THREE:The arrival of such a body as the Essex men, so near the city, and the approach of the Kentish men, was, of course, no secret to those who inhabited the Tower, but there was no standing army ready, at a moment's notice, to march out and oppose their progress.

Albert wanted to be a poet and Richard to be a gentleman."What dost thou here, John Kirkby, and why these screams?"
