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. * Roderigo refers to Othello as a thicklips * Iago waking Brabantio to tell him of Desdemona’s elopement: Look to your house, your daughter and your bags! * Iago to Brabantio: an old black ram / Is topping your white ewe * Iago to Brabantio: the devil will make a grandsire of you * Iago to Brabantio: you'll / have your daughter covered with a Barbary horse * Iago to Brabantio: your daughter / and the Moor are now making the beast with two backs. * Roderigo tells Brabantio that Desdemona has escaped To the gross clasps of a lascivious Moor * Iago again on his duplicity (speaking of Othello):
Though I do hate him as I do hell-pains.
Yet, for necessity of present life,
I must show out a flag and sign of love,
Which is indeed but sign. * Brabantio on Desdemona’s elopement: How got she out? O treason of the blood! / Fathers, from hence trust not your daughters' minds / By what you see them act.
