[“Never, Iago. Like to the Pontic Sea]
“Never, Iago. Like to the Pontic Sea,Whose icy current and compulsive course
Ne'er feels retiring ebb, but keeps due on
To the Propontic and the Hellespont;
Even so my ‘frantic’ thoughts, with violent pace,
Shall ne'er look back, ne'er ebb to humble sense,
Till that a capable and wide revenge
Swallow them up.”
