Nothing, my lord, or if − I know not what.



              OTHELLO
               Was not that Cassio parted from my wife?



              IAGO
               Cassio, my lord?... no, sure, I cannot think it,
               That he would sneak away so guilty-like, [40]
               Seeing you coming.



              OTHELLO
                               I do believe ’twas he.




              DESDEMONA
               How now, my lord?
               I have been talking with a suitor here,
               A man that languishes in your displeasure.



              OTHELLO
               Who is’t you mean? [45]



              DESDEMONA
               Why, your lieutenant, Cassio, good my lord,

               If I have any grace or power to move you,
               His present reconciliation take:
               For if he be not one that truly loves you,
               That errs in ignorance, and not in cunning, [50]

               I have no judgement in an honest face,
               I prithee call him back.



              OTHELLO
                               Went he hence now?



              DESDEMONA
               Yes, faith, so humbled,
               That he has left part of his griefs with me,

               I suffer with him; good love, call him back. [55]
