In Macbeth scene 4 Ross and the old man talk about the darkness of the murder of Duncan. Then Macduff arrives then he decides to go to Scone to be crowned. Ross said “will you go it Scone?” Then Macduff said “No cousin, I’ll to Five.”

In Macbeth the scene starts with people finding out that Duncan was been killed and it spreads around the castle. The person to find the body and the guards was Macduff. Macduff said ” o horror, horror, horror Tongue nor heart cannot conceive, nor name thee”.

My challenge is to know what secondary characters I need to know in the play Macbeth. I think that the secondary characters are Banquo, Fleance, Macduff, Lady Macduff, Son of Macduff, Gentlewoman, Seyton, Porter, Captain, Old man, Doctor, First, second and third murder.

In this scene Macbeth is guilty for killing King Duncan. “Will a great Neptune’s ocean wash this blood clean from my hand?” Asked Macbeth. He is guilty and he thinks it won’t ever leave his mind.

The forth scene of Macbeth is Duncan asking “Is execution done on Cawdor?” Malcolm tells him that he confessed to his crimes and died. “My liege, They are not yet come back. But I spoke with one that saw him die: who did report that very frankly he confess’d his treasons”. Then Macbeth and Banquo enter to show their gratitude to Duncan.

The third scene in Macbeth starts with all of the witches meeting up on a heath. All of the witches asked where they have been. The second witch was killing swine. The first witch came across a sailors wife with chestnuts on her lap. The witch asked for some, but she refused to give up her chestnuts.” A sailor’s wife had chestnuts in her lap and munch’d, and munch’d and munch’d give me quote I :Aroint thee witch! She starts to plan revenge on his wife and him.

The second scene in Macbeth it starts at a military camp near King Duncan’s castle, Duncan asks a solder about the news of the battle. The invaders are being led by someone called Macdonwald. In the text we can see that he is a rebel, as conformed by this quote” the merciless Macdonwald-worthy to be a rebel”.

In the first scene of Macbeth, three witches meet up in a desert place. One of the witches asked “Where shall we meet again, in thunder, lighting or in rain?” This means they may meet up on the heath.

In scene 7 at the start Macbeth has a soliloquy where he feels like he can’t kill Duncan, because Macbeth has been loyal to Duncan. Lady Macbeth is trying to persuade Macbeth to kill Duncan by teasing him.”Screw your courage to the sticking place.” Which means that Macbeth went through with the plan. Lady Macbeth is saying to Macbeth be the man you are.

In act 1 scene 5 Lady Macbeth received a message from Macbeth, saying that he will have a great future because he will become king. Lady Macbeth wants the power when she said “unsex me here” meaning that she wants to change into a man. That means also means that she thinks that only men can kill. That’s why she wants to become a man. At the end Macbeth enters the castle and showed Lady Macbeth what he was doing. She said “Your hand, your tounge;look like th’innocent flower, But be the serpent under’t”. This shows that Macbeth has to act innocent then strike at the right time.
