Desdemona: Your wife, my lord, your true
And loyal wife,
Othello: Come, swear it, damn thyself, Lest bring like one of heaven, the devil themselves Should fear to seize thee. Therefore be double damned: Swear thou art honest (36-39).
In these couple of lines here it is clear the amount of feelings these two have for one another. Desdemona openly says how devoted she is and "loyal" she is to Othello. It makes the play more sad to me that no one else around them can see the love they obviously have for one another. Why is it such a big deal that they be together. If race is the issue or shear jealously, it still does not justify the fact that two people so desperately in love be torn away from one another.
