My reading of Shylock's famous speech from Act 3, Scene 1 of The Merchant of Venice. I gave Shylock a more innovative phonology than I do many other characters in these plays. He has not only a raised & merged WAIT/MATE vowel as well as raised MEAT & GOAT vowels, but an unrounded STRUT vowel, & yod-coalescence, giving him a more "modern" sound.
