fair is foul, foul is fair | witches to themselves, introduces theme of disorder and chaos |
What he hath lost, noble macbeth hath won | Duncan to Ross, situational irony, he said the former thane had betrayed him but so will macbeth bc he will kill duncan to become king |
Why do you dress me in borrowed robes | Macbeth to Angus and Ross, it addresses the fact that the first prophecy has come true and it sets macbeth in motion |
That is a step on which I must fall down, or else o’er heap | Macbeth to himself, it shows his ambition to become king he must get malcolm whos the prince of cumberland out of his way |
O never shall sun that morrow see | Lady Macbeth to Macbeth, show a theme of desires, lady macbeth wants macbeth to become king so they will plan to kill him |
this castle hath a pleasant seat. the air nimbly and sweetly recommends itself unto our gentle senses | Duncan to banquo, shows dramatic irony because duncan will be killed that night at the castle |
the bell invites me | macbeth to himself, his ambition is driving him to kill the king |
i think not of them | macbeth to banquo, dramatic irony, he thinks about the witches prophecies or else he wouldnt be commited to killing the king |
these deeds must not be thought after these ways so it will make us mad | lady macbeth to macbeth, forshadows that when they did think about what theyve done it made them go insane |
wake duncan with thy knocking, i would thou couldst | macbeth to knocker, forshadows the guilt that he will feel later in the play |
theres daggers in those men’s smiles; the near in blood, the nearer bloody | old man to ross, theme of disorder |
