on London-stone.
♦
Cade.
Now is Mortimer lord of this city. And here, sitting upon London-stone, I charge and command that, of the city’s cost, the pissing-conduit run nothing but claret
♦
wine this first year of our reign. And now henceforward
5
it shall be treason for any that calls me other than Lord Mortimer.
Enter a Soldier, running.
Sold.
Jack Cade! Jack Cade!
Cade.
Knock him down there.
[They kill him.
♦
Smith.
If this fellow be wise, he’ll never call ye Jack
10 Cade more: I think he hath a very fair warning.
Dick.
My lord, there’s an army gathered together in Smithfield.
♦
Cade.
Come, then, let’s go fight with them: but first, go and set London bridge on fire; and, if you can, burn
15
down the Tower too. Come, let’s away.
[Exeunt.
