SCENE V. The Same. The Tower. Enter Lord Scales, and Others, walking on the Walls. Then enter certain Citizens, below.

Scales.

How now! is Jack Cade slain?

1 Cit.

No, my lord, nor likely to be slain; for they have won the bridge, killing all those that withstand them. The lord mayor craves aid of your honour from the Tower, to defend the city from the rebels.

Scales.
Such aid as I can spare, you shall command,
But I am troubled here with them myself:
The rebels have assay'd to win the Tower.
But get you to Smithfield, and gather head,
And thither I will send you Matthew Gough.
Fight for your king, your country, and your lives;
And so farewell, for I must hence again. 11Q0734
[Exeunt.
