“Thus do I ever make my fool my purse;/ For I mine own gained knowledge should profane /
If I would time expend with such snipe/But for my sport and profit. I ate the Moor,/ And it is thought abroad that ‘twixt my sheets/ H’ as done me office. I know not if’t be true,/ But I, for mere suspicion in that kind,/ Will do, as if for surety. He holds me well:/ The better shall my purpose work him. “ (1.3 27)
This quote vividly demonstrates how Iago is the embodiment of evil within the play. Iago admits to himself how he is using Rodrigo. Prior to this Iago lectures Rodrigo for the second time, on how he should deal with his inability to marry Othello’s wife. Iago is exploiting Rodrigo’s desperation. Iago will keep manipulating people until he is confronted. Eventually living a lie catches up with you and the same befall Iago. He will be exposed.
What will Iago use Rodrigo’s money for?
