The Merchant of Venice

Why , there , there , there , there ! A diamond
gone cost me two thousand ducats in Frankfurt !
The curse never fell upon our nation till now , I
never felt it till now . Two thousand ducats in that ,
and other precious , precious jewels ! I would my
daughter were dead at my foot and the jewels in her
ear ; would she were hearsed at my foot and the
ducats in her coffin . No news of them ? Why so ? And
I know not what’s spent in the search ! Why , thou
loss upon loss ! The thief gone with so much , and so
much to find the thief , and no satisfaction , no
revenge , nor no ill luck stirring but what lights a’ my
shoulders , no sighs but a’ my breathing , no tears but
a’ my shedding .
