    Her frequent references to god are absolutely references to a christian god, and mercy emerges as a first-rate of that god. It isn't always shylock's god. There is no understanding between the two. Shylock's reply is truly, "my deeds upon my head! I crave the regulation.' his god does no longer require him to deliver mercy, simply obedience to the laws and rules of the antique testament. Shylock is defeated by way of portia's smart manipulation of the regulation, preserving that whilst he's entitled to his pound of flesh, now not one drop of antonio's blood can be spilled in getting it. Furthermore, his call for to what's legally his has left him in violation of any other venetian law. Portia tells shylock that for threatening the life of antonio, his goods are forfeited 'and the wrongdoer's lifestyles lies inside the mercy / of the duke handiest ...' now that it's far shylock who is in want of the mercy of the courtroom the line between mercy and revenge will become blurred. Portia, after so eloquently extolling the virtue of mercy appears directly to forget her personal speech when it comes to her exercising of mercy. Once portia turns the tables, the duke, bassanio, and antonio are all willing to allow a defeated shylock to walk away with his life and 1/2 his cash
