“Each suitor was faced with three boxes: a gold one, a silver one, and a lead one - each with corresponding clues. Whoever chose the gold box would earn what many men desired. Whoever chose the silver box would earn what many men deserved. And whoever chose the lead box would be required to give and risk all he had... since Portia was the pearl of great price, he must be willing to give everything and all that he had in order to have a true chance of winning her hand and her heart. Shakespeare's play - The Merchant of Venice”
