 Studying The Merchant of Venice? Here's how you can analyze that two scenes six. The scene opens with Gratiano and Salarino outside Charlotte's house waiting for Lorenzo. They are surprised that Lorenzo is so late. He's almost an hour late and Gratiano says that lovers are usually so quick to be together. Gratiano uses this metaphor to show that he thinks that with time lovers get a little bit bored of each other and they're not as keen on each other as they usually are at the start of their relationship. The stage direction show us that Lorenzo finally appears and he calls to Jessica who comes out dressed as a man. Jessica is at first embarrassed to reveal herself as she's ashamed to look like a boy, yet Lorenzo speaks using siblings to tell Jessica that he still thinks she's beautiful even if she's dressed as a boy. Jessica is relieved to hear this and she steals more of her father's money as well as his jewellery before she decides to run away and elope with Lorenzo. Lorenzo is excited to run off with Jessica and Shakespeare uses the rule of three as well as repetition here to show that Lorenzo believes Jessica is a good person.
