Oth. The handkerchief![6151]
Des. In sooth, you are to blame.[6151][6153]
Emil. Is not this man jealous?[6151][6155] 100
Des. I ne'er saw this before.
Sure there's some wonder in this handkerchief:[6156]
I am most unhappy in the loss of it.[6157]
Emil. 'Tis not a year or two shows us a man:
They are all but stomachs and we all but food;[6158] 105
They eat us hungerly, and when they are full[6159]
They belch us. Look you, Cassio and my husband.
Enter Cassio and Iago.[6160]
Iago. There is no other way; 'tis she must do't:[6161]
And, lo, the happiness! go and importune her.
Des. How now, good Cassio! what's the news with you? 110
Cas. Madam, my former suit: I do beseech you
That by your virtuous means I may again[6162]
Exist, and be a member of his love
Whom I with all the office of my heart[6163]
Entirely honour: I would not be delay'd.[6164] 115
If my offence be of such mortal kind
That nor my service past nor present sorrows[6165]
Nor purposed merit in futurity
Can ransom me into his love again,
But to know so must be my benefit; 120
So shall I clothe me in a forced content
And shut myself up in some other course[6166]
To fortune's alms.[6167]
