Othello by William Shakespeare
Act 2 - Scene 2
A street.
Herald : It is Othello's pleasure, our noble and valiant
[p]general, that, upon
certain tidings now arrived,
[p]importing the mere perdition of the
Turkish fleet,
[p]every man put himself into triumph; some to
dance,
[p]some to make bonfires, each man to what sport and
[p]revels
his addiction leads him: for, besides these
[p]beneficial news, it is
the celebration of his
[p]nuptial. So much was his pleasure should
be
[p]proclaimed. All offices are open, and there is full
[p]liberty
of feasting from this present hour of five
[p]till the bell have told
eleven. Heaven bless the
[p]isle of Cyprus and our noble general
Othello!
