Cassio. No, by my life and soul! Send for the man, and ask him. Sweet soul, take heed, Take heed of perjury; thou art on thy deathbed. Ay, but not yet to die. Yes, presently: Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin; For to deny each article with oath Cannot remove nor choke the strong conception That I do groan withal. Thou art to die. Then Lord have mercy on me! I say, amen. And have you mercy too! I never did Offend you in my life; never loved Cassio But with such general warranty of heaven As I might love: I never gave him token. By heaven, I saw my handkerchief in's hand. O perjured woman! thou dost stone my heart, And makest me call what I intend to do A murder, which I thought a sacrifice: I saw the handkerchief. He found it then; I never gave it him: send for him hither; Let him confess a truth. He hath confess'd. What, my lord? That he hath used thee. How? unlawfully? Ay. He will not say so. No, his mouth is stopp'd; Honest Iago hath ta'en order for't. O! my fear interprets: what, is he dead? Had all his hairs been lives, my great revenge Had stomach for them all. Alas! he is betray'd and I undone. Out, strumpet! weep'st thou for him to my face? O, banish me, my lord, but kill me not! Down, strumpet! Kill me to-morrow: let me live to-night! Nay, if you strive-- But half an hour! Being done, there is no pause. But while I say one prayer! It is too late. My lord, my lord! what, ho! my lord, my lord! What noise is this? Not dead? not yet quite dead? I that am cruel am yet merciful; I would not have thee linger in thy pain: So, so. What, ho! my lord, my lord! Who's there? O, good my lord, I would speak a word with you! Yes: 'tis Emilia. By and by. She's dead. 'Tis like she comes to speak of Cassio's death.-- The noise was here. Ha! no more moving? Still as the grave. Shall she come in? were't good?-- I think she stirs again:--no. What's best to do? If she come in, she'll sure speak to my wife: My wife! my wife! what wife? I have no wife. O insupportable! O heavy hour! Methinks it should be now a huge eclipse Of sun and moon,
