SEBASTIAN

               I am sorry, madam, I have hurt your kinsman:
               But had it been the brother of my blood,
               I must have done no less with wit and safety. [205]

               You throw a strange regard upon me, and by that
               I do perceive it hath offended you:
               Pardon me, sweet one, even for the vows
               We made each other but so late ago.



              DUKE
               One face, one voice, one habit, and two persons! [210]

               A natural perspective, that is, and is not!


              SEBASTIAN

               Antonio! O my dear Antonio,
               How have the hours rack’d and tortur’d me,
               Since I have lost thee!



              ANTONIO
               Sebastian are you?



              SEBASTIAN

                               Fear’st thou that, Antonio? [215]


              ANTONIO

               How have you made division of yourself?
               An apple cleft in two is not more twin
               Than these two creatures. Which is Sebastian?



              OLIVIA
               Most wonderful!



              SEBASTIAN
               Do I stand there? I never had a brother; [220]

               Nor can there be that deity in my nature
               Of here and everywhere. I had a sister,
               Whom the blind waves and surges have devour’d:
