OTHELLO ACT VI

(Othello and Desdemona return from the dead to the afterlife)
Othello: Oh my dear Desdemona, how could I be so blind, hath that villainous serpent, Iago to plant the seed of doubt within. You and I could be together, alive and well!
Desdemona: silence, my love. I trusted you, I had faith in you and I was true as my love with you. But love you, I can no longer.
Otherllo: NO!! prithee please, I need you, I lust for you, you alone, are all I need.
(THE DEVIL appears from hiding)
Devil: all you need you say?
Othello: by heaven. What foul being art thou?
Devil: by hell. Thou should say.
Othello: egads! Thou art the devil!
Devil: indeed, and you Othello, I believe we have to trade our wares now, come along, we don’t have all day.
Othello: NO, halt! What of Desdemona?
Devil: she was no quarrel with me, her deeds are of innocence and pure intent, she with heaven, and you with hell.
Othello: alas! I cannot be apart from my love. I must be with her and she with me.
Devil: all right, a challenge if you will. If she can return your affection within the next lunar cycle, then to her I release you. If you fail then to me your soul shall remain. Oh, on the offside, your tongue for the purpose of this challenge is MINE.

Othello: (Zounds) how to portray my love without speech!
(Iago appears)
Iago: how now, my most humble buffoon, what ails you?
Othello: you, I have no words to express the rage I suppress.
Iago: then speak no more. The deed is done, your life is in shambles. I’ve had my fun.
Othello: wretched dog!
(Othello strikes Iago)
Iago: (draws sword) how foul the mind’s occupation to strike one’s own apparition!
(Iago disappears)
(enter Cassio)
Cassio: Oh, how the fates turn in ways most obscure to see damned Othello alone, insecure.
Othello: cassio!
Cassio: no longer shall we converse like mortal men, I have your rank, remember?
Othello: rank? How dare you speak of rank in such ways. Tis you who is my lieutenant, always and forever.
Cassio: and tis you who is dead, always and forever.
Othello: zounds! What be thought purpose foul apparition to make jipes of the mad moor? To amuse your wretchedness with my rank.
Cassio: I come to converse and simply that.
Iago: as do i.
Othello: what? Not you again.
Iago: I hear your speech loud and clear. But shall Desdemona?
Cassio: I do not believe so, his tongue is be witched by the devil, there is no solution to this.
Othello: how now to love without my speech!
Cassio: tis a lesson we mean to teach, I’ll do it for the love I bear to you and your wife.
Iago: I’ll do it for the joy of your further ruining your life.
Othello: then it is agreed for now, I am yours to lead.
(enter Desdemona and Emilia)
Desdemona: oh emilia, could it be?
Emilia: yes my mistress. Tis I yours truly.
Desdemona: how I missed you so, If I could so take back the cruel sands of time, I would do so, im so sorry. (sobs)
Emilia: cry not, Desdemona. Twas the sons of Adam, our husbands, who used us as they saw fit.
Desdemona: what shall we do now? In life we live to serve our brides, but in death what better than to stand idle, till the very ground on which we stand turns to dust and us with it?
Emilia: to turn to dust, would take sooner than to please my other, I say we enjoy ourselves as women free from their shackles.
Desdemona: but what of Othello, iago, even surely no mortal soul should spend a life in the devil’s domain. Never would I bring my worst enemy to the infernal gate.
Emilia: Othello deserves what fate had dealth to him and all his villainy, let the scourge of women burn like charcoal that his complexion doth match, as far Iago, I believe that the sooner he returns to plane he was conceived the better for us all.
Desdemona: how could you say such a thing! You loved him.
Emilia: as did he, who knew that impaling your partner wasn’t a sign of affection.
(Enter cassio, iago , Othello, exit Emilia, Desdemona.)
Othello: we must hurry, time is almost up, and Desdemona awaits. Iago, are you certain that she will return my affection through the act of kissing her arse?
Iago: heaven’s no fool, what ridiculous tale did you imagine such an act?
Othello: (zounds) are you certain you are here to lend aid?
Iago: (thinks for a bit) no.
Othello: Cassio!
Cassio: well, do what your heart requests. If she firmly love thou, like thout thinks’t, then words are wind and actions be like that glass that reveal the heart.
Othello: but what action mirrors that of true love?
Cassio: but a kiss!
Othello: indeed, it is agreed. Heavens she approaches.
(enter Desdemona and Emilia)
Othello: desde----
(cassio covers his mouth)
Aside cassio: oh the poor moor forgets the deal he made, a second chance for his tongue was the trade.
Desdemona: Othello, what is it? Have you come to bid me farewell?
Othello: (shakes his head and signals to come close)
Desdemona: (nears)
Emilia: (grabs desdemona’s arm) wait my mistress, this seems rather odd, he speaks without speech, I mistrust these actions.
Desdemona: dear Othello, speak prithee, I wish to your voice one last time.
Othello: (Othello attempts a kiss)
Desdemona: how now Othello, unhold me prithee please!
Iago: (snickers)
Cassio: (whispers to Othello) my lord, perhaps a more subtle approach.
Othello (aside): zounds. She does not reflect my actions as planned.
Othello (kisses Emilia desperately)
(Emilia stunned) (Desdemona in shock)
Desdemona: Othello, why! My love, you could you would the heart that remained bound to yours!?
(devil appears)
Devil: congratulations! Your sol is saved, to heaven with you go, the path is paved.

    To begin with, the devil’s tricks have been taken by human beings throughout the history of mankind. The Devil often ask for ones soul in exchange for riches and necessities that make the person to accept the deal because it is almost impossible to retract the offer. This archetype of devil has been seen in many different stories, in many different cultures. In this story the devil takes a major participation because he is pushing tom walker to take the deal. The devil is often to make many and different temptations in order to achieve his goal. Tom Walker is a contrast to other characters that appear in these stories because he has no fear towards the devil, due to his daily fights with the wife.

    Within Act 5, Scene 2 of the Shakespearian play Othello, Lodovico tells Othello he is to lose command and Cassio will become the governor of Cyrpus instead. Subsequently, Othello is to be held prison and will await trial. It is from this point in the play that Othello protests his great service to Venice. From lines 338 to 356, Othello states his final speech before ultimately taking his own life. Here, Othello expresses his grief over what he has done feeling a strong sense of sin in his actions. His ego is still intact however as he mentions that he has done a great deed to the state despite the overshadowing for his act. Othello reaffirms his position as a figure who is simultaneously included and excluded from Venetian Society. Apparent in his final statement, he uses contradictions to explain his mental state before and after the manipulation of Iago. Another aspect revealed is the extent to which his sins have affected him and how he longs for the battles that helped him woo Desdemona’s love through his heroic stories.…

    | Here we see just how manipulative and scheming Iago truly is. Iago knows that Cassio is an angry drunk, thus will likely get into a brawl, and this is exactly why Iago plans to get Cassio drunk, despite Cassio refusing multiple times. Iago wants Cassio to get on the bad side of Othello, because he knows that Desdemona will intervene, and help Cassio. Iago has already planted a seed of doubt in Othello’s mind about Desdemona being unfaithful, and he knows that when Desdemona stands up for Cassio, that it will just add to Othello’s jealousy and suspicion.…

    The Inquisitorial vengeance had been hurried by my two-fold escape, and there was to be no more dallying with the King of Terrors. As the logenze came together more and more, I could feel the heat jumping off the walls. I stood there, not knowing of my death: restraint or into the pit of endless panic-stricken stories humans could die at the discern of. The devil eyes that have stared at me with phlogiston before, had a look of trepidation struck once again in the devilish depths of their pupils. Sparks had seeped over the walls of hell. An inferno had oozed over and into my dungeon, my dungeon surrounded by a sea of flames in an abyss of Hades. A combust had percolated up my props, letting the sultriness corrode my skin as the linen of my garments had cauterized into the film of my own - scraps intertwined with my the skin of mine, sinking into the fast flowing red sea of my own, the pang had writhed itself around my soul, allowing the pain of being speared slowly, pacing itself into my heart, as a blood curdling scream waved out of my lungs, creating a oxidizing hell of a throe, soring itself around the insides. Sparks had got their fingers onto the follicles of the diminutive devils -- these devils had their torches stripped from their grasp: furiated. I was being enclosed by the rats, bringing pressure to my bag of bones unable to bear upon into, into, into -- into the The Pit. Slowly, I traipsed toward the rear, surely, descending into The Pit.…

    "She loved me for the dangers I had pass'd, and I loved her that she did pity them" (Othello, I.iii 166-167).

    When Desdemona tries to convince her husband that Cassio should be forgiven, Othello expresses his opinion ““Excellent wretch! Perdition catch my soul/But I do love thee; and when I love thee not, Chaos is come again” (line 90). This is dramatic irony as later on Othello will stop loving Desdemona and because of this he falls in a chaotic madness.…
