The quality of mercy is not strain’d,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath
The Merchant of Venice (Act IV scene i)
This topic describes the simple,
gentle act of mercy. Mercy is not strained, the quote says, this means that no
one shows mercy because he or she has to, it is a subconscious act that comes
without premeditation. Mercy simply occurs the way gentle rain drops on the
ground, it is not an act of force, it simply comes to those with kind hearts.
