DESDEMONA My noble father, I do perceive here a divided duty: To you I am bound for life and education; My life and education both do learn me 200 How to respect you; you are the lord of duty,— I am hitherto your daughter: but here’s my husband; And so much duty as my mother show’d To you, preferring you before her father, So much I challenge that I may profess 205 Due to the Moor, my lord.
