If he be absent, bring his brother to me;

I’ll make him find him. Do this suddenly;

And let not search and inquisition quail

To bring again these foolish runaways.

Exeunt.

Scene III

Enter Orlando and Adam, [meeting].

Orl.

Who’s there?

Adam.

What, my young master? O my gentle master,

O my sweet master, O you memory

Of old Sir Rowland! Why, what make you here?

Why are you virtuous? Why do people love you?

And wherefore are you gentle, strong, and valiant?

Why would you be so fond to overcome

The bonny priser of the humorous Duke?

Your praise is come too swiftly home before you.

Know you not, master, to [some] kind of men

Their graces serve them but as enemies?

No more do yours. Your virtues, gentle master,

Are sanctified and holy traitors to you.

O, what a world is this, when what is comely

Envenoms him that bears it!

[Orl.]

Why, what’s the matter?

Adam.

O unhappy youth,

Come not within these doors! Within this roof

The enemy of all your graces lives.

Your brother—no, no brother, yet the son
