  2. Betsyscene 1 • In this scene the witches meet, and they say how they want to meet Macbeth and when they will meet him. • Quote: Witches: “Fair is foul, and foul is fair: Hover through the fog and filthy air.” • This shows that the witches are evil and do not care about risks. It is also really important because shows how they are planning everything that happens.

  3. Rachelscene 2 • Malcolm. “This is the sergeant who like a good and hardy soldier fought ‘gainst my captivity. Hail, brave friend! Say to the King the knowledge of the broil as thou didst leave it.” • In this part, King Duncan has been advised of heroic work during the battle that just happened. There were many brave men who fought and the captain was one of them.

  4. Rachelscene 2 • King. “No more that Thane of Cawdor shall deceive our bosom interest. Go pronounce his present death and his former title greet Macbeth.” • The former Thane of Cawdor did not please King Duncan. Duncan was disgraced by him and decided that during the battle Macbeth was brave and a nobleman, that he should become the new Thane of Cawdor.

  7. Betsyscene 4 In this scene Duncan tells Macbeth of how he wants to visit his Home. He also says How proud he is of Macbeth. Quote: Macbeth: (aside) The prince of Cumberland! That is a stepOn which I must fall down, or else o'erleap,For in my way it lies. Stars, hide your fires;Let not light see my black and deep desires.The eye wink at the hand, yet let that beWhich the eye fears, when it is done, to see. • Here Macbeth first shows his evil side as he debates on how he will be king. However he does consider giving up it seems he decides to think more later.

  8. Sydneyscene 5 • Lady. “Thou’rt mad to say it! Is not thy master with him? Who, were’t so, would have informed for preparation.” • This quote is by Lady Macbeth after the messenger told her that King Duncan was on his way to their house to spend the night at their house and she is starting to get worried because she knows that her plan will need to be performed soon.

  9. Sydneyscene 5 • Lady. “O, never shall the sun marrow see! Your face, my Thane, is as a book where men may read strange matters. To beguile the time, look like the time; bear welcome in your eye; your hand, your tounge; look like th’ innocent flower, but the serpent under’t. He that’s coming must be provided for; and you shall put this night’s great business into my dispatch, which shall to all our nights and days to come give solely sovereign sway and masterdom. • This quote is by Lady Macbeth and she was telling Macbeth that King Duncan would not leave their house because they will murder him and she is telling him to remain calm because his expressions are easy to read. She is also telling him that he needs to focus on the task they need to perform so he does not back out of it.

  10. Rachelscene 6 • King “See, see. Our honored hostess! The love that follows us sometimes is out trouble, which still we thank as love. Herein I teach you how you shall bid God ‘ield us for your pains and thank us for your troubles.” • This scene is when King Duncan is staying at Macbeth’s home. Lady Macbeth devised a plan to kill the king, but part of that plan was to be a great hostess to the King and kill him once everyone was asleep.

  11. Laurenscene 7 Macbeth. “…if th’ assassination could trammel up the consequence and catch with his surcease success, that but this blow might be the be-all and end-all.” • This quotation is Macbeth talking to himself about murdering King Duncan. He’s saying that if his plan is successful, then it would be like the beginning of a whole new life. This quote is important because the murder of the King is what starts all the drama with Macbeth and the people.

  12. Laurenscene 7 Macbeth. “We will proceed no further in this business. He hath honored me of late, and I have bought golden opinions from all sorts of people, which would be worn now in their newest gloss, not cast aside so soon.” • This is Macbeth telling Lady Macbeth that he is having second thoughts about murdering Duncan. He’s saying that people honor him, and if he kills someone, all those compliments would have gone to waste.
