Answer: In the last scene of Othello, it was seen that Desdemona is sleeping in her bedroom with a broken heart as her husband Othello had charged her of infidelity in love. Before sleeping, she spread her wedding bedsheet on the bed. Then Othello entered the room. Here he played the self-appointed dual role of judge and executioner. Before committing the murder of his wife, he for the last time, adored and loved Desdemona with kisses and also wept. Suddenly his wife awoke and discovered her husband in such condition. Othello’s mood took an unexpected turn and told her to pray and confess any hidden sin that she might have on her conscience. Also, he told her to be prepared for her death. Desdemona, though begged for her life, Othello cared nothing and alleged that she had gifted his token of love, a certain handkerchief to Cassio. Then Othello killed her strangling her with the bedsheet in a dramatic way.
