Desdemona
Who's there? Othello?
Othello
Ay. Desdemona.
Desdemona
Will you come to bed, my lord?
Othello
Have you pray'd to-night, Desdemona?
Desdemona
Ay, my lord.
Othello
If you bethink yourself of any crime
Unreconciled as yet to heaven and grace,
Solicit for it straight.
Desdemona
Alas, my lord, what do you mean by that?
Othello
Well, do it, and be brief; I will walk by:
I would not kill thy unprepared spirit;
No; heaven forfend! I would not kill thy soul.

If it's good enough for Shakespeare! :)
