ACT III.
SCENE I. _A room in the palace._
_Enter_ DUKE FREDERICK, Lords, _and_ OLIVER.
_Duke F._ 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; 5
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 brother’s mouth
Of what we think against thee.
_Oli._ O that your Highness knew my heart in this!
I never loved my brother in my life.
_Duke F._ More villain thou. Well, push him out of doors; 15
And let my officers of such a nature
Make an extent upon his house and lands:
Do this expediently and turn him going. [_Exeunt._

SCENE II. _The Forest._
_Enter_ ORLANDO, _with a paper_.
_Orl._ Hang there, my verse, in witness of my love:
And thou, thrice-crowned queen of night, survey
With thy chaste eye, from thy pale sphere above,
Thy huntress’ name that my full life doth sway.
O Rosalind! these trees shall be my books 5
And in their barks my thoughts I’ll character;
That every eye which in this forest looks
Shall see thy virtue witness’d every where.
Run, run, Orlando; carve on every tree
The fair, the chaste and unexpressive she. [_Exit._ 10
_Enter_ CORIN _and_ TOUCHSTONE.
_Cor._ And how like you this shepherd’s life, Master
Touchstone?
