IAGO
I’ll send her to you presently,
And I’ll devise a mean to draw the Moor
Out of the way, that your converse and business
May be more free.
|
IAGO
I’ll send her out to you now. I’ll think of
a plan to get the Moor out of the way, so you can speak more
openly.

EMILIA
Good morrow, good Lieutenant. I am sorry
For your displeasure, but all will sure be well.
The general and his wife are talking of it,
And she speaks for you stoutly. The Moor replies
That he you hurt is of great fame in Cyprus
And great affinity, and that in wholesome wisdom
He might not but refuse you. But he protests he loves you
And needs no other suitor but his likings
To take the safest occasion by the front
To bring you in again.
|
EMILIA
Good morning, lieutenant. I’m sorry about what
happened, but I’m sure everything will turn out all
right. The general and his wife are talking about it now, and
she’s defending you strongly. The Moor says the man you
hurt is very important in Cyprus, and that under the circumstances
he has no choice but to refuse to reinstate you. But he says he
still loves and respects you, and based on his own feelings alone
he’s looking for an opportunity to safely take you
back.

CASSIO
Yet I beseech you,
If you think fit, or that it may be done,
Give me advantage of some brief discourse
With Desdemona alone.

CASSIO
Please find a way to give me some time alone with Desdemona, if
you think that’s all right.

EMILIA
Pray you come in.
I will bestow you where you shall have time
To speak your bosom freely.
|
EMILIA
Please come in. I’ll take you to a place where you can
speak freely.

you.

Thank you very much.
