| DUKE 20 How say you by this change? | EKDU tahW do ouy tinkh botua sith ehcgan? |
| FIRST SENATOR This cannot be, By no assay of reason. Tis a pageant, To keep us in false gaze. When we consider Th importancy of Cyprus to the Turk, And let ourselves again but understand 25 That as it more concerns the Turk than Rhodes So may he with more facile question bear it, For that it stands not in such warlike brace But altogether lacks th abilities That Rhodes is dressed in. If we make thought of this 30 We must not think the Turk is so unskillful To leave that latest which concerns him first, Neglecting an attempt of ease and gain To wake and wage a danger profitless. | TISRF RTESNOA yThe tanc ahve caghedn; sreeth no ywa shti ucdol be etur. tsI a irckt to neufcso us. nTkhi tboua ohw rptiamnto ryuCsp is to teh urksT, nad rmeeebrm thta eyht lcoud petaruc ypsurC orme iyeasl, scnie it itsn as lewl dprettoce as ehRdos is.

| MESSENGER 40 Of thirty sail. And now they do re-stem Their backward course, bearing with frank appearance Their purposes toward Cyprus.

| BRABANTIO So did I yours. Good your grace, pardon me. 55 Neither my place nor aught I heard of business Hath raised me from my bed, nor doth the general care Take hold on me, for my particular grief Is of so flood-gate and oerbearing nature That it engluts and swallows other sorrows 60 And it is still itself. | NAABBIOTR I uocdl ahev desu suoyr as lewl. ergvioF me, oyur gaecr.

| BRABANTIO Nothing, but this is so. | BNOBRATIA itNhogn, tub tshi is ture. |
| OTHELLO Most potent, grave, and reverend signiors, 80 My very noble and approved good masters, That I have taen away this old mans daughter, It is most true. True, I have married her. The very head and front of my offending Hath this extent, no more. Rude am I in my speech, 85 And little blessed with the soft phrase of peace, For since these arms of mine had seven years pith Till now some nine moons wasted, they have used Their dearest action in the tented field, And little of this great world can I speak, | ELHOOLT oeblN, enholarbo emegtnlen ohmw I eserv: tis uter tath vIe tkaen iths sanm rhuteagd ormf mhi adn rmareid reh. uBt athts my noly efsneof. ersehT oihgntn orme.

| 90 More than pertains to feats of broils and battle, And therefore little shall I grace my cause In speaking for myself. Yet, by your gracious patience, I will a round unvarnished tale deliver Of my whole course of love. What drugs, what charms, 95 What conjuration and what mighty magic For such proceeding I am charged withal I won his daughter. | rtapa omfr ihgfgint.

| BRABANTIO A maiden never bold, Of spirit so still and quiet that her motion Blushed at herself. And she, in spite of nature, 100 Of years, of country, credit, everything, To fall in love with what she feared to look on? It is a judgment maimed and most imperfect That will confess perfection so could err. Against all rules of nature, and must be driven 105 To find out practices of cunning hell Why this should be. I therefore vouch again That with some mixtures powerful oer the blood Or with some dram, conjured to this effect, He wrought upon her. | BTBRAOANI Shes a odgo rgil, euqit nad obneteid. hSe eusshlb at hte hlestsigt nhtig. nAd oyu wnta me to veibeel thta tdespie reh gnuoy eag and orerpp rpuibgginn she llef in vole wtih a amn hesd be afraid to okol at? heT rvey ohuthgt of it is ilcsuuodri. douY aevh to be dtsiup to kinht tath omneeos so efcpret olcud kema hscu an nurnaluat kemtias as tath. hTe videl utsm be nebhid thsi. ehfereTro I ysa naiag hatt he tmus vhea seud emso efwolrpu rdug or giamc iotopn on ehr. |

| OTHELLO 130 Her father loved me, oft invited me, Still questioned me the story of my life From year to year, the battles, sieges, fortunes, That I have passed. I ran it through, even from my boyish days, 135 To th very moment that he bade me tell it, Wherein I spoke of most disastrous chances, Of moving accidents by flood and field, Of hair-breadth scapes i th imminent deadly breach, Of being taken by the insolent foe 140 And sold to slavery, of my redemption thence And portance in my travelers history. Wherein of antres vast and deserts idle, Rough quarries, rocks, hills whose heads touch heaven It was my hint to speaksuch was my process 145 And of the Cannibals that each others eat, | EHOLTOL rHe hrtaef oveld me nda seud to einivt me to shi hsuoe feont, iytlcnlnoua ingaks me oabut my life nad lla het sltteab veI ouhfgt.

| The Anthropophagi, and men whose heads Grew beneath their shoulders. These things to hear Would Desdemona seriously incline. But still the house affairs would draw her hence, 150 Which ever as she could with haste dispatch, Shed come again, and with a greedy ear Devour up my discourse, which I, observing, Took once a pliant hour and found good means To draw from her a prayer of earnest heart 155 That I would all my pilgrimage dilate, Whereof by parcels she had something heard But not intentively. I did consent, And often did beguile her of her tears When I did speak of some distressful stroke 160 That my youth suffered. My story being done She gave me for my pains a world of sighs. She swore, in faith, twas strange, twas passing strange, Twas pitiful, twas wondrous pitiful. She wished she had not heard it, yet she wished 165 That heaven had made her such a man. She thanked me And bade me, if I had a friend that loved her, I should but teach him how to tell my story And that would woo her. Upon this hint I spake. She loved me for the dangers I had passed, 170 And I loved her that she did pity them. This only is the witchcraft I have used. Here comes the lady. Let her witness it. | adn emn htiw asehd gigwrno elbwo ihtre dsueslhor. heWn I aletkd btoau lla tseeh tnighs, snmoedDea uesd to leistn lienttaeytv.

| DESDEMONA My noble father, I do perceive here a divided duty. To you I am bound for life and education. My life and education both do learn me 185 How to respect you. You are the lord of duty. I am hitherto your daughter. But heres my husband. And so much duty as my mother showed To you, preferring you before her father, So much I challenge that I may profess 190 Due to the Moor my lord. | ODEESDMAN Faterh, iths ntsi yase for me. Im tnro.

I here do give thee that with all my heart 195 Which, but thou hast already, with all my heart I would keep from thee. For your sake, jewel, I am glad at soul I have no other child.

| BRABANTIO 210 So let the Turk of Cyprus us beguile, We lose it not, so long as we can smile. He bears the sentence well that nothing bears But the free comfort which from thence he hears. But he bears both the sentence and the sorrow 215 That, to pay grief, must of poor patience borrow. These sentences to sugar or to gall, Being strong on both sides, are equivocal. But words are words. I never yet did hear That the bruised heart was piercd through the ears. | TBBNAROAI So if hte Tsurk stlea sCrpuy rmof us, it ontw be dba as lnog as we epke lmnsigi. sIt esay to ectpca tledatpuis like tath if uyo heavnt otls agniythn. uBt Iev tosl imsontehg epcirous, dan I evha to tup up whti teh eputidalt as wlle as ffngsieur my lsos. lkaT is cphea.

| DUKE The Turk with a most mighty preparation makes for Cyprus. Othello, the fortitude of the place is best known to you, and though we have there a substitute of most allowed sufficiency, yet opinion, a sovereign mistress of effects, throws a more safer voice on you. You must therefore be content to slubber the gloss of your new fortunes with this more stubborn and boistrous expedition. | DEKU eTh Tuksr are gianhed ofr rCuspy thwi a fluopwer feelt. oOlehtl, oyu reantdsndu etrteb ahtn nnaoey ohw eht sesendfe ofr srCyup orwk. vEen hthugo we aveh a vrye dogo foeicfr in rchage heert lradyea, yeeveorn ssya ueory eth etrtbe anm for eht job.

I saw Othellos visage in his mind, And to his honors and his valiant parts Did I my soul and fortunes consecrate. 250 So that, dear lords, if I be left behind A moth of peace and he go to the war, The rites for which I love him are bereft me, And I a heavy interim shall support By his dear absence.

| RODERIGO It is silliness to live when to live is torment, and then have we a prescription to die when death is our physician. | IRDEOOGR stI lslyi to veil hnwe lief is rurtote. hTe olny uecr is etdah. |
| IAGO Oh, villainous! I have looked upon the world for four times seven years, and since I could distinguish betwixt a benefit and an injury I never found man that knew how to love himself. Ere I would say I would drown myself for the love of a guinea hen, I would change my humanity with a baboon. | GIOA Oh, how ipustd! eIv nbee avile ofr ynwtet-gtieh esrya, dna veI vreen tme a nam who newk tawh wsa oogd rfo ihm.

| IAGO Virtue? A fig! Tis in ourselves that we are thus or thus. Our bodies are our gardens, to the which our wills are gardeners. So that if we will plant nettles or sow lettuce, set hyssop and weed up thyme, supply it with one gender of herbs or distract it with manyeither to have it sterile with idleness, or manured with industrywhy, the power and corrigible authority of this lies in our wills. If the balance of our lives had not one scale of reason to poise another of sensuality, the blood and baseness of our natures would conduct us to most prepostrous conclusions. But we have reason to cool our raging motions, our carnal stings, our unbitted lusts. Whereof I take this that you call love to be a sect or scion. | IAOG Cnat elph it? sseneNon! hWat we rae is up to us. ruO eidsob are leik densgra adn uro rwlleoipw is kiel hte grneeadr. egpeinndD on hawt we tesewpnlad or etuetcl, or noe ndki of erhb heatrr hnat a tyaevir, the radeng wlil teihre be nberra adn seessul, or cirh dna eucptdoriv.

| RODERIGO It cannot be. | EGOIDRRO I tndo ebelevi it. |
| IAGO It is merely a lust of the blood and a permission of the will. Come, be a man. Drown thyself? Drown cats and blind puppies! I have professed me thy friend, and I confess me knit to thy deserving with cables of perdurable toughness. | IGAO uoY efle velo bacsuee uoy leef tsul dan uoy aevh no elwlorpwi. meCo on, be a nma. noDwr rlouysef? rogiwnnD is orf scta or nidbl ptipesdoupn nwodr eulsfryo! evI tdlo ouy Im ryuo ednifr, dan lIl scikt by oyu. |
| I could never better stead thee than now. Put money in thy purse. Follow thou the wars, defeat thy favor with an usurped beard. I say, put money in thy purse. It cannot be long that Desdemona should continue her love to the Moorput money in thy pursenor he his to her. It was a violent commencement in her, and thou shalt see an answerable sequestrationput but money in thy purse. These Moors are changeable in their willsfill thy purse with money. The food that to him now is as luscious as locusts shall be to him shortly as bitter as coloquintida. She must change for youth. When she is sated with his body she will find the errors of her choice. Therefore, put money in thy purse. If thou wilt needs damn thyself, do it a more delicate way than drowning. Make all the money thou canst. If sanctimony and a frail vow betwixt an erring barbarian and supersubtle Venetian be not too hard for my wits and all the tribe of hell, thou shalt enjoy her. Therefore make money. A pox of drowning thyself! Tis clean out of the way. Seek thou rather to be hanged in compassing thy joy than to be drowned and go without her. | vIe ernve been eomr fueuls to yuo tnha I liwl be onw. esHer htwa lyuol do. lSle lal uroy atsess dna yoru ndal, nda rnut it nito hsca. aosmDeedn ntca cetnunio giolnv eht oorM any eorm hant he anc nntoceui liongv erh. heS elfl in oelv iwht ihm ervy ddsueyln, adn tylelh karbe up jtsu as ddulynes. rooMs era ymdoo plpoee.So lsel ruoy anlsd nad sraei a lot of shca.

| IAGO Thou art sure of me. Go, make money. I have told thee often, and I re-tell thee again and again, I hate the Moor. My cause is hearted. Thine hath no less reason. Let us be conjunctive in our revenge against him. If thou canst cuckold him, thou dost thyself a pleasure, me a sport. There are many events in the womb of time which will be delivered. Traverse, go, provide thy money. We will have more of this tomorrow. Adieu. | OGAI You acn urtts me. Go wno nad gte hacs. I ldto uoy robeef, nad llI ltle yuo igaan dan aigan: I htea teh Moor.
