SCENE XI.
Manet Iago.
Iago.
Go to, farewel, put mony enough in your purse—
Thus do I ever make my fool my purse;
For I mine own gain'd knowledge should profane,
-- 303 --
If I should time expend 8 notewith such a snipe,
But for my sport and profit. I hate the Moor,
And it is thought abroad, that 'twixt my sheets
He has done my office. I know not, if't be true—
But I, for meer suspicion in that kind,
Will do, as if for surety. He holds me well—
The better shall my purpose work on him;
Cassio's a proper man: let me see now;—
To get his place, and to plume up my Will,
A double knavery—How? how?—let's see—
After some time, t' abuse Othello's ear,
That he is too familiar with his wife—
He hath a person, and a smooth dispose,
To be suspected; fram'd to make women false.
The Moor is of a free and open nature,
That thinks men honest that but seem to be so;
And will as tenderly be led by th' nose,
As asses are:
I have't—it is ingendred—9 noteHell and Spite
Must bring this monstrous birth to the world's light.
