One Will Shakespeare. It's a light, romantic
• comedy, but through the pretty speeches
andcomic complications runs an iron and
and irony that almost steals the play every
time it is read or performed: the story of
Shylock the money -lender and his insist-
ence on his pound of flesh.
That word and that phrase have become
part of our language. You may have heard
someone say, "He's a regular Shylock,"
or "He always wants his pound of flesh." •
They are synonyms of a merciless greed,
• hatred, and desire for revenge.
For those who have forgotten the plot, or
haven't read or seen the play, I'll give a '
• A rich merchant is approached by his
• best friend, a young man who has
squandered all his money, including a
goodly sum the merchant has lent him. The
young fellow wants his f•riend to lend him
• another sum, about S35,000. so that he can
get himself all duded up and marry a
• Wealthy heiress, upon which he will return
all the money he owes. For friendship's
sake, the rieh merchant says, "No prob-
lem. All my cash is tied up in ships at sea
with., rich cargoes, but my credit is
excellent. Go borrow the money and I'll
back your note." Or words to that effect, I
am Will Smiley, not Will Shakespeare.
Sp the young blade goes to a notorious
money -lender, Shylock, who agrees to lend
him the money for' three months. Usually,
he charges more interest than Household
Finance, but this time he won't charge any.
The plot thickens.
In a few sneering asides, we learn that
Shylock hates the rich merchant. He has
•reasons. The merchant has spat upon him,
• spurned him, called him dog, and hurt him
badly in the pocketbook by lending money
interest-free. Shylock can stand the' spit- .
ting and the names, but he turns purple
when he thinks sonieone is lending Money
with no interest when he could be copping
40 per tent.
He sees his chance. Sure, he'll lend the
young spender the money, interest-free,
provided the merchant will sign a bond:
that if the money is not repaid by a certain
date, Shylock may take a pound of flesh
from any part of the merchant's body.
It's all a joke, �f dowse. As Shylock
points out, a pound of human flesh is not
worth as mtich as a pound of veal, or even a
pound of hamburger. (This was before
inflation. I wouldn't bet on it nowadays.)
The rich Merchant agrees, airily.- After '
all, his ships will be ln with their rich
eargoes a whole month before the bend is
due, And nobody would take a pound �f.

Anyway» The whole • thing got me
thinking of usury. This was once an honest
term meaning interest on money loaned. It
has since come to mean charging excessive
• interest on money loaned.. • A dirty busi-
ness.
In Elizabethan England, usury was a
crime, and heavily punished. Right up to
the death penalty, depending on whom you
knew, in the right circles.
And 1 began thinking about usury, in it's
pejorative (that means name-calling) sense
• in our society today. Is it shameful to be a
usurer? Is .esury something to be hidden
•
under the rug? Are there any penalties for
usury? Answer: no. ,
Our modern usurers are not even
ashamed of what they do. They advertise it
in all the media. .
They run all the way from our banks.

Try borrowing 520,000 from Anti Murry

can't tneef the deadline.
We are surrounded by usurers, seeking
the blood out of us. Maybe Shaketpeare

Canada, shoet them quietly, and burn the
presidents of banks and finance companies
