Othello bemoans being known by others as the dreaded "cuckold" or man whose wife cheats on him. Othello laments that he would rather be treated like Job in the old Testament rather than suffer the indignity of a woman's infidelity.
To try me with affliction, had they rained All kinds of sores and shames on my bare head, Steeped me in poverty to the very lips, Given to captivity me and my utmost hopes, I should have found in some place of my soul A drop of patience.
