Was there ever any man thus beaten out of season, when in the why and the wherefore is neither rime nor reason?

Was there ever any man thus beaten out of season, when in the why and the wherefore is neither rime nor reason?

The quote "Was there ever any man thus beaten out of season, when in the why and the wherefore is neither rime nor reason?" is from William Shakespeare's play "The Merchant of Venice." This line is spoken by Gratiano in Act 5, Scene 1, during the trial scene where Antonio is facing the consequences of his bond with Shylock.
