Our stars, Richard Widmark, Kathy Lewis, and 00:32.800 --> 00:33.800 Elliott Lewis. 00:33.800 --> 00:41.440 Hi, Harlow. Doing some gardening? 00:41.440 --> 00:44.160 Yes, sir, Hap, and here's my favorite plant. 00:44.160 --> 00:46.520 Well, that's an Auto Light staple battery. 00:46.520 --> 00:51.680 Sure, the power plant for quick, dependable starts. And unlike other plants, this one 00:51.680 --> 00:54.280 needs water only three times a year in normal car use. 00:54.280 --> 00:55.960 Now it's a daisy, Harlow. 00:55.960 --> 00:58.880 And fern away the best battery blooming. 00:58.880 --> 01:01.880 It never gets bushed, eh, Harlow? 01:01.880 --> 01:07.200 Right. The Auto Light staple is tougher than a cactus. Fiberglass retaining mats protect 01:07.200 --> 01:11.480 every positive plate to reduce shedding and flaking, and give that famous battery longer 01:11.480 --> 01:16.920 life as proved by tests conducted according to accepted life cycle standards. So visit 01:16.920 --> 01:21.400 your Auto Light battery dealer, the expert who services all makes of batteries. To locate 01:21.400 --> 01:25.320 him quickly, phone Western Union by number and ask for operator 25. 01:25.320 --> 01:29.640 I'll gladly tell you the name of your nearest Auto Light battery dealer, where you can get 01:29.640 --> 01:34.480 an Auto Light staple, the battery that needs water only three times a year in normal car 01:34.480 --> 01:35.480 use. 01:35.480 --> 01:40.160 And remember, from bumper to tail light, you're always right with Auto Light. 01:40.160 --> 01:46.240 And now, Auto Light presents transcribed part two of William Shakespeare's Othello, starring 01:46.240 --> 01:53.400 Richard Widmark as the Argo, Kathy Lewis as Desdemona, and Elliot Lewis as the Moor, hoping 01:53.400 --> 02:08.000 once again to keep you in suspense. 02:08.000 --> 02:13.280 The scene is Cyprus. Othello has returned triumphant from the wars, now to govern the 02:13.280 --> 02:18.240 island with his wife, Desdemona. The ensign, the Argo, jealous of the position held by 02:18.240 --> 02:31.720 Cassio, lieutenant to Othello, plots revenge on both Cassio and the Moor, whom he hates. 02:31.720 --> 02:37.840 Two things are to be done. My wife Amelia must move for Cassio to her mistress, Desdemona. 02:37.840 --> 02:44.120 I'll set her on, myself the while to draw the Moor apart, and bring him jump when he 02:44.120 --> 02:58.560 may Cassio find soliciting his wife. Ah, that's the way. Dull not devise by coldness and delay. 02:58.560 --> 03:03.080 In happy time, Argo. You have not been a-bed then, Cassio? Why, no, the day had broke before 03:03.080 --> 03:08.520 we parted. I've made boldly, Argo, to send into your wife. My suit to her is that she 03:08.520 --> 03:14.240 will to virtuous Desdemona procure me some access. And I'll devise a mean to draw the 03:14.240 --> 03:18.840 Moor out of the way, that your converse and business may be more free. I humbly thank 03:18.840 --> 03:24.160 you for it. I never knew a Florentine more kind and honest. 03:24.160 --> 03:31.560 Good morrow, good lieutenant. I'm sorry for your displeasure, but all will sure be well. 03:31.560 --> 03:38.160 I will bestow you where you shall have time to speak your bosom freely. I am much bound 03:38.160 --> 03:57.560 to you. Be assured, good Cassio, I will do all my abilities in your behalf. Bounteous 03:57.560 --> 04:02.480 madam, whatever shall become of Michael Cassio is never anything but your true servant. 04:02.480 --> 04:08.800 Oh, sir, I thank you. Before Amelia here, I give you warrant of your place. Be assured, 04:08.800 --> 04:13.920 if I do vow of friendship, I'll perform it to the last article. My lord shall never rest. 04:13.920 --> 04:19.920 I'll intermingle everything he does with Cassio's suit. Therefore be merry, Cassio, for I should 04:19.920 --> 04:23.560 rather die than give your cause away. Madam, here comes my lord. 04:23.560 --> 04:28.640 Madam, I'll take my leave. Why stay and hear me speak? Madam, not now. I'm very ill at 04:28.640 --> 04:44.680 ease, unfit for my own purpose. I'll do your discretion. 04:44.680 --> 04:47.840 I like not that. What do you say? 04:47.840 --> 04:55.240 Nothing, my lord, or if I know not what. Was not that Cassio parted from my wife? 04:55.240 --> 04:59.880 Cassio, my lord? No, sure, I cannot think it that he would sneak away so guilty like 04:59.880 --> 05:02.840 seeing you coming. I do believe to see. 05:02.840 --> 05:07.960 How now, my lord? I have been talking with a suitor here, a man that languishes in your 05:07.960 --> 05:09.560 displeasure. Who is it you mean? 05:09.560 --> 05:15.360 Why, your lieutenant Cassio. Good, my lord, if I have any grace or power to move you, 05:15.360 --> 05:18.640 I pray you call him back. Went he hence now? 05:18.640 --> 05:24.120 Yes, faith so humble that he has left part of his griefs with me, I suffer with him. Good 05:24.120 --> 05:27.320 love, call him back. Not now, sweet Desdemona, some other time. 05:27.320 --> 05:29.400 But shall be shortly. The sooner, sweet, for you. 05:29.400 --> 05:31.280 Shall be tonight for supper. No, not tonight. 05:31.280 --> 05:34.240 Tomorrow dinner, then. I shall not dine at home. I meet the captains 05:34.240 --> 05:37.040 at the citadel. Why then, tomorrow night, or Tuesday morning, 05:37.040 --> 05:40.240 on Tuesday morning, or night, or Wednesday morning, name the time, but let it not exceed 05:40.240 --> 05:45.640 three days. In faith he is penitent. When shall he come? Tell me, Othello. 05:45.640 --> 05:50.080 No more, let him come when he will. I will deny you nothing. Whereon I do beseech you 05:50.080 --> 05:54.280 grant me this to leave me but a little to myself. Shall I deny you? 05:54.280 --> 05:56.560 No. Farewell, my lord. 05:56.560 --> 05:59.480 Farewell, my Desdemona. I'll come to thee straight. 05:59.480 --> 06:07.280 Amelia, come. Perdition, catch my soul, but I do love thee. 06:07.280 --> 06:13.640 And when I love thee not, chaos is come again. My noble lord. 06:13.640 --> 06:18.880 What do you say, Iago? Did Michael Cassio, when you wooed my lady, 06:18.880 --> 06:22.200 know of your love? He did from first to last. Why do you ask? 06:22.200 --> 06:25.120 But for a satisfaction of my thoughts, no further harm. 06:25.120 --> 06:29.400 Why of your thought, Iago? I did not think he had been acquainted with 06:29.400 --> 06:32.000 her. Oh, yes, and went between us very often. 06:32.000 --> 06:37.440 Indeed. Indeed, I indeed. Do you discern aught in that? 06:37.440 --> 06:40.000 Is he not honest? Honest, my lord? 06:40.000 --> 06:44.320 Honest, I honest. My lord, for aught I know. 06:44.320 --> 06:47.560 What do you think? Think, my lord? 06:47.560 --> 06:51.880 Think, my lord. Why, heaven, he echoes me. As if there was some monster in his thought 06:51.880 --> 06:54.800 too hideous to be shown. You meant something, I heard you say, but 06:54.800 --> 06:58.820 now you liked not that when Cassio left my wife. 06:58.820 --> 07:02.920 What did you not like? If you do love me, show me thy thought. 07:02.920 --> 07:06.240 My lord, you know I love you. I think you do. 07:06.240 --> 07:10.080 And for I know you are full of love and honesty, and weigh your words before you give him breath. 07:10.080 --> 07:12.240 Therefore these stops of yours frighten me the more. 07:12.240 --> 07:15.520 For Michael Cassio, I dare be sworn I think that he is honest. 07:15.520 --> 07:18.320 I think so too. Men should be what they seem. 07:18.320 --> 07:22.520 Certain men should be what they seem. Why, then I think Cassio is an honest man. 07:22.520 --> 07:26.520 Nay, yet there is more in this. I prithee speak to me as to thy thinking. 07:26.520 --> 07:30.880 Good, my lord, pardon me. Though I am bound to every act of duty, I am not bound to that 07:30.880 --> 07:36.640 all slaves are free to. Utter my thoughts. Why, say they are vile and false. 07:36.640 --> 07:40.840 You conspire against your friend, Iago, if you but think him wronged, and make his ear 07:40.840 --> 07:44.280 a stranger to your thoughts. It were not for your quiet nor your good, nor 07:44.280 --> 07:47.520 for my manhood, honesty, or wisdom to let you know my thoughts. 07:47.520 --> 07:51.600 By heaven, I'll know your thought. Oh, beware, my lord, of jealousy. 07:51.600 --> 07:55.120 It is the green-eyed monster which doth mock that meat it feeds on. 07:55.120 --> 07:59.640 Why, why is this? Do you think I'd make a life of jealousy? 07:59.640 --> 08:05.480 No, Iago, I see before I doubt. When I doubt, prove, and on the proof, there 08:05.480 --> 08:08.120 is no more but this, away at once with love or jealousy. 08:08.120 --> 08:11.800 I am glad of it. For now I shall have reason to show the love 08:11.800 --> 08:18.080 and duty that I bear you with franker spirit. Therefore, as I am bound, receive it from 08:18.080 --> 08:20.800 me. Look to your wife. 08:20.800 --> 08:25.240 Serve her well with Casio. Wear your eye thus, not jealous nor secure. 08:25.240 --> 08:30.080 I would not have your free and noble nature out of self-bounty be abused. 08:30.080 --> 08:32.640 Look to it. Do you say so? 08:32.640 --> 08:37.080 She did deceive her father, marrying you, and when she seemed to shake and fear your 08:37.080 --> 08:41.160 looks, she loved them most. And so she did. 08:41.160 --> 08:45.880 I see this hath a little dashed your spirits. Not a jot, not a jot. 08:45.880 --> 08:51.560 My faith, I fear it has. I hope you will consider what is spoke comes from my love. 08:51.560 --> 08:56.160 But I do see your mood. I pray you not to strain my speech to grosser 08:56.160 --> 08:59.920 issues, nor to larger reach than to suspicion. I will not. 08:59.920 --> 09:03.960 Should you do so, my lord, my speech should fall into such vile success as my thoughts 09:03.960 --> 09:09.280 aim not at. Casio is my worthy friend. 09:09.280 --> 09:15.600 My lord, I see you are moved. No, not much moved. 09:15.600 --> 09:21.320 I do not think but Desdemona's honest. Long live she so, and long live you to think 09:21.320 --> 09:25.200 so. Farewell. 09:25.200 --> 09:36.120 If you do perceive more, let me know more. Set your wife Amelia to observe. 09:36.120 --> 09:41.240 Leave me, Iago. My lord, I take my leave. 09:41.240 --> 09:49.720 If she be false, oh, then heaven mocks itself. I'll not believe it. 09:49.720 --> 09:54.400 Oh, now, my dear Othello, your dinner and the generous islanders by you invited to attend 09:54.400 --> 09:57.000 your presence. I am to blame. 09:57.000 --> 10:00.520 Why is your speech so faint? Are you not well? 10:00.520 --> 10:04.360 I have a pain upon my forehead here. Faith that's with watching. 10:04.360 --> 10:06.360 Tulle away again. Let me but bind your head. 10:06.360 --> 10:16.040 Within this hour it will be well again. Your handkerchief is too little. 10:16.040 --> 10:20.720 Othello puts the handkerchief from him and Desdemona unwittingly drops it. 10:20.720 --> 10:24.080 Come, I'll go in with you. I am very sorry that you are not well. 10:24.080 --> 10:36.320 They exit, leaving Amelia alone in the garden. I'm glad I have found this handkerchief. 10:36.320 --> 10:43.240 This was her first remembrance from the moor. In recent days my wayward husband has a hundred 10:43.240 --> 10:47.840 times wooed me to steal it. But she so loves the token, for Othello conjured 10:47.840 --> 10:52.920 her she should ever keep it, that she reserves it evermore about her to kiss and talk to. 10:52.920 --> 10:57.440 How now? What are you here alone? 10:57.440 --> 11:01.680 Do not, you chide. I have a thing for you. 11:01.680 --> 11:06.240 A thing for me? What will you give me now for that same handkerchief? 11:06.240 --> 11:09.680 What handkerchief? What handkerchief? 11:09.680 --> 11:15.120 Why that the moor first gave to Desdemona, that which so often you did bid me steal? 11:15.120 --> 11:18.040 Has stolen it from her? No, faith. 11:18.040 --> 11:21.960 She let it drop by negligence, and to the advantage I being here took it up. 11:21.960 --> 11:25.640 Look, here it is. A good wench. 11:25.640 --> 11:28.120 Give it me. What will you do with it that you have been 11:28.120 --> 11:32.000 so earnest to have me filch it? Why, what's that to you? 11:32.000 --> 11:36.480 If it be not for some purpose of import, give it me again. 11:36.480 --> 11:38.760 Poor lady, she'll run mad when she shall lack it. 11:38.760 --> 11:49.760 I have use for it. Go, leave me. 11:49.840 --> 11:54.960 I will in Cassio's lodging lose this handkerchief and let him find it. 11:54.960 --> 12:00.620 Trifles light as air are to the jealous confirmation strong as proofs of holy writ. 12:00.620 --> 12:06.320 This may do something. The moor already changes with my poison. 12:06.320 --> 12:08.360 I did say so. Look where he comes. 12:08.360 --> 12:12.120 False to me. To me? 12:12.120 --> 12:16.520 Why, how now, general? No more of that. Be gone, you've set me on the rack. 12:16.520 --> 12:19.200 I swear it is better to be much abused than but to know a little. 12:19.200 --> 12:22.040 I am sorry to hear this. Villain! 12:22.040 --> 12:26.120 Be sure thou prove my love a-strumpet. Be sure of it. 12:26.120 --> 12:29.560 Give me the ocula proof, or by the worth of man's eternal soul 12:29.560 --> 12:32.160 you'd better have been born a dog than answer my wake wrath. 12:32.160 --> 12:34.920 Just come to this. Make me to see it. 12:34.920 --> 12:37.400 I'll have some proof. I'll not endure it. 12:37.400 --> 12:42.440 I see, sir, you are eaten up with passion. I do repent me that I put it to you. 12:42.440 --> 12:46.280 You would be satisfied. Would nay, I will. 12:46.280 --> 12:51.800 Give me a living reason she's disloyal. I do not like the office. 12:51.800 --> 12:55.600 But since I am entered into this cause so far, pricked to it by foolish honesty and 12:55.600 --> 13:00.480 love, I will go on. With Cassio lately, and being troubled with 13:00.480 --> 13:04.640 a raging tooth, I could not sleep. There are a kind of men so loose of soul that 13:04.640 --> 13:10.760 in their sleep will mutter their affairs. One of this kind is Cassio. 13:10.760 --> 13:17.920 In sleep I heard him say, Sweet Desdemona, let us be wary. 13:17.920 --> 13:21.600 Let us hide our love. And then, sir, would he grip and wring my 13:21.600 --> 13:26.200 hand, cry out, Sweet creature, and then kiss me hard as if he plucked up kisses by the 13:26.200 --> 13:32.160 roots that grew upon my lips, and then cried, Cursed fate that gave thee to the more. 13:32.160 --> 13:33.160 Monstrous! Monstrous! 13:33.160 --> 13:40.720 It is a shrewd doubt, though it be but a dream. And this may help to thicken other proofs 13:40.720 --> 13:43.400 that do demonstrate thin rate. Tear her to pieces. 13:43.400 --> 13:48.280 Nay, but be wise, yet we see nothing done. She may be honest yet. 13:48.280 --> 13:52.600 Tell me but this. Have you not sometimes seen a handkerchief spotted with strawberries in 13:52.600 --> 13:55.120 your wife's hand? I gave her such a one. It was my first gift. 13:55.120 --> 13:58.960 I know not that. But such a handkerchief, I'm sure it was your wife's. 13:58.960 --> 14:05.040 Did I today see Cassio wipe his beard with? If be that. 14:05.040 --> 14:09.920 If be that, or any that was hers, it speaks against her with the other proofs. 14:09.920 --> 14:16.760 Now do I see tis true. O bloody Aga! Blood! 14:16.760 --> 14:24.120 And witness that here Iago does give up the execution of his wit, hands, heart, to wrong 14:24.120 --> 14:31.360 Dothello's service. Let him command. And to obey shall be in me remorse what bloody business 14:31.360 --> 14:36.880 ever. I will upon the instant put you to it. Within 14:36.880 --> 14:43.080 these three days let me hear you say that Cassio's not alive. 14:43.080 --> 14:48.520 My friend is dead. Tis done at your request. But let her live. 14:48.520 --> 14:56.040 Damn her! Luden Minx! Damn her! Come, go with me apart. I will withdraw to furnish 14:56.040 --> 15:01.600 me with some swift means of death for the fair devil. 15:01.600 --> 15:22.800 Now art thou my lieutenant. I am your own. Forever. 15:22.800 --> 15:28.200 Auto Light is bringing you Richard Woodmark, Cathy Lewis, and Elliot Lewis in part two 15:28.200 --> 15:34.400 of William Shakespeare's Othello.

And what's the name again, Harlow? 16:22.280 --> 16:26.920 Where the auto lights stay full, the battery that says right on the case needs water only 16:26.920 --> 16:32.480 three times a year in normal car use. Friends, to quickly locate your nearest auto light 16:32.480 --> 16:37.680 battery dealer, just phone Western Union by number and ask for operator 25. 16:37.680 --> 16:43.280 I'll gladly tell you his name and address.

This hand is moist, my lady. 17:32.080 --> 17:34.960 It yet has felt no age, nor known no sorrow. 17:34.960 --> 17:42.280 Hot, hot, and moist.
