Quote
Othello. let me see't!
Desdemona. Why, so I can; but I will not now....
Othello. Fetch me the handkerchief! ...
Desdemona. ...You'll never meet a more sufficient man--
Othello. The handkerchief! (78)
Signifiance
This shows where Othello's patience with Desdemona runs thin. The pestilance Iago whispered into his ear begins to flow through his brain. He begins to see how close Desdemona is to Cassio and the fact that Desdemona 'cannot find' her handkerchief that he gave her so long ago that had such sentimental meaning really pisses him off.
