That Was My Lady's Death Analysis
That was my lady's voice.
I die a guiltless death.
Commend me to my kind lord.
How could she be murdered?
You heard her say herself, it was not i.
I must report the truth.
She has gone to burning hell.
It was I that killed her.
The more angel she, and you the blacker devil!
She turned to folly, and she was a whore.
You wrongly condemn her, and you are a devil.
She was false as water.
You are rash as fire, to say that she was false.
Let me be damned in the fiery pit in hell if,in doing this deed, I did not proceed upon just grounds.
Your husband knew it all.
That she was false to you?
It was he who told me first.
An honest man he is, who hates the slime that sticks on filthy deeds.
May his pernicious soul rot in hell!
She was too infatuated …show more content…
What did your song foretell?
I die with truth on my lips.
Here is my journey's end, here is my final destination.
Blow me about in winds!
Engulf me in liquid fire!
You must come with us as our prisoner and face trail by our senators.
I will embrace their verdict.
What can I say about you?
That's he that was Othello.
For I did nothing in hate, but all in honor.
Demand of that semi-devil why he ensnared my soul and body?
From this time on I never will speak a word.
Let the most cunning cruelty long torment him, the worst we can devise.
Othello you shall have justice.
A word or two before we go.
I have done the state some service, and they know it.
I pray you speak of me as I am, nothing extenuate, nor set down anything in malice.
Speak of one that loved not wisely, but too well.
Speak of one not easily jealous, but being worked into a passion by this villain was bewildered in the extreme.
Speak of one who threw a pearl away, richer than all the gold unmined.
Of one whose penitent eyes, although unused to cry, drop tears as fast as the Arabian trees their medicinal gum.
Write all this down, and say besides, that once, when a malignant Turk slandered our city, I took the circumcised dog by the throat, and struck him,
