DUKE

When remedies are past the griefs are ended
By seeing the worst which late on hopes depended.
To mourn a mischief that is past and gone
Is the next way to draw new mischief on.
What cannot be preserved when fortune takes,
Patience her injury a mockery makes.

“Let her have your voice.
Vouch with me, heaven, I therefore beg it not,
To please the palate of my appetite”

“I am hitherto your daughter: but here’s my husband;
And so much duty as my mother show’d
To you, preferring you before her father,
So much I challenge that I may profess
Due to the Moor, my lord.”

DESDEMONA.
I saw Othello's visage in his mind,
And to his honours and his valiant parts
Did I my soul and fortunes consecrate

OTHELLO
…of antres vast and deserts idle,
Rough quarries, rocks, and hills whose heads touch heaven,
It was my hint to speak—such was the process:
And of the Cannibals that each other eat,
The Anthropophagi, and men whose heads
Do grow beneath their shoulders.

Othello:
And till she come, as truly as to heaven
I do confess the vices of my blood
So justly to your grave ears I’ll present
How I did thrive in this fair lady’s love
And she in mine.
(I.3.139-143)

Over years, Othello "spoke of most disastrous chances" to his mentor's sympathetic daughter, Desdemona, who "wished that heaven had made her such a man" and "loved [him] for the dangers [he] had passed."

BRABANTIO

It is a judgement maimed and most imperfect
That will confess perfection so could err
Against all rules of nature, and must be driven
To find out practices of cunning hell
Why this should be.

OTHELLO

Rude am I in my speech,
And little blest with the soft phrase of peace . . .
And therefore little shall I grace my cause
In speaking for myself.

We must not think the Turk is so unskilful
To leave that latest which concerns him first,
Neglecting an attempt of ease and gain
To wake and wage a danger profitless.

Your daughter, if you have not given her leave,
I say again, hath made a gross revolt,
Tying her duty, beauty, wit and fortunes,
In an extravagant and wheeling stranger
Of here and everywhere.

For when my outward action doth demonstrate
The native act and figure of my heart
In compliment extern, ’tis not long after
But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve
For daws to peck at. I am not what I am.
