Othello you have done me wrong,"Preferment goes by letter and affection, not by the old gradation,where each second stood heir to the first. Now sir, be judge yourself whether I in any just term am affin'd to love the Moor" How dare you not go with the order which is accustomed to the military. You have done me wrong, now I will do wrong to you but "too early seen unknown, and known too late!" Chaos will ensue.
