Marriage Guidance: Looking at Othello's soliloquy, lines 260-279, imagine that he is consulting with a marriage counsellor at this point in the story. One partner reads Othello's speech as it appears in the text, the other, "the counsellor" provides suitable, down to earth advice. For example:

Othello: "This fellow's of exceeding honesty."
Guidance Counsellor: Are you really sure? I mean, how do you know that he's 100 percent trustworthy?
Othello: "he knows all qualities, with a learned spirit of human beings..."

Hawking Imagery:
In Elizabethan times, trained hawks were often used to hunt prey, as a courtly pursuit.
In his soliloquy about Desdemona, Othello uses a number of hawking images.  Identify these images in his soliloquy, and write a paragraph for your journals about how appropriate or inappropriate you find this image to be. Does it show character and mood? Does it reveal anything about the way Othello regards marriage?
