- {Enter a Herald with a proclamation; People

- 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 10
- till the bell have told eleven. Heaven bless the
- isle of Cyprus and our noble general Othello!
