R Goats and ...

From Othello, William Shakespeare (4.1.300). These words mark the point at which Iago has convinced Othello that his wife has been unfaithful to him and he decides to return to Venice, where he will eventually kill Desdemona and himself. (Also hints forward to Shylock, who uses the goats in the Bible to justify usury.)
