Marry, sir, by many a wind-instrument that I [10] know. But, masters, here’s
          money for you, and the general so likes your music, that he desires you, of all
          loves, to make no more noise with it.



              FIRST MUSICIAN
          Well sir, we will not.



              CLOWN
          If you have any music that may not be heard, [15] to’t again, but, as they

          say, to hear music, the general does not greatly care.



              FIRST MUSICIAN
          We ha’ none such, sir.



              CLOWN
          Then put your pipes in your bag, for I’ll away; go, vanish away! [20]
                                                                                          Exeunt musicians.



              CASSIO
          Dost thou hear my honest friend?



              CLOWN
          No, I hear not your honest friend, I hear you.



              CASSIO

          Prithee  keep  up  thy  quillets,  there’s  a  poor  piece  of  gold  for  thee:  if  the
          gentlewoman that attends the general’s wife be stirring, tell her there’s [25]
          one Cassio entreats her a little favour of speech... wilt thou do this?



              CLOWN
          She is stirring, sir, if she will stir hither, I shall seem to notify unto her.


                                                         Enter Iago.



              CASSIO
               Do, good my friend.

                                                                                                    Exit Clown.
