<human>:  Would Othello be Shakespeare's play to buy Scheherazade most time with king?
<bot>: No, Othello is not a play by Shakespeare. Scheherazade was a character in Middle Eastern folklore that delayed her execution by telling the king long stories. Shakespeare's play Othello contained 26,450 words. Hamlet is Shakespeare's longest play consisting of 4000 lines and 30,000 words. So Hamlet would be the play to buy Scheherazade the most time with the King.
