Note III

I. 3. 370-374. The reading in the text is that of the second and third Quartos. The first Quarto has:

'Iag. Go to, farewell:—doe you heare Roderigo?

Rod. what say you?

Iag. No more of drowning, doe you heare?

Rod. I am chang'd. Exit Roderigo.

Iag. Goe to, farewell, put money enough in your purse:
Thus doe I euer make my foole my purse:'

The first Folio, followed substantially by the rest, reads:

'Iago. Go too, farewell. Do you heare, Rodorigo?

Rod. Ile sell all my Land. Exit.

Iago. Thus do I euer make my Foole, my purse:'

Rowe and Pope follow the Folios.

Theobald has:

'Iago. Go to, farewel. Do you hear, Rodorigo?

Rod. What say you?

Iago. No more of drowning, do you hear.

Rod. I am chang'd; I'll go sell all my land. [Exit.

Manet Iago.

Iago. Go to, farewel, put mony enough in your purse—
Thus, &c.'

Hanmer:

'Iago. Go to, farewel. Do you hear, Rodorigo?
No more of drowning.

Rod. I'll sell all my land. [Exit.

Scene xi.

Manet Iago.

Iago. Thus,' &c.

Warburton follows Theobald, and so does Johnson, except that he transfers 'Exit Rodorigo' to follow the first line of Iago's speech, and makes Scene XI. begin with the next. Capell reduces the whole to the following:

'Iag. Go to, farewel.

Rod. I'll sell all my land. [Exit.

Iag. Thus,' &c.
