_ ACT II SCENE II
A street.

[Enter a Herald with a proclamation; people following.]

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