<p><blockquote>
<i>Enter OTHELLO and EMILIA</i>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech1><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=1>You have seen nothing then?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech2><b>EMILIA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=2>Nor ever heard, nor ever did suspect.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech3><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=3>Yes, you have seen Cassio and she together.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech4><b>EMILIA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=4>But then I saw no harm, and then I heard</A><br>
<A NAME=5>Each syllable that breath made up between them.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech5><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=6>What, did they never whisper?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech6><b>EMILIA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=7>Never, my lord.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech7><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=8>Nor send you out o' the way?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech8><b>EMILIA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=9>Never.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech9><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=10>To fetch her fan, her gloves, her mask, nor nothing?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech10><b>EMILIA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=11>Never, my lord.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech11><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=12>That's strange.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech12><b>EMILIA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=13>I durst, my lord, to wager she is honest,</A><br>
<A NAME=14>Lay down my soul at stake: if you think other,</A><br>
<A NAME=15>Remove your thought; it doth abuse your bosom.</A><br>
<A NAME=16>If any wretch have put this in your head,</A><br>
<A NAME=17>Let heaven requite it with the serpent's curse!</A><br>
<A NAME=18>For, if she be not honest, chaste, and true,</A><br>
<A NAME=19>There's no man happy; the purest of their wives</A><br>
<A NAME=20>Is foul as slander.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech13><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=21>Bid her come hither: go.</A><br>
<p><i>Exit EMILIA</i></p>
<A NAME=22>She says enough; yet she's a simple bawd</A><br>
<A NAME=23>That cannot say as much. This is a subtle whore,</A><br>
<A NAME=24>A closet lock and key of villanous secrets</A><br>
<A NAME=25>And yet she'll kneel and pray; I have seen her do't.</A><br>
<p><i>Enter DESDEMONA with EMILIA</i></p>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech14><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=26>My lord, what is your will?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech15><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=27>Pray, chuck, come hither.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech16><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=28>What is your pleasure?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech17><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=29>Let me see your eyes;</A><br>
<A NAME=30>Look in my face.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech18><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=31>                  What horrible fancy's this?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech19><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=32>[To EMILIA]  Some of your function, mistress;</A><br>
<A NAME=33>Leave procreants alone and shut the door;</A><br>
<A NAME=34>Cough, or cry 'hem,' if any body come:</A><br>
<A NAME=35>Your mystery, your mystery: nay, dispatch.</A><br>
<p><i>Exit EMILIA</i></p>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech20><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=36>Upon my knees, what doth your speech import?</A><br>
<A NAME=37>I understand a fury in your words.</A><br>
<A NAME=38>But not the words.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech21><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=39>Why, what art thou?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech22><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=40>Your wife, my lord; your true</A><br>
<A NAME=41>And loyal wife.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech23><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=42>                  Come, swear it, damn thyself</A><br>
<A NAME=43>Lest, being like one of heaven, the devils themselves</A><br>
<A NAME=44>Should fear to seize thee: therefore be double damn'd:</A><br>
<A NAME=45>Swear thou art honest.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech24><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=46>Heaven doth truly know it.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech25><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=47>Heaven truly knows that thou art false as hell.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech26><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=48>To whom, my lord? with whom? how am I false?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech27><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=49>O Desdemona! away! away! away!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech28><b>DESDEMONA</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=50>Alas the heavy day! Why do you weep?</A><br>
<A NAME=51>Am I the motive of these tears, my lord?</A><br>
<A NAME=52>If haply you my father do suspect</A><br>
<A NAME=53>An instrument of this your calling back,</A><br>
<A NAME=54>Lay not your blame on me: If you have lost him,</A><br>
<A NAME=55>Why, I have lost him too.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech29><b>OTHELLO</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=56>Had it pleased heaven</A><br>
