- {Enter DUKE FREDERICK, Lords, and OLIVER.}
-
- DUKE FREDERICK: Not see him since? Sir, sir, that cannot be:
- But were I not the better part made mercy,
- I should not seek an absent argument
- Of my revenge, thou present. But look to it:
- Find out thy brother, wheresoe'er he is;
- Seek him with candle; bring him dead or living
- Within this twelvemonth, or turn thou no more
- To seek a living in our territory.
- Thy lands and all things that thou dost call thine
- Worth seizure do we seize into our hands, 10
- Till thou canst quit thee by thy brothers mouth
- Of what we think against thee.
-
- OLIVER: O that your highness knew my heart in this!
- I never loved my brother in my life.
-
- DUKE FREDERICK: More villain thou. Well, push him out of doors;
- And let my officers of such a nature
- Make an extent upon his house and lands:
- Do this expediently and turn him going.
-
- [Exeunt.]
