To prison till fit time Of Law, and course of direct Session, Call thee to answer. What if I do obey, How may the Duke be therewith satisfied, Whose Messengers are here about my side, Upon some present business of the State, To bear me to him. 'tis true most worthy Signior, The Duke's in Council, and your noble self, I am sure is sent for. How? the Duke in Council? In this time of the night? bring him away, Mine's not an idle cause, the Duke himself, Or any of my Brothers of the State, Cannot but feel this wrong, as 'ttwere their own. For if such actions, may have passage free, Bondslaves, and Pagans, shall our Statesmen be. There is no Composition in these news, That gives them credit. Indeed they are disproportioned, My letters say, a hundred and seven Galleys. And mine a hundred and forty. And mine two hundred: But though they jump not on a just account, As in these cases, where they aimed reports, 'tis oft with difference, yet do they all confirm A Turkish fleet, and bearing up to cypress. Nay, it is possible enough to judgement: I do not so secure me to the error, But the mayne Articles I do approve In fearful sense. What ho, what ho, what ho? A messenger from the Galley. Now, the business? The Turkish preparation makes for Rhodes, So was I bid report here, to the state. How say you by this change? This cannot be by no assay of reason— 'tis a Pageant, To keep us in false gaze: when we consider The importance of Cypress to the Turk: And let ourselves a gain, but understand, That as it more concerns the Turk then Rhodes, So may he with more facile question bear it. And in all confidence, he's not for Rhodes. Here is more news. The Ottamites, reverend and gracious, Steering with due course, toward the Isle of Rhodes, Have there injointed with an after fleet Of 30. sail, and now they do resterine Their backward course, bearing with frank appearance. Their purposes towards Cypress: Signior Montano, Your trusty and most valiant servitor; With his free duty recommends you thus, And prays you to believe him. 'tis certain then for Cypress, Marcus Luccicos is not here in town. he's now in Florence. Writ from us, wish him post, post hast dispatch; Othello, Roderigo, Iago, Cassio, and Offcers. Enter Brabantio and the valiant Moor. straite imploy you, Ottaman; Seigior, counsel, and your help to night, So did I yours, good your Grace pardon me, Neither my place, nor ought I heard of business Hath raised me from my bed, nor doth the general care Take any hold of me, for my particular griefs, Is of so floodgate and orebearing nature, That it engluts and swallows other sorrows, And it is still itself.
