rude am I in my speech

tear her all to pieces
strumpet
cunning whore of Venice
circumcised dog
Iago (reduced)
mere prattle without practice
i am not what i am
your daughter and your bags
old black ram
beast with two backs
nay but he prated
put money in thy purse
free and noble nature
pour this pestilence in his ear

ill warrant her full of game
you know i love you
i like not that
with her, on her what you will
strangle her in her bed
i do suspect this trash

say one prayer
a guiltless death i die
nobody i myself
