The Second Part Of King Henry The Sixth

  1. 1 Enter Lord Scales upon the Tower, walking. Then enter two or three
  2. 2 Citizens below.
  3. 3 SCALES.
  4. 4 How now? Is Jack Cade slain?
  5. 5 1 CITIZEN.
  6. 6 No, my lord, nor likely to be slain; for they have won the Bridge,
  7. 7 killing all those that withstand them. The Lord Mayor craves aid of
  8. 8 your honour from the Tower to defend the city from the rebels.
  9. 9 SCALES.
  10. 10 Such aid as I can spare you shall command,
  11. 11 But I am troubled here with them myself;
  12. 12 The rebels have assayed to win the Tower.
  13. 13 But get you to Smithfield and gather head,
  14. 14 And thither I will send you Matthew Gough.
  15. 15 Fight for your king, your country, and your lives!
  16. 16 And so farewell, for I must hence again.
  17. 17 [_Exeunt._]
