CROWD. MARSHALMEN.
MARSHALMAN. Stand back, keep a clear lane!
When will her Majesty pass, sayst thou? why now, even

before I break them, and make what noise you will with
your tongues, so it be not treason. Long live
Queen Mary, the lawful and legitimate daughter of
Harry the Eighth! Shout, knaves!
CITIZENS. Long live Queen Mary!
FIRST CITIZEN. That’s a hard word, legitimate;
