IAGO

          At my lodging.



              RODERIGO
          I’ll be with thee betimes. [375]



              IAGO
          Go to, farewell:... do you hear, Roderigo?



              RODERIGO
          What say you?



              IAGO
          No more of drowning, do you hear?



              RODERIGO
          I am chang’d.



              IAGO

          Go to; farewell! put money enough in your purse. [380]
                                                                                                Exit Roderigo.
               Thus do I ever make my fool my purse:
               For I mine own gain’d knowledge should profane,
               If I would time expend with such a snipe,

               But for my sport and profit: I hate the Moor,
               And it is thought abroad, that ’twixt my sheets [385]
               He’s done my office; I know not if’t be true...

               Yet I, for mere 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, [390]
               To get this place, and to make up my will,

               A double knavery... how, how?... let me see,
               After some time, to abuse Othello’s ear,
               That he is too familiar with his wife:

               He has a person and a smooth dispose, [395]
               To be suspected, fram’d to make women false:
