London. The Tower.
 Enter Lord SCALES upon the Tower, walking.
 Then enters two or three CITIZENS below.

Scales	How now, is Jack Cade slain?

1st Citizen	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 assayed to win the Tower.
	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.
