The action is interrupted and lightened by the cheat of Simpcox and by the rebellion of Jack Cade.

It is now generally agreed that Shakespeare's hand can be traced in the old drama, and with especial certainty in the comic scenes wherein Cade and his followers play the chief parts.

But some of the changes are for the ...
