Make haste, my lord of Suffolk, as you love us.
Butler, post you to London with all speed; Command the Mayor and shrieves, on their allegiance, The city gates be presently shut up And guarded with a strong sufficient watch, And not a man be suffered to pass Without a special warrant from our self. Command the Postern by the Tower be kept, And proclamation, on the pain of death, That not a citizen stir from his doors, Except such as the Mayor and Shrieves shall choose For their own guard and safety of their persons. Butler, away; have care unto my charge. BUTLER. I go, my Sovereign. KING. Butler! BUTLER. My Lord. KING. Go down by Greenwich, and command a boat At the Friar's bridge attend my coming down. BUTLER. I will, my Lord. |
