NERISSA. Come, good sir, will you show me to this house?
[ Exeunt.] ACT V. SCENE I. Belmont. The avenue to PORTIA ' s house. [ Enter LORENZO and JESSICA.]
LORENZO. The moon shines bright: in such a night as this, When the sweet wind did gently kiss the trees, And they did make no noise, in such a night, Troilus methinks mounted the Troyan walls, And sigh ' d his soul toward the Grecian tents, Where Cressid lay that night.
JESSICA. In such a night Did Thisby fearfully o ' ertrip the dew, And saw the lion ' s shadow ere himself, And ran dismay ' d away.
LORENZO. In such a night Stood Dido with a willow in her hand Upon the wild sea-banks, and waft her love To come again to Carthage.
JESSICA. In such a night Medea gather ' d the enchanted herbs That did renew old AEson.
