Act V

Emilia
Thou dost belie her, and thou art a devil.
Othello
She was false as water.
Emilia
Thou art rash as fire, to say
That she was false: O, she was heavenly true!
Othello
Cassio did top her; ask thy husband else.
O, I were damn’d beneath all depth in hell,
But that I did proceed upon just grounds
To this extremity. Thy husband knew it all.
