from "The Merchant of Venice," the one that reflects that fact that it was common for money to be a large consideration when two people would marry in Elizabeth England is:
B. "I do in birth deserve her, and in fortunes," (Line 32)
<h3>Who is the speaker of the lines?</h3>
- The lines from Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice" are spoken by the Prince of Morocco, one of Portia's suitors. Portia is a beautiful, intelligent, and wealthy heiress.
<h3>Who does line B reveal about Elizabethan England?</h3>
- In the line spoken in option B, the Prince of Morocco is saying that he deserves to marry Portia because they are both equally well born and rich.
