Antonio signs a bond where he promises to repay three thousand ducats to Shylock in three months. If Antonio fails to do so, Shylock will have the forfeiture of his bond which is Antonio repaying the bond with a pound of his flesh instead of ducats.
- "Go with me to a notary, seal me there
Your single bond; and, in a merry sport,
If you repay me not on such a day,
In such a place, such sum or sums as are
Express'd in the condition, let the forfeit
Be nominated for an equal pound
Of your fair flesh, to be cut off and taken..." (1.3.140-146)
