The Tower Gate.
Enter the Warders of the Tower, with halbards.
First Warder.
Ho, make a guard there!
Second Warder.
Master Lieutenant gives a straight command,
The people be avoided from the bridge.

From whence is he committed, who can tell?
First Warder.
From Durham House, I hear.
Second Warder.
The guard were waiting there are hour ago.
Third Warder.
If he stay long, he'll not get near the wharf,
