The meat it feeds on. That cuckold lives in bliss Who, certain of his fate, loves not his wronger, But, oh, what damnèd minutes tells he o'er 175Who dotes, yet doubts— suspects, yet soundly loves! Iago says that the worst fate for a man is to have a cheating wife and know about it.
Foul disproportions, thoughts unnatural.
240But—pardon me—I do not in position
Distinctly speak of her, though I may fear
Her will, recoiling to her better judgment,
May fall to match you with her country forms,
And happily repent.
Iago talks about women like Desdemona having "rank desires" .
