IAGO . Very well . RODERIGO . I tell you ’ tis 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 will seek satisfaction of you . IAGO . You have said now . RODERIGO . Ay , and said nothing but what I protest intendment of doing . IAGO . Why , now I see there’s mettle in thee , and even from this instant do build on thee a better opinion than ever before . Give me thy hand , Roderigo . Thou hast taken against me a most just exception , but yet I protest , I have dealt most directly in thy affair . RODERIGO . It hath not appeared . IAGO . I grant indeed it hath not appeared , and your suspicion is not without wit and judgement . But , Roderigo , if thou hast that in thee indeed , which I have greater reason to believe now than ever , — I mean purpose , courage , and valour , — this night show it . If thou the next night following enjoy not Desdemona , take me from this world with treachery and devise engines for my life . RODERIGO . Well , what is it ? Is it within reason and compass ? IAGO . Sir , there is especial commission come from Venice to depute Cassio in Othello’s place . RODERIGO . Is that true ? Why then Othello and Desdemona return again to Venice . IAGO . O , no ; he goes into Mauritania , and takes away with him the fair Desdemona , unless his abode be lingered here by some accident : wherein none can be so determinate as the removing of Cassio . RODERIGO . How do you mean “ removing ” of him ? IAGO . Why , by making him uncapable of Othello’s place : knocking out his brains . RODERIGO . And that you would have me to do ? IAGO . Ay , if you dare do yourself a profit and a right . He sups tonight with a harlotry , and thither will I go to him . He knows not yet of his honourable fortune . If you will watch his going thence , which I will fashion to fall out between twelve and one , you may take him at your pleasure : I will be near to second your attempt , and he shall fall between us . Come , stand not amazed at it , but go along with me . I will show you such a necessity in his death that you shall think yourself bound to put it on him . It is now high supper - time , and the night grows to waste . About it . RODERIGO . I will hear further reason for this . IAGO . And you shall be satisfied . [ Exeunt . ] SCENE III . Cyprus . Another Room in the Castle . Enter Othello , Lodovico , Desdemona , Emilia and Attendants . LODOVICO . I do beseech you , sir , trouble yourself no further . OTHELLO . O , pardon me ; ’ twill do me good to walk . LODOVICO . Madam , good night . I humbly thank your ladyship . DESDEMONA . Your honour is most welcome . OTHELLO . Will you walk , sir ? — O , Desdemona , — DESDEMONA . My lord ? OTHELLO . Get you to bed on th ’ instant , I will be return’d forthwith . Dismiss your attendant there . Look ’ t be done .
