SCENE I. The PALACE. Enter Duke, Lords, and Oliver.

Duke.
Not see him since?—Sir, Sir, that cannot be—
But were I not the better part made mercy,
I should not seek an absent argument3 note
Of my revenge, thee 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;
'Till thou canst quit thee by thy brother's mouth,
Of what we think against thee.

-- 48 --

Oli.
Oh, that your highness knew my heart in this:
I never lov'd my brother in my life.

Duke.
More villain thou. Well—Push him out of doors;
And let my offices of such a nature
Make an Extent upon his house and lands:
Do this expediently,4 note and turn him going.
[Exeunt.
