IAGO:Stand you awhile apart;Confine yourself but in a patient list.Whilst you were here o’erwhelmed with your grief—A passion most unsuiting such a man—Cassio came hither: I shifted him away,And laid good ‘scuse upon your ecstasy,Bade him anon return and here speak with me;The which he promised. Do but encave yourself,And mark the fleers, the gibes, and notable scorns,That dwell in every region of his face;For I will make him tell the tale anew,Where, how, how oft, how long ago, and whenHe hath, and is again to cope your wife:I say, but mark his gesture. Marry, patience;Or I shall say you are all in all in spleen,And nothing of a man.Othello Act IV, scene iA housewife that by selling her desiresBuys herself bread and clothes: it is a creatureThat dotes on Cassio; as ’tis the strumpet’s plagueTo beguile many and be beguiled by one:He, when he hears of her, cannot refrainFrom the excess of laughter. Here he comes:[Re-enter CASSIO.]As he shall smile, Othello shall go mad;And his unbookish jealousy must construePoor Cassio’s smiles, gestures and light behavior,Quite in the wrong. How do you now, lieutenant?CASSIO: The worser that you give me the additionWhose want even kills me.OTHELLO:Dost thou hear, Iago?I will be found most cunning in my patience;But—dost thou hear?—most bloody.IAGO:That’s not amiss;But yet keep time in all. Will you withdraw?IAGO: Ply Desdemona well, and you are sure on’t.[Speaking lower]Now, if this suit lay in Bianco’s power,How quickly should you speed![Othello retires.]CASSIO:Alas, poor caitiff!Now will I question Cassio of Bianca,66OTHELLO: Look, how he laughs already!
IAGO: I never knew woman love man so.Othello Act IV, scene iIAGO: I am a very villain else.CASSIO: Alas, poor rogue! I think, i’ faith, she loves me.OTHELLO: Now he denies it faintly, and laughs it out.IAGO: Do you hear, Cassio?OTHELLO:Now he importunes himTo tell it o’er: go to; well said, well said.IAGO: She gives it out that you shall marry hey:Do you intend it?CASSIO: Ha, ha, ha!OTHELLO: Do you triumph, Roman? do you triumph?OTHELLO: Have you scored me? Well.CASSIO: This is the monkey’s own giving out: she ispersuaded I will marry her, out of her own love andflattery, not out of my promise.OTHELLO: Iago beckons me; now he begins the story.CASSIO: She was here even now; she haunts me in everyplace. I was the other day talking on the sea-bankwith certain Venetians; and thither comes the bauble,and, by this hand, she falls me thus about my neck—OTHELLO: Crying ‘O dear Cassio!’ as it were: his gestureimports it.CASSIO: I marry her! what? a customer! Prithee, bearsome charity to my wit: do not think it so unwholesome.Ha, ha, ha!OTHELLO: So, so, so, so: they laugh that win.IAGO: ‘Faith, the cry goes that you shall marry her.CASSIO: Prithee, say true.67CASSIO: So hangs, and lolls, and weeps upon me; sohales, and pulls me: ha, ha, ha!OTHELLO: Now he tells how she plucked him to mychamber. O, I see that nose of yours, but not that dogI shall throw it to.CASSIO: Well, I must leave her company.
