DEFINITELY THE ORIGINAL TEXT FROM THE LOST FOLIO

My favourite part of Othello, shortly after the titular character smothers Desdemona with a pillow (spoiler alert!) and the maid Emilia finds her breathing her last:


             EMILIA
123       Oh no, you're dying, Desdemona! Who did this to you?

             DESDEMONA
124       Nobody. I did it. Peace out.

[she dies]

             OTHELLO
125       Crap, why is she dead?

             EMILIA
126      Dunno.

             OTHELLO
127       Well, like she said, I didn't do it.

             EMILIA
128       She did say that.

             OTHELLO
129       ...She's a big liar, I definitely killed her!

             EMILIA
130       Aw, you're an a-hole!
