You are a fool, go to. O Good Iago, What shall I do to win my Lord again? Good friend go to him, for by this light of heaven, I know not how I lost him. I pray you be content, 'tis but his humour, The business of the State does him offence, And he does chide with you. If 'twere no other. 'tis but so, I warrant you; Hark how these Instruments summon you to supper, And the great Messengers of Venice stay, Go in, and weep not, all things shall be well. How now Roderigo? I do not find that thou dealest justly with me. What in the contrary? Every day, thou dofftst me, with some device Iago; And rather, as it seems to me, thou keepest from me, All conveniency, than suppliest me, with the least Advantage of hope: I will indeed no longer endure it, Nor am I yet persuaded to put up in peace, what already I have foolishly suffered. Will you hear me Roderigo? Faith I have heard too much, for your words, And performance are no kin together. You charge me most unjustly. I have wasted myself out of means: the jewels you have had from me, to deliver to Desdemona, would half have corrupted a Votarist: you have told me she has received 'em, and returned me expectation, and comforts, of sudden respect, and acquittance, but I find none. Well, go to, very good. Very well, go to, I cannot go to man, it is not very well, by this hand, I say 'tis very scurvy, and begin to find myself fopt in it. Very well. I say it is not very well: I will make myself known to Desdemona, if she will return me my jewels, I will give over my suit, and repent my unlawful solicitation, if not, assure yourself I'll seek satisfaction of you. You have said now. I, and I have said nothing, but what I protest entendment of doing. Why now I see there's mettle in thee, and even from this time do build on thee, a better opinion than ever before, give me thy hand Roderigo: Thou hast taken against me a most just conception, but yet I protest, I have dealt most directly in thy affairs. It hath not appeared. I grant indeed it hath not appeared, and your suspicion is not without wit and judgement: But Roderigo, if thou hast that within thee indeed, which I have greater reason to believe now, then ever, I mean purpose, courage, and valour, this night show it, if thou the next night following enjoyest not Desdemona, take me from this world with treachery, and device engines for my life. Well, is it within reason and compass? Sir, there is especial command come from Venice, To depute Cassio in Othello's place. Is that true? why then Othello and Desdemona Return again to Venice.

You are a foole, goe to. O Good Iago, VVhat shall I doe to win my Lord againe? Good friend goe to him, for by this light of heauen, I know not how I lost him. I pray you be content, tis but his humour, The businesse of the State does him offence, And he does chide with you. If t'were no other. Tis but so, I warrant you; Harke how these Instruments summon you to supper, And the great Messengers of Venice stay, Goe in, and weepe not, all things shall be well. How now Roderigo? I doe not finde that thou dealst iustly with me. VVhat in the contrary? Euery day, thou dofst me, with some deuise Iago; And rather, as it seemes to me, thou keepest from me, All conueniency, then suppliest me, with the least Aduantage of hope: I will indeed no longer indure it, Nor am I yet perswaded to put vp in peace, what already I haue foolishly sufferd. Will you heare me Roderigo? Faith I haue heard too much, for your words, And performance are no kin together. You charge me most vniustly. I haue wasted my selfe out of meanes: the Iewels you haue had from me, to deliuer to Desdemona, would halfe haue corrupted a Votarist: you haue told me she has receiu'd em, and return'd mee expectation, and comforts, of suddaine respect, and acquittance, but I finde none. Well, goe to, very good. Very well, goe to, I cannot goe to man, it is not very well, by this hand, I say tis very suruy, and begin to finde my selfe fopt in it. Very well. I say it is not very well: I will make my selfe knowne to Desdemona, if she will returne me my Iewels, I will giue ouer my suite, and rpent my vnlawfull sollicitation, if not, assure your selfe I'le seeke satisfaction of you. You haue said now. I, and I haue said nothing, but what I protest entendment of doing. Why now I see there's mettle in thee, and euen from this time doe build on thee, a better opinion then euer before, giue me thy hand Roderigo: Thou hast taken against me a most iust conception, but yet I protest, I haue delt most directly in thy affaires. It hath not appeared. I grant indeed it hath not appear'd, and your suspition is not without wit and iudgement: But Roderigo, if thou hast that within thee indeed, which I haue greater reason to beleeue now, then euer, I meane purpose, courage, and valour, this night shew it, if thou the next night following enioyest not Desdemona, take mee from this world with treachery, and deuise engines for my life. Well, is it within reason and compasse? Sir, there is especiall command come from Venice, To depute Cassio in Othello's place. Is that true? why then Othello and Desdemona Returne againe to Venice.
