ACT IV  
Scene 1. At the Tower, Queen Elizabeth, the Duchess of York, and Anne, now Richard’s wife, are  
prevented from visiting the young princes by Brakenbury, who acts under orders from “the king.”  
They are horrified when Anne is summoned to Westminster to be crowned Richard’s queen.  
Scene 2. Richard is suspicious when Buckingham fails to condone immediately the suggested murder  
of the young princes. He hires Tyrrel to organize the assassination and plans to consolidate his  
position further by marrying King Edward’s daughter Elizabeth. When Buckingham reminds Richard  
that he has promised him the earldom of Hereford, he is rebuffed. Alarmed, Buckingham flees to  
Wales.  
Scene 3. The princes and Anne are dead, Clarence’s son has been imprisoned, his daughter safely  
married and Richard determines to go to Elizabeth “a jolly thriving wooer.” Ratcliffe announces that  
Buckingham is gathering Welsh forces.
