I like listening to the voices of folks born in the 19th century.

I have an autographed photo of Ms. Terry as Portia. On the back of the photo, she has written the "Consider this, that in the course of justice, none of us should see salvation. We do pray for mercy." What a phenomenal actress. Thanks for posting this treasure.

Can't imagine living through the invention of film. Must've been surreal for her

Very interesting to hear a Victorian actor's actual voice. If this is representative, the ham factor must have been extremely high in 19th century theatre.

Portia IV i 179 Verse The Merchant of Venice The quality of mercy is not strain'd, It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath: it is twice blest; It blesseth him that gives and him that takes: 'Tis mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown; His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, The attribute to awe and majesty, Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; But mercy is above this sceptred sway; It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, It is an attribute to God himself; And earthly power doth then show likest God's When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew, Though justice be thy plea, consider this, That, in the course of justice, none of us Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy; And that same prayer doth teach us all to render The deeds of mercy. I have spoke thus much To mitigate the justice of thy plea; Which if thou follow, this strict court of Venice Must needs give sentence 'gainst the merchant there.
