SCENE II

Table of Contents

[Enter a third Gentleman.]

THIRD GENTLEMAN

News, lads! our wars are done.

The desperate tempest hath so bang’d the Turks

That their designment halts; a noble ship of Venice

Hath seen a grievous wreck and sufferance

On most part of their fleet.

MONTANO

How! is this true?

THIRD GENTLEMAN

The ship is here put in,

A Veronessa; Michael Cassio,

Lieutenant to the warlike Moor Othello,

Is come on shore: the Moor himself’s at sea,

And is in full commission here for Cyprus.

MONTANO

I am glad on’t; ‘tis a worthy governor.

THIRD GENTLEMAN

But this same Cassio,—though he speak of comfort

Touching the Turkish loss,—yet he looks sadly,

And prays the Moor be safe; for they were parted

With foul and violent tempest.

MONTANO

Pray heavens he be;

For I have serv’d him, and the man commands

Like a full soldier. Let’s to the seaside, ho!

As well to see the vessel that’s come in

As to throw out our eyes for brave Othello,

Even till we make the main and the aerial blue

An indistinct regard.

THIRD GENTLEMAN

Come, let’s do so;

For every minute is expectancy

Of more arrivance.
