| ACT III SCENE I | A room in the palace. | |
| | 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: | 5 |
| | 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 | 10 |
| | Worth seizure do we seize into our hands, | |
| | 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. | 15 |
| 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 | |
