“Nobody, I myself. Farewell. Commend me to my kind lord. Oh farewell,” (Shakespeare V.ii.123-124). Desdemona tries to save Othello even at her death. Emilia is the witness to just about every noteworthy aspect of this play. She knows how to disprove that Desdemona is a whore and she witnesses her death. This ending scene proves both Othello’s and Desdemona’s love for each other. Othello admits he has killed her to ensure she does not get any blame. Desdemona tries to save Othello by claiming that she has killed herself. How is it that the one man who Iago was trying to blame does not die? Cassio lives. Cassio realizes that Othello might kill himself but did not realize he had a sword to do so with so he does not stop him. Iago in the end is caught because of his wife and Rodrigo’s note in his pockets.
