Default Another RIDDLE

Hopefully this one will be easier

William Shakespeare is having drinks with a man who works for him. His butler comes in with drinks, and for some reason talks like a pirate:
"Arr fellow, ee arr go! Anything else?"
"Sea kelp" Shakespeare says.

What was the content of the Butler's secret message, and what did Shakespeare mean?

The Butler was having a stroke and Shakespeare told him to "seek help".

I don't know the plot of Othello but the butler saying "Othello Iago" in a pirate accent is something to do with it, I assume

...Iago thinks that Othello has slept with his wife so he’s just poisoned him with the tea because he’s a pretty nasty fellow...so he needs to seek help/medical help...?...is Shakespeare’s instruction...
