Help me paraphrase this
Shakespeare drew on his knowledge of falconry in a number of plays. A
famous instance occurs in Othello, where the Moor compares himself and
Desdemona to falconer and falcon as he speculates about Desdemona's
alleged adultery with Cassio (3.3.260-263, The Riverside Shakespeare). But
it has not been noted that later in the play, Shakespeare returns very briefly,
but tellingly, to that metaphor with the word "cope" (4.1.86). Reviewing these
passages enables the reader to appreciate better the depth, subtlety, and flexi-
bility of Shakespeare's language as he develops the play's characters and
meaning.

I agree with Clive, it's a good idea to just quote this and acknowledge the source: Quoting, Paraphrasing, and Acknowledging Sources.
