Othello - Lines

Question 1

Exeunt OTHELLO and DESDEMONA

Answer 1

EMILIA
I am glad I have found this napkin:
This was her first remembrance from the Moor:
My wayward husband hath a hundred times
Woo’d me to steal it; but she so loves the token,
For he conjured her she should ever keep it,
That she reserves it evermore about her
To kiss and talk to. I’ll have the work ta’en out,
And give’t Iago: what he will do with it
Heaven knows, not I;
I nothing but to please his fantasy.

What handkerchief?
Why, that the Moor first gave to Desdemona;
That which so often you did bid me steal.

Question 6

IAGO

Hast stol’n it from her?

Answer 6

EMILIA
No, ‘faith; she let it drop by negligence.
And, to the advantage, I, being here, took’t up.
Look, here it is.

Question 7

IAGO
A good wench; give it me.
I needeth it. ‘Tis important.

Answer 7

EMILIA
What will you do with ‘t, that you have been
so earnest
To have me filch it?

Question 8

IAGO

[Snatching it] Why, what’s that to you?

Answer 8

EMILIA
If it be not for some purpose of import,
Give’t me again: poor lady, she’ll run mad
When she shall lack it.
