3.  Reread the passage below, and in your own words, explain Iago's plan.  

"Now will I question Cassio of Bianca, 
110 A housewife that by selling her desires Buys herself bread and clothes: it is a creature That dotes on Cassio; as 'tis the strumpet's plague To beguile many and be beguiled by one: He, when he hears of her, cannot refrain 
115 From the excess of laughter. Here he comes: 
Re-enter CASSIO. 
As he shall smile, Othello shall go mad; And his unbookish jealousy must construe Poor Cassio's smiles, gestures and light behavior, Quite in the wrong."
