Act IV, Scene 5

London. The Tower.

[Enter SCALES upon the Tower, walking.] [p]Then enter two or three Citizens below]

• Lord Scales. How now! is Jack Cade slain?

• First Citizen. No, my lord, nor likely to be slain; for they have
  won the bridge, killing all those that withstand 2590
  them: the lord mayor craves aid of your honour from
  the Tower, to defend the city from the rebels.

• Lord 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. 2595
  But get you to Smithfield, and gather head,
  And thither I will send you Matthew Goffe;
  Fight for your king, your country and your lives;
  And so, farewell, for I must hence again.

[Exeunt]
