Enter a Messenger.[5095]
Mess. The Ottomites, reverend and gracious,
Steering with due course toward the isle of Rhodes,
Have there injointed them with an after fleet.[5096] 35
First Sen. Ay, so I thought. How many, as you guess?[5097]
Mess. Of thirty sail: and now they do re-stem[5098]
Their backward course, bearing with frank appearance
Their purposes toward Cyprus. Signior Montano,[5099]
Your trusty and most valiant servitor, 40
With his free duty recommends you thus,[5100]
And prays you to believe him.[5101]
Duke. 'Tis certain then for Cyprus.
Marcus Luccicos, is not he in town?[5102]
First Sen. He's now in Florence. 45

First Sen. Here comes Brabantio and the valiant Moor.
Enter Brabantio, Othello, Iago, Roderigo, and Officers.[5104]
