All's Well That Ends Well

Act III, Scene III – Florence – Before the Duke's Palace

There was a flourish and sounding of trumpets and drums when the Duke/Tristan, Bertram/Seto, and Parolles/Duke entered the stage, which was now the court at Florence, along with some soldiers.

The Duke/Tristan faced Bertram/Seto and said, "I now appoint you as general of the cavalry. I invest my trust, and my love, in you."

"Although it is a heavy responsibility, I will make an effort to fulfill it to the best of my ability. And I will also venture to the very edge of danger," replied Bertram/Seto.

Satisfied with Bertram's/Seto's reply, the Duke/Tristan said, "I wish you good fortune in your endeavors."

"I appeal to Mars, the god of war. From this day onward, I will be the lover of the drums of war and the hater of love."

Then everyone left the stage, preparing for the next scene.
