- 3:30Speaker 1: Enter three witches.
- 3:32Speaker 19: When shall we three meet again in thunder, lightning or

- 3:37Speaker 20: When the hurly burly is done, When the battle's lost
- 3:41Speaker 20: and won?
- 3:42Speaker 22: That will be ere the set of sun.
- 3:45Speaker 19: Where the place upon the heath.
- 3:48Speaker 22: There to meet with Macbeth.
- 3:51Speaker 19: I come Grumauken Paddock calls Anon, fair is foul and
- 3:58Speaker 19: foul is fair?
- 4:00Speaker 1: Hover through the fog and filthy air, Excillent. Act one,
- 4:08Speaker 1: Scene two, a camp near Fort alarm within Enter Duncan Malcolm,
- 4:15Speaker 1: Donaldbane Lennox with attendants meeting a bleeding sergeant.
- 4:20Speaker 2: What bloody man is that he can report, as seemeth
- 4:24Speaker 2: by his plight of the revolt the newest state.
- 4:28Speaker 3: This is the sergeant who, like a good and hardy soldier,
- 4:31Speaker 3: fought gainst my captivity. Hail, brave friend, say to the
- 4:37Speaker 3: king the knowledge of the broil, as thou didst.
- 4:39Speaker 12: Leave it doubtful, it stood as two spent swimmers that
- 4:47Speaker 12: do cling together and choke their art. The merciless mac
- 4:52Speaker 12: donald worthy to be a rebel, thought to that the
- 4:54Speaker 12: multiplying villanies of nature do swarm upon him from the
- 4:58Speaker 12: western aisles of Kern and gallow glasses is supplied, and
- 5:02Speaker 12: fortune on his damned quarrel, smiling showed like a rebel's haw.
- 5:09Speaker 12: But all's too weak for brave Macbeth. Well he deserves
- 5:14Speaker 12: that name, disdaining fortune with his brandished steel, which smoked
- 5:19Speaker 12: with bloody execution, like Valor's minion, carved out his passage
- 5:24Speaker 12: till he faced the slave, which ne'er shook hands, nor
- 5:28Speaker 12: bade farewell to him, till he unseened him from the
- 5:32Speaker 12: knave to the chaps, and fixed his head upon our battlements,
- 5:37Speaker 12: Oh valiant cousin, Worthy gentleman. As whence the sun gins
- 5:42Speaker 12: his reflection, shipwrecking storms and dire for thunders break so
- 5:48Speaker 12: from that spring, whence comfort seems to come, discomfort swells, Mark,
- 5:54Speaker 12: King of Scotland, Mark no sooner justice had with valor
- 5:58Speaker 12: armed compelled these Curns to trust their heels. But the
- 6:03Speaker 12: Norway and Lord, surveying vantage, with furbished arms and new
- 6:08Speaker 12: supplies of men, began a fresh assault.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Dismayed not this our captains Macbeth and Banquo.
- 6:17Speaker 12: Yes, as sparrows eagles, or the hair the lion have
- 6:23Speaker 12: I so sooth I must report they were as cannons
- 6:28Speaker 12: overcharged with double cracks. So they doubly redoubled strokes upon
- 6:32Speaker 12: the foe. Except they meant to bathe in reeking wounds,
- 6:37Speaker 12: or memorize another Golgotha, I cannot tell, but I am faint.
- 6:44Speaker 12: My gashes cry for help.
- 6:47Speaker 2: So will thy words become thee as thy wounds they
- 6:51Speaker 2: smack of honor? Both go give him, sergeants.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Exit, Sergeant attended, who comes here and to ross.
- 7:01Speaker 3: The worthy thegne of Ros?
- 7:04Speaker 6: What are his looks? Through his eyes?
- 7:06Speaker 8: So should he look that seems to speak things strange?
- 7:09Speaker 9: God save the king?
- 7:11Speaker 2: Whence camest thou worthy theane.
- 7:14Speaker 9: From Fife, Great King, where the Norwayian banners flout the
- 7:17Speaker 9: sky and fan our people cold Norway himself with terrible numbers,
- 7:21Speaker 9: assisted by that most disloyal traitor, the theign of Caudor
- 7:25Speaker 9: began a dismal conflict till that Boloona's bridegroom lapped in proof,
- 7:29Speaker 9: confronted him with self comparisons point against point, rebellious arm
- 7:33Speaker 9: against arm, curving his lavish spirit. And to conclude the
- 7:37Speaker 9: victory fell.
- 7:38Speaker 2: On us great happiness.
- 7:41Speaker 9: That now Senno the Norway's king craves composition. Nor would
- 7:45Speaker 9: we deaine him burial of his men till he disbursed
- 7:48Speaker 9: at Saint Colmbe's inch ten thousand dollars to our general use.
- 7:53Speaker 2: No more that theign of Caldor shall deceive our bosom interest.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Go pronounce his present death, and with his former title,
- 8:02Speaker 2: greet Macbeth.
- 8:04Speaker 9: I'll see it done.
- 8:05Speaker 2: When he hath lost, noble Macbeth hath won.
- 8:08Speaker 1: Excient Act one, Scene three. A heath near forests thunder,
- 8:17Speaker 1: Enter the three witches.
- 8:19Speaker 19: Where hast thou bidden sister killing swine sister, where thou
- 8:25Speaker 19: a sailor's wife, had chestnuts in her lap, and munched
- 8:28Speaker 19: and munched and munched. Give me quoth i a rouin
- 8:32Speaker 19: to thee witch. The rump fed Runion cries her husband's
- 8:36Speaker 19: two Aleppo, gone master o the tiger, but in a sieve.
- 8:40Speaker 19: I'll thither sail and like a rat without a tail,
- 8:43Speaker 19: I'll do, I'll do, and I'll do.
- 8:46Speaker 20: I'll give thee wind thou art kind, and I another.
- 8:50Speaker 19: I myself have all the other, and the very ports
- 8:53Speaker 19: they blow, all the quarters that they know. I the
- 8:56Speaker 19: shipman's card. I will drain him dry as hay. Sleep,
- 9:00Speaker 19: shall neither night nor day hang upon his penthouse lid.
- 9:03Speaker 19: He shall live a man forbid, weary seven nights nine
- 9:07Speaker 19: times nine. Shall he dwindle, peak and pine. Though his
- 9:10Speaker 19: bark cannot be lost, yet it shall be tempest tossed.
- 9:14Speaker 19: Look what I have, show me, Show me here, I
- 9:18Speaker 19: have a pilot's thumb wrecked his homeward.
- 9:20Speaker 1: He did come drum within.
- 9:23Speaker 22: A drum a drum. Macbeth doth come.
- 9:27Speaker 20: There dists hand in hand posters of the sea and land.
- 9:33Speaker 29: Thus you go about about th thrist mine and thries
- 9:39Speaker 29: again to make thine peace.
- 9:41Speaker 25: The charms wound.
- 9:43Speaker 1: Up enter Macbeth and Banquet.
- 9:46Speaker 5: So foul and fair A day I have not seen.
- 9:49Speaker 6: Her forest called to fas. What are these so withered
- 9:54Speaker 6: and so wild in their attire, that look not like
- 9:56Speaker 6: the inhabitants of the earth. And yet our aunt live you?
- 10:00Speaker 6: Or are you aught that man may question? You seem
- 10:04Speaker 6: to understand me by each at once her chappy finger
- 10:06Speaker 6: laying upon her skinny lips. You should be women, and
- 10:11Speaker 6: yet your beards forbid me to interpret that you are so.
- 10:15Speaker 5: Speak if you can, what are you?
- 10:18Speaker 19: All Hail Macbeth, Hail to thee Dene of Glamos.
- 10:22Speaker 20: All Hail Macbeth, Hail to thee Thane of Cardor.
- 10:27Speaker 22: All Hail Macbeth.
- 10:29Speaker 21: Thou shalt be king hereafter?
- 10:32Speaker 6: Good sir, Why do you start and seem to fear
- 10:35Speaker 6: things that do sound so fair? Is the name of truth?
- 10:38Speaker 6: Are ye fantastical? Or that indeed which outwardly ye show?
- 10:42Speaker 6: My noble partner you greet with present grace and great prediction,
- 10:46Speaker 6: of noble having, and of royal hope, that he seems
- 10:48Speaker 6: rapt withal to me. You speak not if you can
- 10:53Speaker 6: look into the seeds of time and say which grain
- 10:56Speaker 6: will grow, and which will not speak them to me,
- 10:58Speaker 6: who neither beg nor fear your favors, know your hate.
- 11:02Speaker 19: Hal Hail, hail lesser than Macbeth and greater.
- 11:08Speaker 20: Not so happy, yet much happier.
- 11:11Speaker 22: Thou shalt get kings, though thou be none so all
- 11:15Speaker 22: hail Macbeth.
- 11:16Speaker 5: And Banquo Banker, and Macbeth all hell, stay you, imperfect speakers,
- 11:22Speaker 5: tell me more. By Sinel's death, I know I am
- 11:25Speaker 5: fine of Glomus, But how of Cauterr. The thane of
- 11:29Speaker 5: Catter lives prosperous gentlemen, And to be king stands not
- 11:33Speaker 5: within the prospect of belief, no more than to be
- 11:36Speaker 5: caught her say, from whence you owe this strange intelligence?
- 11:40Speaker 5: Or why upon this blasted heath you stop our way
- 11:43Speaker 5: with such prophetic greeting speak? I charge you?
- 11:46Speaker 1: Which is vanish?
- 11:48Speaker 6: The earth hath bubbles as the water has, and these
- 11:52Speaker 6: are of them? Whither are they vanished?
- 11:56Speaker 5: Into the air, and what seemed corporal melted as breath
- 11:59Speaker 5: and to the wind. Would they had stayed?
- 12:03Speaker 6: Were such things here as we do speak about? Or
- 12:05Speaker 6: have we eaten on the insane route that takes reason prisoner?
- 12:10Speaker 5: Your children shall be kings, you shall be king? And
- 12:14Speaker 5: then of Cauter too went it not so to.
- 12:18Speaker 6: The self same tune and words? Who's here?
- 12:22Speaker 1: Enter Ross and Angus.
- 12:24Speaker 9: The king hath happily received Macbeth the news of thy success.
- 12:28Speaker 9: And when he reads thy personal venture in the rebels fight,
- 12:31Speaker 9: his wonders and his praises do contend, which should be
- 12:34Speaker 9: thine or his silenced? With that in viewing o'er the
- 12:37Speaker 9: rest of the self. Same day he finds THEE in
- 12:39Speaker 9: the stout nor waigh in ranks, nothing afeared of what
- 12:42Speaker 9: thyself didst make strange images of death as thick as
- 12:46Speaker 9: hail came post with post, and every one did bear
- 12:49Speaker 9: thy praises in his kingdom's great defense and poured them
- 12:52Speaker 9: down before him.
- 12:54Speaker 11: We assent to give thee from our royal master, thanks
- 12:57Speaker 11: only to herald thee into his sight, not pay thee.
- 13:01Speaker 9: And for in earnest of a greater honor he bade
- 13:04Speaker 9: me from him call the Theane of Caudor, in which
- 13:07Speaker 9: edition hail most worthy Thane, For it is thine.
- 13:11Speaker 6: What can the devil speak?
- 13:13Speaker 30: True?
- 13:14Speaker 5: The Thene of Carter lives? Why do you dress me
- 13:16Speaker 5: in borrowed robes?
- 13:18Speaker 11: Who was the Theane lives? Yet, but under heavy judgment
- 13:22Speaker 11: bears that life which he deserves to lose. Whether he
- 13:26Speaker 11: was combined with those of Norway, or did line the
- 13:29Speaker 11: rebel with hidden help and vantage, or that with both
- 13:34Speaker 11: he labored in his country's wreck. I know not, but
- 13:37Speaker 11: Treason's capital, confessed and proved, have overthrown him.
- 13:42Speaker 5: Aside Glamus and theane of Carter, the greatest is behind.
- 13:48Speaker 1: To Ross and Angus, thanks for.
- 13:51Speaker 5: Your pains to banquell. Do you not hope your children
- 13:56Speaker 5: shall be kings? When those that gave the thene of
- 13:58Speaker 5: Carter to me promise no less to them.
- 14:02Speaker 6: That trusted home might yet enkindle you andto the crown.
- 14:05Speaker 6: Besides the figne of Cordo. But tis strange, and oftentimes
- 14:11Speaker 6: to win us to a harm. The instruments of darkness
- 14:13Speaker 6: tell us truths, win us with honest trifles, to betray
- 14:17Speaker 6: us in deepest consequence. Cousins a word, I pray you Aside.
- 14:23Speaker 5: Two truths are told as happy prologs to the swelling
- 14:27Speaker 5: act of the imperial theme. I thank you, gentlemen.
- 14:31Speaker 1: Aside.
- 14:33Speaker 5: This supernatural soliciting cannot be ill, cannot be good? If ill?
- 14:39Speaker 5: Why hath it given me earnest of success commencing in
- 14:42Speaker 5: a truth? I am faine of calder. If good, why
- 14:47Speaker 5: do I yield to that suggestion, whose horrid image doth
- 14:50Speaker 5: unfix my hair and make my seated heart knock at
- 14:53Speaker 5: my ribs against the use of nature. Present fears are
- 14:57Speaker 5: less than horrible imaginings. I thought, Whose murder yet is
- 15:01Speaker 5: but fantastical shakes. So my single state of man, that
- 15:05Speaker 5: function is smothered in surmise, and nothing is but what
- 15:09Speaker 5: is not.
- 15:11Speaker 6: Look how our partner's wrapped aside.
- 15:14Speaker 5: If chance will have me king, why chance may crown
- 15:18Speaker 5: me without my stir.
- 15:20Speaker 6: New horrors come upon him like us. Strange garments cleave
- 15:24Speaker 6: not to their mold, but with the aid.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Of use aside.
- 15:28Speaker 5: Come what come may time, and the hour runs through
- 15:32Speaker 5: the roughest day.
- 15:34Speaker 6: Worthy Macbeth, we stay upon your leisure.
- 15:37Speaker 5: Give me your favor. My dull brain was wrought with
- 15:40Speaker 5: things forgotten. Kind gentlemen, your pains are registered where every
- 15:44Speaker 5: day I turn the leaf to read them. Let us
- 15:47Speaker 5: toward the king think upon one hath chanced, and at
- 15:51Speaker 5: more time, the interim having weighed, let us speak our
- 15:55Speaker 5: free hearts, each to other very gladly, till then enough
- 16:01Speaker 5: come friends.
- 16:03Speaker 1: Excellent Act one, Scene four forres the Palace Flourish enter
- 16:11Speaker 1: Duncan Malcolm Donald Bain, Lennox and attendants.
- 16:16Speaker 2: His execution done on Caldor. Are not those in commission
- 16:20Speaker 2: yet returned, my liege.
- 16:22Speaker 3: They are not yet come back. But I have spoke
- 16:25Speaker 3: with one that saw him die, who did report that
- 16:29Speaker 3: very frankly he confessed his treasons, implored Your Highness pardon,
- 16:34Speaker 3: and set forth a deep repentance. Nothing in his life
- 16:38Speaker 3: became him like Believiate. He died as one that had
- 16:42Speaker 3: been studied. In his death to throw away the nearest
- 16:45Speaker 3: thing he owed as to a careless trifle.
- 16:48Speaker 2: There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face.
- 16:53Speaker 2: He was a gentleman on whom I built an absolute trust.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Enter Macbeth, Banquell, Ross and Angus.
- 17:01Speaker 2: O worthiest cousin. The sin of my ingratitude even now
- 17:05Speaker 2: is heavy on me. Thou art so far before that
- 17:09Speaker 2: swiftest wing of recompense is slow to overtake thee would
- 17:13Speaker 2: thou hadst less deserved, that the proportion both of thanks
- 17:17Speaker 2: and payment might have been mine. Only I have left
- 17:19Speaker 2: to say, more is thy do than more than all
- 17:23Speaker 2: can pay?
- 17:25Speaker 5: The service and the loyalty I owe in doing it
- 17:28Speaker 5: pays itself. Your Highness's part is to receive our duties.
- 17:33Speaker 5: And our duties are to your throne and state, children
- 17:36Speaker 5: and servants, which do but what they should, by doing
- 17:40Speaker 5: everything safe toward your love and honor.
- 17:43Speaker 2: Welcome hither. I have begun to plant thee, and will
- 17:46Speaker 2: labor to make thee full of growing. Noble banquo, thou
- 17:50Speaker 2: hast no less deserved, nor must be known no less
- 17:54Speaker 2: to have done. So let me enfold thee and hold
- 17:56Speaker 2: thee to my heart.
- 17:58Speaker 6: There if I grow, the harvest is your own.
- 18:02Speaker 2: My plenteous joys, wanton in fullness, seek to hide themselves
- 18:06Speaker 2: in drops of sorrow sons kinsmen, Thanes, and you, whose
- 18:13Speaker 2: places are the nearest know. We will establish our estate
- 18:17Speaker 2: upon our eldest Malcolm, whom we name hereafter, the Prince
- 18:22Speaker 2: of Cumberland, which honor must not unaccompanied. Invest him only
- 18:26Speaker 2: but signs of nobleness like stars, shall shine on all
- 18:30Speaker 2: deservers from hence to Inverness, and bind us further to you.
- 18:36Speaker 5: The rest is labor, which is not used for you.
- 18:39Speaker 5: I'll be myself the harbinger and make joyful the hearing
- 18:42Speaker 5: of my wife with your approach, So humbly take my leave.
- 18:47Speaker 2: My worthy caudor aside.
- 18:50Speaker 5: The Prince of Cumberland. That is a step on which
- 18:54Speaker 5: I must fall down, or elsore leap, for in my
- 18:57Speaker 5: way it lies. Hide your fires. Let not lights see
- 19:04Speaker 5: my black and deep desires. The eye wink at the hand.
- 19:08Speaker 5: Yet let that be which the eye fears, when it
- 19:11Speaker 5: is done to see.
- 19:13Speaker 2: Exit true worthy banquot. He is full, so valiant, and
- 19:19Speaker 2: in his commendations I am fed. It is a banquet
- 19:22Speaker 2: to me. Let's after him whose care is gone before
- 19:26Speaker 2: to bid us welcome. It is a peerless kinsman.
- 19:30Speaker 1: Flourish Excillent, Act one, Scene five Inverness Macbeth's castle. Enter
- 19:41Speaker 1: Lady Macbeth reading a letter.
- 19:45Speaker 16: They met me in the day of success, and I
- 19:48Speaker 16: have learned by the perfectest report they have more in
- 19:51Speaker 16: them than mortal knowledge. When I burned and desire to
- 19:55Speaker 16: question them further, they made themselves heir, into which they vanished.
- 20:00Speaker 16: Whiles I stood rapt in the wonder of it, came
- 20:03Speaker 16: missives from the King, who all hailed me fain of
- 20:06Speaker 16: caudor by which title? Before these weird sisters saluted me
- 20:11Speaker 16: and referred me to the coming on of time, with
- 20:14Speaker 16: hail King, that shalt be this have I thought good
- 20:19Speaker 16: to deliver THEE, my dearest partner of greatness, that thou
- 20:22Speaker 16: mightst not lose the dues of rejoicing by being ignorant
- 20:26Speaker 16: of what greatness has promised THEE. Lay it to thy
- 20:30Speaker 16: heart and farewell. GLAMs thou art and caudor, and shalt
- 20:38Speaker 16: be what thou art promised. Yet do I fear thy nature?
- 20:45Speaker 16: It is too full of the milk of human kindness
- 20:47Speaker 16: to catch the nearest way. Thou wouldst be great art,
- 20:52Speaker 16: not without ambition, but without the illness. Should attend it
- 20:57Speaker 16: what thou would'st highly, that wouldst thou thou holy, wouldst
- 21:01Speaker 16: not play false, and yet wouldst wrongly win. Thou'dst have
- 21:06Speaker 16: great gloms that which cries, thus thou must do if
- 21:10Speaker 16: thou have it, and that which rather thou dost fear
- 21:13Speaker 16: to do than wish should be undone. Hie THEE hither
- 21:18Speaker 16: that I may pour my spirits in thine ear and
- 21:21Speaker 16: chastise with the valor of my tongue. All that impedes
- 21:24Speaker 16: THEE from the golden round which fate and metaphysical aid
- 21:29Speaker 16: doth seem to have THEE crowned withal.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Enter a messenger.
- 21:35Speaker 16: What is your tidings.
- 21:38Speaker 28: The king comes here to night.
- 21:40Speaker 16: Thou art mad to say it is not thy master
- 21:44Speaker 16: with him, who were it so, would have informed for preparation.
- 21:48Speaker 28: So please you, it is true, our thin is coming.
- 21:51Speaker 28: One of my fellows had the speed of him, who
- 21:54Speaker 28: almost dared for breath, had scarcely more than would make
- 21:57Speaker 28: up his message.
- 21:59Speaker 16: Give him. He brings great news.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Exit messenger.
- 22:06Speaker 16: The raven himself is hoarse that croaks the fatal entrance
- 22:10Speaker 16: of Duncan under my battlements. Come you spirits that tend
- 22:17Speaker 16: on mortal thoughts. Unsex me here and fill me from
- 22:22Speaker 16: the crown to the toe top full of direst cruelty,
- 22:27Speaker 16: Make thick my blood. Stop up the access and passage
- 22:30Speaker 16: to remorse that no compunctious visitings of nature shake my
- 22:35Speaker 16: fell purpose, nor keep peace between the effect and it.
- 22:39Speaker 16: Come to my woman's breasts, and take my milk for gall,
- 22:43Speaker 16: you murdering ministers, wherever in your sightless substances you wait
- 22:48Speaker 16: on nature's mischief, Come thick night, and pall thee in
- 22:53Speaker 16: the dunnest smoke of hell, that my keen knife see
- 22:57Speaker 16: not the wound it makes, nor Heaven peep through the
- 22:59Speaker 16: blank of the dark to cry.
- 23:01Speaker 31: Hold hold enter Macbeth, great gloms worthy coudor greater than both,
- 23:11Speaker 31: by the all hail hereafter thy letters have transported me
- 23:15Speaker 31: beyond this ignorant present, and I feel now the future
- 23:19Speaker 31: in the instant.
- 23:21Speaker 5: My dearest love, Duncan comes here to night, and one
- 23:25Speaker 5: goes hence tomorrow as he purposes.
- 23:29Speaker 16: Oh, never shall sun that morrow sea. Your face, my fane,
- 23:36Speaker 16: is as a book where men may read strange matters
- 23:41Speaker 16: to beguile. The time look like the time, bear welcome
- 23:45Speaker 16: in your eye, your hand, your tongue, look like the
- 23:49Speaker 16: innocent flower. But be the serpent under it. He that's
- 23:55Speaker 16: coming must be provided for. And you shall put this
- 23:58Speaker 16: night's great business into my dispatch, which shall to all
- 24:03Speaker 16: our nights and days to come give solely sovereigns, sway
- 24:07Speaker 16: and masterdom.
- 24:10Speaker 5: We will speak further only.
- 24:13Speaker 16: Look up clear. To alter favor, ever, is to fear.
- 24:18Speaker 16: Leave all the rest to.
- 24:20Speaker 1: Me, Excillent, Act one, Scene six, before Macbeth's castle, Oh,
- 24:30Speaker 1: boys and torches, Enter Duncan, Malcolm, Donaldbaine, Banquo, Lennox McDuff,
- 24:36Speaker 1: Ross Angus and attendants.
- 24:40Speaker 2: This castle hath a pleasant seat. The air nimbly and
- 24:44Speaker 2: sweetly recommends itself. Unto our gentle senses.
- 24:48Speaker 6: This guest of summer, the temple haunting Martlet, does approve
- 24:51Speaker 6: by his loved mansionry that the heaven's breath smells wooingly here.
- 24:55Speaker 6: No jutty freeze, buttress, nor coign of vantage. But this
- 24:58Speaker 6: bird hath made his pendent bed and procreant cradle where
- 25:03Speaker 6: they most breed and haunt. I have observed the air
- 25:06Speaker 6: is delicate.
- 25:07Speaker 1: Enter Lady Macbeth.
- 25:09Speaker 2: See see our honored hostess. The love that follows us
- 25:13Speaker 2: some time is our trouble, which still we think as love. Hearin,
- 25:18Speaker 2: I teach you how you shall bid God ill us
- 25:20Speaker 2: for your pains, and think us for your trouble.
- 25:24Speaker 16: All our service in every point twice done and then
- 25:28Speaker 16: done double, were poor and single business to contend against
- 25:32Speaker 16: those honors deep and broad. Wherewith your majesty loads our
- 25:36Speaker 16: house for those of old and the late dignities heaped
- 25:41Speaker 16: up to them, we rest your hermits.
- 25:44Speaker 2: Where's the Thane of Cawdor. We coursed him at the
- 25:47Speaker 2: heels and have a purpose to be his purveyor. But
- 25:50Speaker 2: he rides well, and a great love sharp as his
- 25:53Speaker 2: spur hath holp him to his home before us, fair
- 25:57Speaker 2: and noble hostess, we are your guest to night.
- 26:01Speaker 16: Your servants ever have theirs themselves, and what is theirs
- 26:05Speaker 16: encompt to make their audit to your highness? Pleasure still
- 26:09Speaker 16: to return your.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Own Give me your hand, conduct me to mine host.
- 26:15Speaker 2: We love him highly, and shall continue our graces towards him,
- 26:19Speaker 2: by your leave, Hostess.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Excellent, Act one, Scene seven Macbeth's castle. O boys and torches,
- 26:31Speaker 1: enter a sewer and divers servants with dishes and service,
- 26:35Speaker 1: and pass over the stage. Then enter Macbeth.
- 26:39Speaker 5: If it were done when tis done, then twere well
- 26:42Speaker 5: it were done quickly, if the assassination could travel up
- 26:45Speaker 5: the consequence and catch with his circes success that but
- 26:50Speaker 5: this blow might be the bee all and the end
- 26:52Speaker 5: all here but here upon this bank and shoal of
- 26:56Speaker 5: time we'll jump the life to come. But in these
- 27:01Speaker 5: cases we still have judgment here that we but teach
- 27:04Speaker 5: bloody instructions, which, being taught, return to plague the inventor.
- 27:09Speaker 5: This even handed justice commends the ingredients of our poisoned
- 27:13Speaker 5: chalice to our own lips. He's here in double trust. First,
- 27:18Speaker 5: as I am his kinsman and his subject strong both
- 27:22Speaker 5: against the deed. Then as his host, who should against
- 27:26Speaker 5: his murderer shut the door, not bear the knife myself.
- 27:31Speaker 5: Besides this, duncan hath borne his faculties. So meek hath
- 27:35Speaker 5: been so clear in his great office, that his virtues
- 27:38Speaker 5: will plead like angels, trumpet tongued against the deep damnation
- 27:43Speaker 5: of his taking off and pity, like a naked new
- 27:47Speaker 5: born babe striding the blast or Heaven's cherubim horsed upon
- 27:51Speaker 5: the sightless couriers of the air, shall blow the horrid
- 27:55Speaker 5: deed in every eye that tears shall drown the wind.
- 27:59Speaker 5: I have no bird who pricked the sides of my intent,
- 28:02Speaker 5: but only vaulting ambition, which o'er leaps itself and falls
- 28:06Speaker 5: on the other.
- 28:08Speaker 1: Enter, Lady Macbeth, how now, what news.
- 28:14Speaker 16: He has almost supped? Why have you left the chamber?
- 28:17Speaker 5: Hath he asked for me, No, you not, he has
- 28:22Speaker 5: We will proceed no further in this business, he hath
- 28:24Speaker 5: honored me of late, and I have bought golden opinions
- 28:28Speaker 5: from all sorts of people, which would be worn now
- 28:31Speaker 5: in their newest gloss, not cast aside.
- 28:33Speaker 16: So soon was the hope drunk wherein you dressed yourself.
- 28:38Speaker 16: Hath it slept since, and wakes it now to look
- 28:43Speaker 16: so green and pale at what it did so freely
- 28:48Speaker 16: from this time such I account thy love, art thou
- 28:53Speaker 16: a feared to be the same in thine own act
- 28:55Speaker 16: and valor as thou art in desire, wouldst thou have
- 28:59Speaker 16: that which thou was deems the ornament of life, and
- 29:01Speaker 16: live a coward in thine own esteem? Letting I dare
- 29:05Speaker 16: not wait upon, I would like the poor cat to the.
- 29:08Speaker 5: Adage prithee peace, I dare do all that may become.
- 29:13Speaker 5: A man who dares do more is none.
- 29:17Speaker 16: What beast was then that made you break this enterprise
- 29:21Speaker 16: to me? When you durst do it, then you were
- 29:26Speaker 16: a man, and to be more than what you were,
- 29:29Speaker 16: you would be so much more the man. Nor time
- 29:33Speaker 16: nor place did then adhere, And yet you would make
- 29:36Speaker 16: both they have made themselves, and that their fitness now
- 29:41Speaker 16: doth unmake you. I have given suck, and know how
- 29:47Speaker 16: tender tis to love the babe that milks me. I would,
- 29:51Speaker 16: while it was smiling in my face, have plucked my
- 29:54Speaker 16: nipple from his boneless gums, and dashed the brains out,
- 29:58Speaker 16: and I so soon worn as you have done to this.
- 30:03Speaker 5: If we should fail, we fail.
- 30:09Speaker 16: But screw your courage to the sticking place, and will
- 30:13Speaker 16: not fail. When Duncan is asleep, where to the rather
- 30:18Speaker 16: shall his day's hard journey soundly invite him his two chamberlains,
- 30:23Speaker 16: will I, with wine and watle so convinced that memory
- 30:27Speaker 16: the water of the brain, shall be a fume, and
- 30:30Speaker 16: the receipt of reason a limbic only when in swinish
- 30:34Speaker 16: sleep their drenched natures lie as in a death. What
- 30:38Speaker 16: cannot you and I perform upon the unguarded Duncan? What
- 30:44Speaker 16: not put upon his spongy officers, who shall bear the
- 30:47Speaker 16: guilt of our great quell?
- 30:50Speaker 5: Bring forth men, children only, for thy undaunted metal should
- 30:54Speaker 5: compose nothing but males. Will it not be received when
- 30:58Speaker 5: we have marked with blood the sleepy two of his
- 31:01Speaker 5: own chamber, and use their very daggers that they have
- 31:04Speaker 5: done it.
- 31:05Speaker 16: Who dares receive it? Other as we shall make our
- 31:09Speaker 16: griefs and clamor roar upon his death.
- 31:13Speaker 5: I am settled, and bend up each corporal agent to
- 31:17Speaker 5: this terrible feat away and mock the time with first
- 31:22Speaker 5: show false face must hide, but the false heart doth.

- 32:13Speaker 2: I take it tis later, sir, Oh.
- 32:15Speaker 6: Take my sword. There's husbandry in heaven. Their candles are

- 33:04Speaker 5: else should free have wrought all's well?
- 33:08Speaker 6: I dreamt last night of the three weird sisters to you.
- 33:12Speaker 6: They have showed some truth.
- 33:14Speaker 5: I think not of them. Yet, when we can entreat
- 33:18Speaker 5: an hour to serve, we would spend it, in some words,
- 33:21Speaker 5: upon that business. If you would grant the time.
- 33:24Speaker 6: At your kindest leisure, If you.
- 33:26Speaker 5: Shall cleave to my consent when tis it, shall make
- 33:30Speaker 5: honor for you.
- 33:31Speaker 6: So I lose none in seeking to augment it, but
- 33:34Speaker 6: still keep my bosom franchised and allegiance clear. I shall
- 33:38Speaker 6: be counseled good repose the while, Thanks sir the.
- 33:42Speaker 1: Like to you excellent banquet and flience.
- 33:46Speaker 5: Go bid thy mistress. When my drink is ready, she

- 33:54Speaker 5: Is this a dagger which I see before me? The
- 33:57Speaker 5: handle toward my hand? Come, Let me clutch THEE. I
- 34:02Speaker 5: have THEE not, and yet I see THEE. Still art
- 34:07Speaker 5: thou not fatal vision sensible to feeling as to sight
- 34:11Speaker 5: or art Thou but a dagger of the mind, a
- 34:14Speaker 5: false creation proceeding from the heat oppressed brain. I see
- 34:19Speaker 5: thee yet inform as palpable as this which now I
- 34:23Speaker 5: draw Thou marshalst me the way that I was going,
- 34:27Speaker 5: and such an instrument I was to use. Mine eyes
- 34:31Speaker 5: are made the fools of the other senses, or else
- 34:34Speaker 5: worth all the rest. I see thee still, and on
- 34:38Speaker 5: thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood, which was not
- 34:41Speaker 5: so before. There's no such thing. It is the bloody
- 34:46Speaker 5: business which informs thus to mine eyes. Now o'er the
- 34:49Speaker 5: one half world. Nature seems dead and wicked dreams abuse
- 34:54Speaker 5: the curtain's sleep. Witchcraft celebrates pale hecat's offerings and withered
- 34:59Speaker 5: me murder alarmed by his sentinel, the wolf, whose howls
- 35:03Speaker 5: his watch. Thus, with his stealthy pace, with Tarquin's ravishing
- 35:09Speaker 5: strides towards his design, moves like a ghost. Thou sure
- 35:14Speaker 5: and firm set earth, hear not my steps which way
- 35:17Speaker 5: they walk, for fear the very stones prate of my whereabout,
- 35:22Speaker 5: and take the present horror from the time which now
- 35:25Speaker 5: suits with it. Whiles I threat he lives words to
- 35:31Speaker 5: the heat of deeds two. Cold breath gives.
- 35:34Speaker 1: A bell rings.
- 35:37Speaker 5: I go, and it is done. The bell invites me.
- 35:41Speaker 5: Hear it not duncan, for it is a knell that
- 35:45Speaker 5: summons thee to heaven or to hell?
- 35:50Speaker 1: Exit Act two, Scene two. The same, Enter Lady Macbeth.
- 35:59Speaker 16: That which had made that drunk, hath made me bold?
- 36:02Speaker 16: What hath quenched them? Hath given me fire? Hark peace?
- 36:08Speaker 16: What was the owl that shrieked? The fatal bellman which
- 36:11Speaker 16: gives the strants good night? He is about it. The
- 36:17Speaker 16: doors are open, and the surfeited grooms do mock their
- 36:21Speaker 16: charge with snores. I have drugged their posts, that death
- 36:25Speaker 16: and nature do contend about them, whether they live or die?
- 36:30Speaker 1: Within?
- 36:31Speaker 5: Who's there?
- 36:32Speaker 23: What?
- 36:33Speaker 2: Ho alack?
- 36:35Speaker 16: I am afraid they have awaked, and tis not done.
- 36:39Speaker 16: The attempt and not the deed confounds us. Hark I
- 36:44Speaker 16: lay their daggers ready. He could not miss em. Had
- 36:48Speaker 16: he not resembled my father as he slept? I had
- 36:52Speaker 16: done it.
- 36:54Speaker 1: Enter Macbeth, my husband, I have done the deed.
- 37:00Speaker 5: Didst thou not hear a noise?
- 37:02Speaker 16: I heard the owl scream and the crickets cry? Did
- 37:05Speaker 16: not you speak?
- 37:07Speaker 5: When? Now as I descended I hark who lies in
- 37:14Speaker 5: the second chamber.
- 37:15Speaker 1: Donaldbaine, this is a sorry sight looking on his hands.
- 37:22Speaker 16: A foolish thought to say a sorry sight.
- 37:25Speaker 5: There's one did laugh in his sleep, and one cried murder.
- 37:29Speaker 5: That they did wake each other. I stood and heard them,
- 37:33Speaker 5: but they did say their prayers, and addressed them again
- 37:36Speaker 5: to sleep.
- 37:37Speaker 16: There are two lodged together.
- 37:40Speaker 5: One cried God bless us and amen, the other as
- 37:45Speaker 5: they had seen me with these hangman's hands, listening their fear,
- 37:48Speaker 5: I could not say amen when they did say God
- 37:51Speaker 5: bless us.
- 37:54Speaker 16: Consider it not so deeply.
- 37:56Speaker 5: But wherefore could I not pronounce Amen? I I had
- 38:00Speaker 5: most need of blessing, and Amen stuck in my throat.
- 38:04Speaker 16: These deeds must not be thought after these ways, so
- 38:07Speaker 16: it will make us mad.
- 38:09Speaker 5: Methought. I heard a voice cry, sleep no more, Macbeth
- 38:13Speaker 5: does murder. Sleep, the innocent sleep, sleep that knits up,
- 38:18Speaker 5: the raveled sleeve of care, the death of each day's life,
- 38:23Speaker 5: sore labor's bath, balm of hurt minds, great nature's second course,
- 38:28Speaker 5: chief nourisher in life's feast.
- 38:32Speaker 16: What do you mean?
- 38:34Speaker 30: Still?
- 38:34Speaker 5: It cried sleep no more to all the house glums
- 38:38Speaker 5: half murdered sleep, and therefore caught her shall sleep no more.
- 38:43Speaker 5: Macbeth shall sleep no more.
- 38:46Speaker 16: Who was it that thus cried my worthy thing? You
- 38:50Speaker 16: do unbend your noble strength to think so brainsickly of things?
- 38:55Speaker 16: Go get some water and wash the filthy witness from
- 38:57Speaker 16: your hand? Why did you bring these daggers from the
- 39:02Speaker 16: place they must lie there? Go carry them and smear
- 39:06Speaker 16: the sleeping rooms with blood.
- 39:08Speaker 5: I'll go no more. I am afraid to think what
- 39:11Speaker 5: I have done. Look on it again.
- 39:13Speaker 7: I dare not infirm of purpose.
- 39:17Speaker 16: Give me the daggers, the sleeping and the dead are as,
- 39:21Speaker 16: but pictures tis the eye of childhood that fears a
- 39:24Speaker 16: painted devil if he do bleed, I'll gild the faces
- 39:28Speaker 16: of the grooms withal, for it must seem their guilt.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Exit knocking within?
- 39:37Speaker 5: Whence is that knocking? How is it with me? When
- 39:41Speaker 5: every noise appalls me? What hands are here?
- 39:45Speaker 8: Hah?
- 39:46Speaker 5: They pluck out mine eyes? Will all great Neptune's ocean
- 39:50Speaker 5: wash this blood clean from my hand? No? This, my
- 39:54Speaker 5: hand will rather the multitudinous seizing incarnadine, making the green
- 39:59Speaker 5: one red re Enter, Lady Macbeth.

- 40:14Speaker 16: Hear a knocking at the south entry. Retire we to
- 40:17Speaker 16: our chamber. Little water clears us of this deed. How
- 40:21Speaker 16: easy is it? Then your constancy hath left you unattended?
- 40:27Speaker 1: Knocking within, hark more knocking.
- 40:31Speaker 16: Get on your nightgown. Letst occasion call us and show
- 40:34Speaker 16: us to be watchers. Be not lost so poorly in
- 40:37Speaker 16: your thoughts.

- 40:51Speaker 1: Excellent Act two, Scene three, the same knocking within and
- 41:00Speaker 1: porter he isn't knocking.
- 41:02Speaker 25: Indeed, if a man were porter of Elgate, he should

- 41:08Speaker 1: Key, knocking within, knock.
- 41:12Speaker 25: Knock, knock, who's there? In the name of the Elzebub.
- 41:17Speaker 25: He's a farmer that ain't himself on the expectation of plenty.

- 41:25Speaker 25: you'll sweat for.
- 41:26Speaker 1: It, knocking within, knock.
- 41:30Speaker 2: Knock, who's there?
- 41:33Speaker 25: The other devil's name faith. He is an equivocate tour
- 41:39Speaker 25: that could swear in both the scales against either scale
- 41:43Speaker 25: who committed treason enough for God's sake, yet could not
- 41:46Speaker 25: equivocate to Heaven. Oh, come in equivocate.
- 41:50Speaker 1: Tour knocking within, knock.
- 41:54Speaker 7: Knock, knock.
- 41:57Speaker 1: Who's there?

- 42:41Speaker 7: That you do lie so late?
- 42:43Speaker 26: Faith, sir?
- 42:44Speaker 25: We were carousing til the second Cock and drink, sir,
- 42:50Speaker 25: is a great provoker of three things?
- 42:53Speaker 7: What three things does drink especially provoke?
- 42:57Speaker 25: Mary? Sir? Nose, painting, sleep in urine? LETTERI, Sir, It
- 43:03Speaker 25: provokes and unprovokes. It provokes the desire, but it takes
- 43:08Speaker 25: away the performance. Therefore, much drink may be said to
- 43:12Speaker 25: be an equivocator with lettery. It makes him and it
- 43:17Speaker 25: mars him. It sets him on, and it takes him off.
- 43:21Speaker 25: It persuades him and disheartens him, makes him stand too huh,
- 43:26Speaker 25: and not stand too in conclusion, equivocates him in a sleep,
- 43:32Speaker 25: and giving him the lie leaves him.
- 43:35Speaker 7: I believe drink gave thee the lie last.
- 43:38Speaker 25: Night, that it did in the very throat on me.
- 43:44Speaker 25: But I requited him for his line, I think, being
- 43:47Speaker 25: too strong for him, though he took up my legs sometimes,
- 43:51Speaker 25: yet I made a shift to cast him.
- 43:54Speaker 7: Is thy master.
- 43:55Speaker 1: Stirring Andrew macbeth.
- 43:58Speaker 7: Our knocking has awaked him.

- 44:14Speaker 5: Hour i'll bring you to him.
- 44:17Speaker 7: I know this is a joyful trouble to you, But
- 44:19Speaker 7: yet tis one.
- 44:20Speaker 5: The labor we delight in physics pain.
- 44:23Speaker 7: This is the door I'll make so bold to call
- 44:26Speaker 7: for tis my limited service.
- 44:29Speaker 8: Exit goes the King hans today he does he did
- 44:33Speaker 8: a point. So the night has been unruly. Where we lay,
- 44:37Speaker 8: our chimneys were blown down, And as they say, lamenting
- 44:41Speaker 8: said eye the air of strange screams of death and
- 44:44Speaker 8: prophesying with accent terrible of dire, compunction and confused events
- 44:48Speaker 8: new hashed to the awful time. The obscure bird clamored
- 44:52Speaker 8: the livelong night. Some say the earth was faboroush and.
- 44:56Speaker 5: Did shake twas a rough night.
- 45:00Speaker 8: Young remembrance cannot parallel a fellow to it.
- 45:03Speaker 7: Re enter macduff, Oh, horror, horror, horror, tongue nor heart
- 45:09Speaker 7: cannot conceive nor name thee.
- 45:11Speaker 5: What's the matter?
- 45:13Speaker 7: Confusion? Now Hath made his masterpiece, most sacrilegious murder. Hath
- 45:18Speaker 7: broke up the Lord's anointed temple and still fence the
- 45:22Speaker 7: life of the building.
- 45:23Speaker 5: What is it?
- 45:24Speaker 8: You say, the life mean you his majesty, approach.
- 45:28Speaker 7: The chamber and destroy your sight with a new gorgan,
- 45:31Speaker 7: and do not bid me speak see and then speak
- 45:35Speaker 7: yourselves excellent.
- 45:36Speaker 1: Macbeth and Lennox.
- 45:39Speaker 7: Awake, awake, ring the alarum bell murdered and treason Benque
- 45:45Speaker 7: and Donald Bain Malcolm awake, shake off this drowsy sleep.
- 45:49Speaker 7: Death's cout of it, and look on death itself. Up
- 45:52Speaker 7: up and see the great Doom's image, Malcolm Bank, woe
- 45:58Speaker 7: as from your graves, right up and walk like sprites
- 46:02Speaker 7: to countenance this horror.
- 46:04Speaker 1: Ring the bell bell rings, Enter, Lady Macbeth.
- 46:09Speaker 16: What's the business that such a hideous trumpet calls to parley?
- 46:13Speaker 16: The sleepers of the house speak.
- 46:15Speaker 7: Speak, Oh gentle lady, It is not for you to
- 46:19Speaker 7: hear what I can speak for the repetition in a
- 46:22Speaker 7: woman's ear? What murder as it fell?
- 46:25Speaker 1: Enter banquo, Oh.
- 46:27Speaker 7: Banquo, banquo, A royal master's murdered?
- 46:31Speaker 16: Whoa alas? What in our house?
- 46:36Speaker 6: Too cruel anywhere? Dear duff I prithee, contradict myself and
- 46:41Speaker 6: say it is not so re.
- 46:43Speaker 1: Enter Macbeth and Lennox with ross.
- 46:46Speaker 5: Had I but died an hour before this chance. I
- 46:49Speaker 5: had lived a blessed time. For from this instant there's
- 46:53Speaker 5: nothing serious. Immortality all is but toys, renowning. Grace is dead,
- 47:00Speaker 5: The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees
- 47:02Speaker 5: has left this vault to brag of.
- 47:05Speaker 1: Enter Malcolm and Donald Baine.
- 47:08Speaker 4: What is a.
- 47:08Speaker 26: Miss you are?
- 47:10Speaker 5: And do not know it? The spring the head, the
- 47:13Speaker 5: fountain of your blood is stopped. The very source of
- 47:16Speaker 5: it is stopped.
- 47:18Speaker 7: Your royal fathers murdered.
- 47:21Speaker 8: Oh by whom those of his chamber, as it seemed
- 47:26Speaker 8: had done it. Their hands and faces were abashed with blood,
- 47:29Speaker 8: so were their daggers, which unwiped be found upon their pillows.
- 47:32Speaker 8: They stared and were distracted. No man's life was to
- 47:36Speaker 8: be trusted with them.
- 47:37Speaker 5: Oh yet I do repent me of my fury that
- 47:40Speaker 5: I did kill them?
- 47:41Speaker 7: Wherefore did you sow?
- 47:43Speaker 5: Who can be wise, amazed, tempered and furious, loyal and
- 47:48Speaker 5: neutral in a moment? No man, the expedition my violent
- 47:52Speaker 5: love outrun the pauser. Reason Here lay Duncan, his silver
- 47:58Speaker 5: skin laced with his golden blood, and his gashed stabs
- 48:02Speaker 5: look like a breach in nature for Ruin's wasteful entrance.
- 48:06Speaker 5: There the murderers steeped in the colors of their trade.
- 48:11Speaker 5: Their daggers are mannerly breached with gore. Who could refrain
- 48:15Speaker 5: that had a heart to love and in that heart
- 48:18Speaker 5: courage to make love known?
- 48:21Speaker 16: Help me?
- 48:22Speaker 7: Hence, ho look to the.
- 48:24Speaker 1: Lady Aside to Donald Bain, why do we.
- 48:28Speaker 3: Hold our tongues that most may claim this argument for ours?
- 48:31Speaker 1: Aside?
- 48:32Speaker 4: To Malcolm, what should be spoken here? Where our fate
- 48:36Speaker 4: hid in an augur hole? May Russian sees us Let's away.
- 48:40Speaker 4: Our tears are not yet.
- 48:41Speaker 1: Brood aside to Donaldbain.
- 48:44Speaker 3: Nor our strong sorrow upon the foot of motion.
- 48:48Speaker 1: Look to the lady, Lady Macbeth is carried out.
- 48:52Speaker 6: And when we have our naked frailties head that suffer
- 48:55Speaker 6: and exposure, let us meet and question this most bloody
- 49:00Speaker 6: piece of work. To know it further fears and scruple
- 49:04Speaker 6: shake us in the great hand of God. I stand
- 49:08Speaker 6: and thence against the undivulged pretense. I fight if treasonous malice.
- 49:13Speaker 7: And so do I.
- 49:14Speaker 5: So all, let's briefly put on manly readiness and meet
- 49:19Speaker 5: in the hall together.
- 49:20Speaker 1: Well contented, excellent all, but Malcolm and Donaldbaine, what.
- 49:26Speaker 7: Will you do?
- 49:27Speaker 3: Let's not consort with them? To show an unfelt sorrow
- 49:31Speaker 3: is an office which the false man does easy. I'le
- 49:34Speaker 3: to England, to Ireland.
- 49:37Speaker 4: I our separated fortune shall keep us both the safer.
- 49:41Speaker 4: Where we are there is daggers in men's smiles, the
- 49:45Speaker 4: near in blood, the nearer bloody.
- 49:49Speaker 3: This murderous shaft that shot hath not yet lighted, And
- 49:53Speaker 3: our safest way is to avoid the aim. Therefore to horse,
- 49:56Speaker 3: and let us not be dainty of leave taking, but
- 49:59Speaker 3: shift away. There's warrant in that theft which steals itself
- 50:03Speaker 3: when there's no mercy left.
- 50:06Speaker 1: Excellent Act two, Scene four outside Macbeth's castle, enter ross
- 50:15Speaker 1: and an old.
- 50:15Speaker 32: Man three's gore, and ten I can remember well within
- 50:21Speaker 32: the volume of which time I have seen ours dreadful
- 50:26Speaker 32: and things strange. But this sore night hath trifled the
- 50:31Speaker 32: former knowings.
- 50:33Speaker 9: Ah, good father, thou seest the heavens as troubled with
- 50:36Speaker 9: man's act threaten his bloody stage. By the clock tis day,
- 50:40Speaker 9: and yet dark night strangles the traveling lamp. It's night's
- 50:44Speaker 9: predominance or the day's shame. The darkness doth the face
- 50:47Speaker 9: of earth and tomb. When living light should kiss.
- 50:50Speaker 33: It, tis unnatural, even like the deed that's done on
- 50:56Speaker 33: Tuesday last. A falcon towering in her pride of place
- 51:02Speaker 33: was by a mousing owl hawked at and killed.
- 51:07Speaker 9: And Duncan's horses a thing most strange and certain, beauteous
- 51:11Speaker 9: and swift. The minions of their race turned wild in nature,
- 51:14Speaker 9: broke their stalls, flung out, contending against obedience, as they
- 51:18Speaker 9: would make war with mankind.
- 51:21Speaker 32: Dis said they eat each other.
- 51:24Speaker 9: They did so to the amazement of mine eyes that
- 51:26Speaker 9: looked upon Here comes the good mac Duff.
- 51:29Speaker 1: Enter mac Duff, how goes the world?
- 51:32Speaker 3: Sir?
- 51:32Speaker 7: Now? Why see you not?
- 51:36Speaker 9: It's known who did this? More than bloody.
- 51:38Speaker 7: Deed, those that Macbeth hath slain.
- 51:41Speaker 3: Alas the day.
- 51:42Speaker 9: What good could they pretend?
- 51:45Speaker 7: They were suborned? Malcolm and Donalbain, the King's two sons
- 51:48Speaker 7: are stolen away and fled, which puts upon them suspicion
- 51:52Speaker 7: of the.
- 51:52Speaker 9: Deed gainst nature still thriftless ambition that wilt raven up
- 51:58Speaker 9: thine own life's means. Then tis most like the sovereignty
- 52:01Speaker 9: will fall upon Macbeth.
- 52:03Speaker 7: He is already named and gaunt to Scone to be invested.
- 52:07Speaker 9: Where is Duncan's body?
- 52:09Speaker 7: Carry to Comachail, the sacred storehouse of his predecessors and
- 52:13Speaker 7: guardian of their bones? Will you to Scone, no, cousin,
- 52:18Speaker 7: I'll to fife well, I will bither well. May you
- 52:23Speaker 7: see things well done? There? Adieu, lest our old robes
- 52:27Speaker 7: sit easier than are new.
- 52:30Speaker 32: Farewell, father God's benison, go with ye and with those
- 52:36Speaker 32: that would make good of bad and friends.

- 53:24Speaker 6: weird women promised, And I fear thou plait'st most foully fought.
- 53:31Speaker 6: Yet it was said it should not stand in thy posterity,
- 53:35Speaker 6: but that myself should be the root and father of
- 53:37Speaker 6: many kings. If there come truth from them, as upon
- 53:42Speaker 6: thee Macbeth, their speeches shine. Why by the verities on
- 53:46Speaker 6: thee made good, may they not be my oracles as well?
- 53:50Speaker 6: And set me up in hope.
- 53:51Speaker 7: But hush no.

- 54:03Speaker 5: Here's our chief guest.

- 54:08Speaker 16: gap in our great feast, and all thing unbecoming.

- 54:15Speaker 5: request your presence.

- 54:21Speaker 6: duties are, with the most indissoluble tie forever.
- 54:24Speaker 5: Knit ride you this afternoon, Ay, my good lord, we
- 54:29Speaker 5: should have else desired your good advice, which still hath
- 54:32Speaker 5: been both grave and prosperous in this day's council, but
- 54:36Speaker 5: will take tomorrow. Is it far you ride.
- 54:39Speaker 6: As far, my lord, as will fill up the time
- 54:42Speaker 6: TwixT this and supper. Go not my horse, the better
- 54:45Speaker 6: I must become a borrower of the night for a
- 54:47Speaker 6: dark hour, or twain fail not our feast, my lord,
- 54:52Speaker 6: I will not we hear.
- 54:55Speaker 5: Our bloody cousins are bestowed in England and in Ireland,
- 54:58Speaker 5: not confessing their cruel parricide, filling their hearers with strange invention.
- 55:04Speaker 5: But of that tomorrow, when there withal we shall have
- 55:07Speaker 5: cause of state craving us jointly hie you to horse,
- 55:11Speaker 5: adieu till you return at night goes flance with you, Ay,
- 55:16Speaker 5: my good lord.
- 55:17Speaker 6: A time does call upons.
- 55:19Speaker 5: I wish your horse is swift and sure afoot, and
- 55:22Speaker 5: so I do commend you to their backs.
- 55:24Speaker 1: Farewell, Exit Banquo.
- 55:27Speaker 5: Let every man be master of his time. Till seven
- 55:30Speaker 5: at night, to make society the sweeter welcome. We will
- 55:33Speaker 5: keep ourselves till supper time alone, while then God be with.
- 55:38Speaker 1: You, Excillent, all but Macbeth and an attendant.
- 55:42Speaker 5: Sarah, a word with you. Attend those men our pleasure.
- 55:46Speaker 24: They are my lord without the palace gate.
- 55:49Speaker 5: Bring them before us exit attendant. To be thus is
- 55:53Speaker 5: nothing but to be safely. Thus our fears in banquet
- 55:58Speaker 5: stick deep, and in his royalty of nature reigns that
- 56:01Speaker 5: which would be feared tis much he dares. And to
- 56:05Speaker 5: that dauntless temper of his mind he hath a wisdom
- 56:08Speaker 5: that doth guide his valor to act in safety. There
- 56:12Speaker 5: is none but he whose being I do fear, and
- 56:16Speaker 5: under him my genius is rebuked. As it is said
- 56:20Speaker 5: marc Antony's was by Caesar. He ched the sisters, when
- 56:24Speaker 5: first they put the name of king upon me, and
- 56:27Speaker 5: bade them speak to him, then prophet, like they hailed
- 56:31Speaker 5: him father to a line of kings. Upon my head.
- 56:34Speaker 5: They placed a fruitless crown and put a barren scepter
- 56:38Speaker 5: in my grape. Thence to be wrenched from an unlineal hand,
- 56:42Speaker 5: no son of mine succeeding, if it be so for
- 56:46Speaker 5: Banquo's issue. Have I filed my mind for them? The
- 56:49Speaker 5: gracious duncan have I murdered, but rancors in the vessel
- 56:53Speaker 5: of my peace only for them and mine eternal jewel
- 56:57Speaker 5: given to the common enemy of man, to make them kings,
- 57:01Speaker 5: the seed of Banquo kings. Rather than so, come fate
- 57:06Speaker 5: into our list and champion me to the utterance. Who's there?
- 57:12Speaker 1: Re enter attendant with two murderers.
- 57:15Speaker 5: Now go to the door and stay there.
- 57:17Speaker 1: Till we call exit attendant.
- 57:21Speaker 5: Was it not yesterday we spoke together?
- 57:24Speaker 26: It was so, please your highness.
- 57:27Speaker 5: Well, then, now have you considered of my speeches, Know
- 57:31Speaker 5: that it was he in the times past which held
- 57:33Speaker 5: you so under fortune, which you thought had been our
- 57:36Speaker 5: innocent self. This I made good to you, and our
- 57:39Speaker 5: last conference passed in probation with you. How you were
- 57:43Speaker 5: born in hand? How crossed the instruments? Who wrought with them?
- 57:47Speaker 5: And all things else that might to half a soul
- 57:50Speaker 5: and to a notion crazed? Say, thus did Banquo.
- 57:54Speaker 26: You made it known to us?
- 57:56Speaker 5: I did so and went further, which is now point
- 58:00Speaker 5: of second meeting. Do you find your patients so predominant
- 58:04Speaker 5: in your nature that you can let this go? Are
- 58:07Speaker 5: you so gospel to pray for this good man and
- 58:10Speaker 5: for his issue, whose heavy hand hath bowed you to
- 58:13Speaker 5: the grave and beggared yours forever.
- 58:16Speaker 26: We are men, my age.
- 58:18Speaker 5: Ay, in the catalog you go for men as hounds
- 58:22Speaker 5: and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs, shofts, water rugs, and demi
- 58:27Speaker 5: wolves are clept all by the name of dogs. The
- 58:31Speaker 5: valued file distinguishes the swift, the slough, the subtle, the housekeeper,
- 58:36Speaker 5: the hunter, every one according to the gift which bounteous
- 58:40Speaker 5: nature hath in him closed, whereby he does receive particular
- 58:45Speaker 5: addition from the bill that writes them all alike, and
- 58:48Speaker 5: so of men. Now, if you have a station in
- 58:52Speaker 5: the file, not in the worst rank of manhood, say it,
- 58:56Speaker 5: I will put that business in your bosoms. Whose execution
- 59:00Speaker 5: takes your enemy off grapples you to the heart and
- 59:04Speaker 5: love of us, who wear our health but sickly in
- 59:07Speaker 5: his life, which in his death were perfect.
- 59:10Speaker 27: I am one, my liege, whom the vile blows and
- 59:13Speaker 27: buffets of the world have so incensed that I am
- 59:16Speaker 27: reckless what I do to spite the world.
- 59:19Speaker 26: And a an allah, so weary with disasters, tugged with fortune,
- 59:23Speaker 26: that I would set my life on any chance to
- 59:26Speaker 26: mend it or be ridance.
- 59:29Speaker 5: Both of you know Banquet was your enemy, true, my lord,
- 59:33Speaker 5: so is he mine, and in such bloody distance, that
- 59:37Speaker 5: every minute of his being thrust against my nearest of life.
- 59:41Speaker 5: And though I could, with bare face power sweep him
- 59:44Speaker 5: from my sight and bid my will avouch it, yet
- 59:48Speaker 5: I must not. For certain friends that are both his
- 59:51Speaker 5: and mine, whose loves I may not drop, but wail
- 59:55Speaker 5: his fall, who I myself struck down. And thence it
- 59:59Speaker 5: is that I, to your assistance, do make love, masking
- 1:00:02Speaker 5: the business from the common eye. For sundry, weighty reasons.
- 1:00:07Speaker 27: We shall, my Lord, perform what you command us.
- 1:00:10Speaker 5: Though all lives your spirits shine through you. Within this
- 1:00:15Speaker 5: hour at most I will advise you where to plant yourselves,
- 1:00:19Speaker 5: acquaint you with the perfect spy of the time, the
- 1:00:22Speaker 5: moment on it, for it must be done to night,
- 1:00:25Speaker 5: and something from the palace always thought that I require
- 1:00:28Speaker 5: a clearness, and with him to leave no rubs nor
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: botches in the work Fleance's son that keeps him company,
- 1:00:37Speaker 5: whose absence is no less material to me than is
- 1:00:40Speaker 5: his father's must embrace the fate of that dark hour.
- 1:00:44Speaker 5: Resolve yourselves apart. I'll come to you Anon.
- 1:00:48Speaker 26: We are resolved, my lord, I'll.
- 1:00:50Speaker 5: Call upon you straight abide within accillent murderers. It is concluded.
- 1:00:58Speaker 5: Banquo thy soul's flight. If it fine, heaven must find
- 1:01:02Speaker 5: it out.
- 1:01:03Speaker 10: To night.
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: Exit, Act three, Scene two, the palace. Enter Lady Macbeth
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: and a servant.
- 1:01:15Speaker 16: Is Banquet gone from court.
- 1:01:17Speaker 24: Ay madam, but returns again to night.
- 1:01:21Speaker 16: Say to the king, I would attend his leisure for
- 1:01:23Speaker 16: a few.
- 1:01:24Speaker 24: Words, Madam, I will exit.
- 1:01:29Speaker 16: Knots had all spent where our desire is got without content,
- 1:01:35Speaker 16: tis safer to be that which we destroy than by destruction,
- 1:01:40Speaker 16: dwell in doubtful joy. Enter Macbeth, How now, my lord,
- 1:01:47Speaker 16: why do you keep alone of sorriest fancies your companion's making,
- 1:01:53Speaker 16: using those thoughts which should indeed have died with them.
- 1:01:56Speaker 16: They think on things without all. Remedy should be without regard.
- 1:02:01Speaker 16: What's done is done.
- 1:02:04Speaker 5: We have scotched the snake, not killed it. She'll close
- 1:02:08Speaker 5: and be herself, whilst our poor malice remains in danger
- 1:02:11Speaker 5: of her former tooth. But let the frame of things disjoint.
- 1:02:16Speaker 5: Both the world suffer. Ere we will eat our meal
- 1:02:19Speaker 5: in fear and sleep in the affliction of these terrible
- 1:02:22Speaker 5: dreams that shake us nightly. Better be with the dead,
- 1:02:26Speaker 5: whom we to gain our peace have sent to peace,
- 1:02:30Speaker 5: than on the torture of the mind, to lie in
- 1:02:32Speaker 5: restless ecstasy. Duncan is in his grave, after life's fitful fever.
- 1:02:38Speaker 5: He sleeps well. Treason has done his worst. Nor steal,
- 1:02:43Speaker 5: nor poison, malice, domestic, foreign levy, nothing can touch him further.
- 1:02:49Speaker 16: Come on, gentle, my lord, sleek o'er your rugged looks
- 1:02:54Speaker 16: be bright and jovial among your guests.
- 1:02:57Speaker 5: Tonight, so shall I, and so I pray be you
- 1:03:02Speaker 5: let your remembrance supplied Banquoe present him eminence both with
- 1:03:07Speaker 5: eye and tongue unsafe the while that we must love
- 1:03:11Speaker 5: our honors in these flattering streams, and make our faces
- 1:03:15Speaker 5: vizards to our hearts, disguising what they are.
- 1:03:19Speaker 16: You must leave this.
- 1:03:22Speaker 5: Ho full of scorpions. Is my mind, dear wife. Thou
- 1:03:26Speaker 5: know'st that Banquo and his flaance lives.
- 1:03:30Speaker 16: But in them nature's copies, not a turn.
- 1:03:33Speaker 5: There's comfort, yet they are assailable. Then be thou jockund
- 1:03:38Speaker 5: ere the bat hath flown his cloistered flight. Heir to

- 1:10:53Speaker 5: The times have been that when the brains were out,

- 1:10:59Speaker 5: they rise again with twenty mortal murders on their crowns,
- 1:11:04Speaker 5: and push us from our stools. This is more strange
- 1:11:07Speaker 5: than such a murder, is, my.
- 1:11:10Speaker 16: Worthy Lord, Your noble friends.
- 1:11:13Speaker 5: Do lack you I do forget. Do not muse it me,

- 1:11:55Speaker 30: Let the earth hide thee Thy bones are marrowless, Thy
- 1:11:59Speaker 30: blood is cold, thou hast no speculation in those eyes
- 1:12:02Speaker 30: which thou dost glare with.
- 1:12:05Speaker 16: Think of this, good peers, But as a thing of
- 1:12:07Speaker 16: custom tis no other. Only it spoils the pleasure of
- 1:12:11Speaker 16: the time.
- 1:12:13Speaker 5: What man, dare I dare approach thou, like the rugged
- 1:12:17Speaker 5: Russian bear, the armed rhinoceros, or the hurricane tiger, take
- 1:12:22Speaker 5: any shape, but that in my firm nerves shall never
- 1:12:26Speaker 5: tremble or be alive again. And dare me to the
- 1:12:29Speaker 5: desert with thy sword. If trembling I inhabit, then protest
- 1:12:34Speaker 5: me the baby of a girl. Hence horrible shadow, unreal mockery.
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: Hence ghost of banquet vanishes.
- 1:12:45Speaker 5: Why so, being God, I am a man again? Pray
- 1:12:51Speaker 5: you sit still.
- 1:12:54Speaker 16: You have displaced the mirth, broke the good meeting with
- 1:12:57Speaker 16: most admired disorder?
- 1:13:00Speaker 5: Can such things be and overcome us like a summer's
- 1:13:03Speaker 5: cloud without our special wonder? You make me strange, even
- 1:13:08Speaker 5: to the disposition that I owe. When now I think
- 1:13:11Speaker 5: you can behold such sights and keep the natural ruby
- 1:13:15Speaker 5: of your cheeks, when mine is blanched with fear?
- 1:13:18Speaker 9: What sights, my Lord?
- 1:13:20Speaker 16: I pray you speak not. He grows worse and worse.
- 1:13:23Speaker 16: Question enrages him at once good night. Stand not upon

- 1:18:12Speaker 8: two delinquent steer that were the slaves of drink and
- 1:18:15Speaker 8: thralls of sleep? Was not that normally done? A and
- 1:18:19Speaker 8: wisely too, for it would had angered and heart alive
- 1:18:23Speaker 8: to hear the men denied. So that I say he
- 1:18:26Speaker 8: has borne all things well. And I do think that

- 1:18:58Speaker 12: received of the most pious Edward with such grace that

- 1:23:49Speaker 20: Answer me to what I ask you speak, demand will answer.
- 1:23:57Speaker 19: Say if thou'st rather hear it from our mouth or
- 1:24:00Speaker 19: from our.
- 1:24:00Speaker 5: Masters column, let me see him.
- 1:24:04Speaker 19: Poor and sow's blood that hath eaten her nine Pharaoh,
- 1:24:08Speaker 19: grease at sweeten from the murderer's gibbet, throw into the flame.
- 1:24:13Speaker 21: How high lo thyself defly show.
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: Thunder? First apparition, an armed head.
- 1:24:23Speaker 5: Tell me thou unknown power.
- 1:24:26Speaker 19: He knows thy thought. Hear his speech, But say thou.
- 1:24:30Speaker 10: Not Macbeth, Mercbeth, Marcbeth, beware macduff, beware the thing of fife.
- 1:24:42Speaker 10: Dismiss me enough.
- 1:24:46Speaker 5: Descends whats soo ae'er thou art for thy good caution,
- 1:24:51Speaker 5: Thanks thou hast harped my fear aright, But one word more.
- 1:24:57Speaker 19: He will not be commanded. Here's another more potent than.
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: The first thunder. Second apparition, a bloody child.
- 1:25:06Speaker 34: Mabirth, Macbeth, Macbeth.
- 1:25:11Speaker 5: Had I three years, i'd hear thee.
- 1:25:15Speaker 34: Be bloody, bold and resolute, love to scone the power
- 1:25:21Speaker 34: of man. The none of women born shall hum Macbeth.
- 1:25:28Speaker 5: Descends, then live Macduff. What need I fear of thee.
- 1:25:35Speaker 5: But yet I'll make assurance, double sure, and take a
- 1:25:38Speaker 5: bond of fate. Thou shalt not live, that I may tell,
- 1:25:42Speaker 5: pale hearted fear it lies and sleep in spite of
- 1:25:45Speaker 5: thunder thunder.
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: Third apparition, a child crowned with a tree in his hand.
- 1:25:52Speaker 5: What is this that rises like the issue of a
- 1:25:55Speaker 5: king and wears upon his baby brow the round and
- 1:25:58Speaker 5: top of sovereignty?
- 1:26:00Speaker 20: Listen, but speak not to it?
- 1:26:04Speaker 35: Be ling, mettle, proud, and take no care who chafs,
- 1:26:07Speaker 35: who frets, or where conspires are Macbeth shall never vanquished,
- 1:26:12Speaker 35: be until great Burnhamwood to high Dusney Hill shall come
- 1:26:16Speaker 35: against him descends.
- 1:26:19Speaker 5: That will never be. Who can impress the forest, bid
- 1:26:23Speaker 5: the tree, n fix his earth bound root, sweet boadments,
- 1:26:27Speaker 5: good rebellion's head rise. Never till the wood of Burnham rise,
- 1:26:32Speaker 5: and our high placed Macbeth shall live the lease of nature,
- 1:26:36Speaker 5: pay his breath to time immortal custom. Yet my heart
- 1:26:40Speaker 5: throbs to know one thing. Tell me, if your art
- 1:26:44Speaker 5: can tell so much, shall Banquo's issue ever reign in
- 1:26:48Speaker 5: this kingdom?
- 1:26:50Speaker 22: Seek to know no more?
- 1:26:53Speaker 5: I will be satisfied. Deny me this, and an eternal
- 1:26:56Speaker 5: curse fall on you. Let me know why sinks that cauldron?
- 1:27:02Speaker 5: And what noise is this?
- 1:27:04Speaker 20: Oh boys, show show shoe, show his eyes, and greathe
- 1:27:12Speaker 20: his hot come like shadows.
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: So depart a show of eight kings, the last with
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: a glass in his hand, ghost of Banquet following.
- 1:27:24Speaker 5: Thou art too like the spirit of Banquo. Down thy crown,
- 1:27:29Speaker 5: do seer mine eyeballs and thy hair. Thou other gold
- 1:27:33Speaker 5: bound brow is like the first. A third is like
- 1:27:36Speaker 5: the former, filthy hags? Why do you show me this?
- 1:27:41Speaker 5: A fourth start eyes? What will the line stretch out
- 1:27:46Speaker 5: to the crack of doom?
- 1:27:48Speaker 7: Another?
- 1:27:48Speaker 30: Yet a seventh I'll see no more. And yet the
- 1:27:53Speaker 30: eighth appears, who bears a glass which shows me many more?
- 1:27:57Speaker 30: And some I see that twofold balls and treble scepters
- 1:28:01Speaker 30: carry horrible sight. Now I see tis true, for the
- 1:28:06Speaker 30: blood boltered Banquo smiles upon me and points at them for.
- 1:28:10Speaker 1: His apparitions vanish What is this so.
- 1:28:17Speaker 19: Ay, sir, all this is so? But why stance Macbeth
- 1:28:21Speaker 19: thus amazedly? Come sisters, cheery up his sprites and show
- 1:28:26Speaker 19: the best of our delights. I'll charm the air to
- 1:28:29Speaker 19: give a sound while you perform your antiq round that
- 1:28:32Speaker 19: this great king may kindly say our duties. Did his
- 1:28:35Speaker 19: welcome pay music?
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: The witches dance and then vanish with hecatey.
- 1:28:41Speaker 5: Where are they gone? Let this pernicious hours die, I
- 1:28:46Speaker 5: accused in the calendar. Come in without there, enter.
- 1:28:52Speaker 15: Lennox, what is your grass?
- 1:28:55Speaker 8: As well?
- 1:28:56Speaker 5: Saw you the weird sisters? No, my Lord, came they
- 1:29:00Speaker 5: not by you?
- 1:29:02Speaker 8: No? Indeed, my Lord infected.
- 1:29:05Speaker 7: Be the heir?
- 1:29:05Speaker 5: Whereon they ride? And damn'd all those that trust them.
- 1:29:09Speaker 5: I did hear the galloping of horse? Who was it?
- 1:29:12Speaker 5: Came by?
- 1:29:13Speaker 8: Is two or three?
- 1:29:14Speaker 7: My lord?
- 1:29:15Speaker 8: That bring your word? Macduff is fled to England.
- 1:29:19Speaker 5: Fled to England. Ay, my good lord, time thou anticipatest
- 1:29:25Speaker 5: my dread exploits the flighty purpose, never as o'ertook, unless
- 1:29:29Speaker 5: the deed go with it. From this moment the very
- 1:29:32Speaker 5: firstlings of my heart shall be the firstlings of my hand,
- 1:29:37Speaker 5: And even now to crown my thoughts with axe, be
- 1:29:40Speaker 5: it thought and done. The castle of Macduff, I will surprise,
- 1:29:44Speaker 5: seize upon Fife, Give to the edge of the sword,
- 1:29:48Speaker 5: his wife, his babes, and all unfortunate souls that trace
- 1:29:52Speaker 5: him in his line. No boasting like a fool, this
- 1:29:56Speaker 5: deed I'll do before this purpose. Cool, but no more.
- 1:30:01Speaker 5: Where are these gentlemen? Come? Bring me where they are.
- 1:30:05Speaker 1: Excillant, Act four, Scene two, Fife Macduff's castle. Enter Lady Macduff,
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: her son and ross.
- 1:30:17Speaker 17: What had he done to make him fly the land?
- 1:30:20Speaker 9: You must have patience, madam.
- 1:30:23Speaker 17: He had none. His flight was madness. When our actions
- 1:30:27Speaker 17: do not, our fears do make us traitors.
- 1:30:30Speaker 9: You know not whether it was his wisdom or his fear.
- 1:30:34Speaker 17: Wisdom to leave his wife, to leave his babes, his mansion,
- 1:30:38Speaker 17: and his titles in a place from whence himself does fly.
- 1:30:41Speaker 17: He loves us not. He wants the natural touch. For
- 1:30:45Speaker 17: the poor wren, the most diminutive of birds, will fight
- 1:30:49Speaker 17: her young ones in her nest against the owl. All
- 1:30:53Speaker 17: is the fear, and nothing is the love, as little
- 1:30:56Speaker 17: as the wisdom, where the flight so runs against all reason.
- 1:31:00Speaker 9: My dearest cousin I pray you school yourself, but for
- 1:31:03Speaker 9: your husband. He is noble, wise, judicious, and best knows
- 1:31:06Speaker 9: the fits of the season. I dare not speak much further.
- 1:31:09Speaker 9: But cruel are the times when we are traitors and
- 1:31:12Speaker 9: do not know ourselves, when we hold rumor from what
- 1:31:14Speaker 9: we fear, yet know not what we fear. But float
- 1:31:17Speaker 9: upon a wild and violent sea. Each way and move.
- 1:31:21Speaker 9: I take my leave of you. Shall not be long,
- 1:31:22Speaker 9: but I'll be here again. Things, at the worst will cease,
- 1:31:25Speaker 9: or else climb upward to what they were before. My
- 1:31:28Speaker 9: pretty cousin, blessing upon.
- 1:31:30Speaker 17: You fathered he is, and yet he's fatherless.
- 1:31:35Speaker 9: I am so much a fool. Should I stay longer,
- 1:31:37Speaker 9: it would be my disgrace in your discomfort. I take
- 1:31:40Speaker 9: my leave at once.
- 1:31:42Speaker 17: Exit, Sarah, your father's dead? And what will you do now?
- 1:31:47Speaker 17: How will you live?
- 1:31:49Speaker 10: As birds?
- 1:31:50Speaker 8: Do?
- 1:31:50Speaker 15: Mother?
- 1:31:50Speaker 17: What with worms and flies?
- 1:31:53Speaker 10: With what I get? I mean? And so do they?
- 1:31:56Speaker 17: Poor bird doubts, never fear the nat, nor lime, the pitchforn,
- 1:31:59Speaker 17: nor the gin.
- 1:32:00Speaker 10: Why should I mother? Poor birds? They are not set?
- 1:32:03Speaker 10: For my father is not dead.
- 1:32:05Speaker 17: For all you're saying, yes he is dead, How wilt
- 1:32:09Speaker 17: thou do for a father.
- 1:32:10Speaker 10: Nay, how will you do for a husband?
- 1:32:12Speaker 17: Why I can buy me twenty at any.
- 1:32:15Speaker 10: Market, then you'll buy him to sell again?
- 1:32:17Speaker 17: Thou speaks with all thy wit? And yet if he
- 1:32:20Speaker 17: had wit enough?
- 1:32:21Speaker 10: For thee was my father a trader? Mother?
- 1:32:24Speaker 17: I that he was?
- 1:32:27Speaker 10: What is a trader?
- 1:32:28Speaker 17: Why one that swears and lies?
- 1:32:31Speaker 10: And be all traders that do so?
- 1:32:33Speaker 17: Everyone that does so is a traitor and must be hanged.
- 1:32:36Speaker 10: And must they all be hanged that swear and lie?
- 1:32:39Speaker 17: Everyone who must hang them? Why the honest men?
- 1:32:44Speaker 10: Then the liars and swears are fools, For there are
- 1:32:47Speaker 10: liars and swears. And now to beat the honest men
- 1:32:49Speaker 10: and hang up them?
- 1:32:51Speaker 17: Now, God help thee, poor monkey. But how wilt thou
- 1:32:54Speaker 17: do for a father?
- 1:32:55Speaker 10: If he were dead? You'll weep for him? If you
- 1:32:58Speaker 10: would not, it were a good signed that I should
- 1:33:00Speaker 10: quickly have a new father.
- 1:33:02Speaker 1: Poor prattler, how thou talkt enter a messenger?
- 1:33:07Speaker 28: Bless you, fair dame, I am not to you known,
- 1:33:10Speaker 28: though in your state of honor I am perfect. I
- 1:33:13Speaker 28: doubt some danger does approach you nearly if you will
- 1:33:16Speaker 28: take a homely man's advice be not found here. Hence
- 1:33:20Speaker 28: with your little ones, to fright you. Thus, methings, I
- 1:33:24Speaker 28: am too savage to do worse to you without cruelty,
- 1:33:28Speaker 28: which is too nigh your person. Heaven preserve you. I
- 1:33:33Speaker 28: dare abide no longer.
- 1:33:35Speaker 1: Exit.
- 1:33:36Speaker 17: Whither should I fly? I have done no harm, but
- 1:33:40Speaker 17: I remember now I am in this earthly world, where
- 1:33:42Speaker 17: to do harm is often laudable. To do good sometime
- 1:33:46Speaker 17: account a dangerous folly. Why then, alas do I put
- 1:33:49Speaker 17: up that womanly defense to say I have done no harm?
- 1:33:52Speaker 1: Enter murderers?
- 1:33:54Speaker 17: What are these faces?
- 1:33:55Speaker 26: Where's your husband?
- 1:33:57Speaker 17: I hope in no place so unsanctified were such as
- 1:33:59Speaker 17: thou may find him a trit.
- 1:34:01Speaker 10: Eh though liest thou shag haired villain.
- 1:34:04Speaker 1: Watch you egg stabbing him young.
- 1:34:07Speaker 26: Fry of treachery.
- 1:34:09Speaker 10: He has killed the mother.
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: Run away, I pray you dies. Exit Lady Macduff crying
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: murder excillent murderers following.
- 1:34:19Speaker 5: Her bring me where they.
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: Are excient Act four, Scene three, England, before the King's Palace.
- 1:34:29Speaker 1: Enter Malcolm and Macduff.
- 1:34:32Speaker 3: Let us seek out some desolate shade, and there weep
- 1:34:35Speaker 3: our sad bosoms empty.
- 1:34:38Speaker 7: Let us rather hold fast the mortal sword, and like
- 1:34:41Speaker 7: good men, bestride our downfallen birthdom. Each new morn, new
- 1:34:46Speaker 7: widows howl, new orphans cry, new sorrows strike heaven on
- 1:34:51Speaker 7: the face. Then it resounds as if it felt with
- 1:34:54Speaker 7: Scotland and yelled out like syllable of Dolar what I believe, all.
- 1:35:00Speaker 3: Wail, what no believe, and what I can redress, as
- 1:35:04Speaker 3: I shall find the time to friend, I will what
- 1:35:09Speaker 3: you have spoke. It may be so, perchance this tyrant,
- 1:35:13Speaker 3: whose sole name blisters our tongues, was once thought honest.
- 1:35:18Speaker 3: You have loved him. Well he has not touched you yet.
- 1:35:22Speaker 3: I am young, but something you may deserve of him
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: through me and wisdom to offer up a weak, poor,
- 1:35:30Speaker 3: innocent lamb to appease an angry god.
- 1:35:34Speaker 7: I am not treacherous, but.
- 1:35:37Speaker 3: Macbeth is a good and virtuous nature may recoil in
- 1:35:41Speaker 3: an imperial charge, But I shall crave your pardon. That
- 1:35:46Speaker 3: which you are. My thoughts cannot transpose. Angels are bright still,
- 1:35:51Speaker 3: though the brightest fell, though all things foul would wear
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: the brows of grace. Yet grace must still look.
- 1:35:58Speaker 7: So I have lost my hopes.
- 1:36:02Speaker 3: Perchance, even there where I did find my doubts. Why
- 1:36:07Speaker 3: in that rawness left you wife and child, those precious motives,
- 1:36:12Speaker 3: those strong knots of love without leave taking. I pray
- 1:36:16Speaker 3: you let not my jealousies be your dishonors, but mine
- 1:36:19Speaker 3: own safeties. You may be rightly just whatever I shall think.
- 1:36:25Speaker 7: Bleed, bleed, poor country, great tyranny, lathe all thy basest
- 1:36:32Speaker 7: sure for goodness, dare not check thee wear thou thy wrongs.
- 1:36:37Speaker 7: The title is afeared fare thee well, Lord, I would
- 1:36:41Speaker 7: not be the villain that thou think'st for the whole
- 1:36:44Speaker 7: space that is in the tyrant's grasp, and the rich
- 1:36:47Speaker 7: east to boot be not offended.
- 1:36:50Speaker 3: I speak not as in absolute fear of you. I
- 1:36:55Speaker 3: think our country sinks beneath the yoke, It weeps, it bleeds,
- 1:36:59Speaker 3: and each new day a gash is added to her wounds.
- 1:37:03Speaker 3: I think withal there would be hands uplifted in my right.
- 1:37:07Speaker 3: And here from gracious England have I offer of goodly thousands.
- 1:37:12Speaker 3: But for all this, when I shall tread upon the
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: Tyrant's head, or wear it on my sword, yet my
- 1:37:18Speaker 3: poor country shall have more vices than it had before,
- 1:37:22Speaker 3: more suffer, and more sundry ways than ever by him
- 1:37:25Speaker 3: that shall succeed, What should he be it is myself.
- 1:37:30Speaker 3: I mean in whom I know all the particular's advice
- 1:37:33Speaker 3: so grafted, that when they shall be opened, black Macbeth
- 1:37:36Speaker 3: will seem as pure as snow, and the poor state
- 1:37:40Speaker 3: esteem him as a lamb, being compared with my confinalss harms.
- 1:37:45Speaker 7: Not in the legions of horrid hell can come a
- 1:37:48Speaker 7: devil more damned in evils to top Macbeth.
- 1:37:53Speaker 3: I grant him bloody, luxurious, avaricious, false, deceitful, sudden, malicious,
- 1:38:01Speaker 3: smacking of every sin that has a name. But there's
- 1:38:04Speaker 3: no bottom, none in my voluptuousness. Your wives, your daughters,
- 1:38:09Speaker 3: your matrons, and your maids could not fill up the
- 1:38:12Speaker 3: cistern of my lust and my desire, all continent impediments.
- 1:38:17Speaker 3: Would o'erbear that did oppose my will? Better Macbeth than
- 1:38:22Speaker 3: such an one to reign boundless?
- 1:38:24Speaker 7: Intemperance in nature is a tyranny. It hath been the
- 1:38:27Speaker 7: untimely emptying of the happy throne and fall of many kings.
- 1:38:32Speaker 7: But fear not yet to take upon you what is yours.
- 1:38:35Speaker 7: You may convey your pleasures in a spacious plenty, and
- 1:38:38Speaker 7: yet seem cold the time you may so hoodwink. We
- 1:38:43Speaker 7: have willing dames. Enough, there cannot be that vulture in
- 1:38:47Speaker 7: you to devour so many as will to greatness dedicate themselves.
- 1:38:51Speaker 7: Finding it so inclined with.
- 1:38:54Speaker 3: This, there grows in my most ill composed affection such
- 1:38:59Speaker 3: as star countless avarice. That were I king, I should
- 1:39:03Speaker 3: cut off the nobles for their lands, desire, his jewels,
- 1:39:07Speaker 3: and this other's house, and my more having would be
- 1:39:11Speaker 3: as a sauce to make me hunger. More that I
- 1:39:14Speaker 3: should forge quarrels unjust against the good and loyal, destroying
- 1:39:19Speaker 3: them for wealth.
- 1:39:21Speaker 7: This avarice sticks deeper, grows with more pernicious root than
- 1:39:26Speaker 7: summer seeming lust. And it hath been the sword of
- 1:39:30Speaker 7: our slain kings. Yet do not fear Scotland hath poisons
- 1:39:36Speaker 7: to fill up your will of your mere own. All
- 1:39:39Speaker 7: these are portable, with other graces weighed, but.
- 1:39:43Speaker 3: I have none, the king becoming graces as justice, verity, temperance, stableness, bounty, perseverance, mercy, lowliness, devotion, patience, courage, fortitude.
- 1:39:58Speaker 3: I have no relish of them, but abound in the
- 1:40:01Speaker 3: division of each several crime, acting it many ways. Nay,
- 1:40:06Speaker 3: had I power, I should pour the sweet milk of
- 1:40:09Speaker 3: concord into hell uproar the universal peace confound all unity.
- 1:40:14Speaker 7: On earth, Oh, Scotland, Scotland.
- 1:40:18Speaker 3: If such a one be fit to govern, speak I
- 1:40:22Speaker 3: am as I have spoken.
- 1:40:24Speaker 7: Fit to govern. No, not to live, O nation miserable
- 1:40:29Speaker 7: with an untitled tyrant, bloody sceptid. When shalt thou see
- 1:40:33Speaker 7: thy wholesome days again? Since that the truest issue of
- 1:40:36Speaker 7: thy throne, by his own interdiction, stands accursed and does
- 1:40:41Speaker 7: blaspheme his breed. The royal Father was a most sainted king,
- 1:40:46Speaker 7: the queen that bore thee oftener upon her knees, that
- 1:40:49Speaker 7: on her feet died every day she lived fare thee well.
- 1:40:55Speaker 7: These evils, thou repeatst upon thyself, have banished me from Scotland.
- 1:41:00Speaker 7: O my breast, Thy hope ends here.
- 1:41:05Speaker 3: Macduff, this noble passion child of integrity, hath from my soul,
- 1:41:11Speaker 3: wiped the black scruples, reconciled my thoughts to thy good
- 1:41:15Speaker 3: truth and honor, devilish Macbeth. By many of these trains,
- 1:41:21Speaker 3: hath sought to win me into His power, and modest
- 1:41:25Speaker 3: wisdom plucks me from overcredulous haste. But God above deal
- 1:41:31Speaker 3: between Thee and me, For even now I put myself
- 1:41:34Speaker 3: to Thy direction, and unspeak mine own detraction. Here abjure
- 1:41:40Speaker 3: the taints and blames I laid upon myself, for strangers
- 1:41:44Speaker 3: to my nature. I am yet unknown to woman, never
- 1:41:50Speaker 3: was forsworn, scarcely have coveted what was mine own. At
- 1:41:55Speaker 3: no time broke my faith. Would not betray a devil
- 1:41:59Speaker 3: to his fellow, and delight no less in truth than life.
- 1:42:04Speaker 3: My first false speaking was this upon myself. What I
- 1:42:09Speaker 3: am truly is thine, and my poor countries to command
- 1:42:14Speaker 3: whither Indeed, before Thy, here approach old Seaward with ten
- 1:42:18Speaker 3: thousand warlike men already at a point were setting forth.
- 1:42:23Speaker 3: Now will together and the chance of goodness be like
- 1:42:26Speaker 3: our warranted quarrel? Why are you silent?
- 1:42:33Speaker 7: Such welcome man? Unwelcome things at once tis hard to reconcile.
- 1:42:40Speaker 3: Enter a doctor, Well more, anon comes the king forth.
- 1:42:45Speaker 32: I pray you, aye, sir.
- 1:42:47Speaker 23: There are a crew of wretched souls that stay his cure.
- 1:42:51Speaker 23: Their malady convinces the great essay of art. But at
- 1:42:54Speaker 23: his touch such sanctity hath Heaven given his hand, they
- 1:42:57Speaker 23: presently amend.
- 1:42:59Speaker 1: I thank you, exit doctor.
- 1:43:02Speaker 7: What's the disease.
- 1:43:04Speaker 3: He means tis called the evil. A most miraculous work
- 1:43:10Speaker 3: in this good king, which often, since my here remain
- 1:43:14Speaker 3: in England, I have seen him do. How he solicits
- 1:43:18Speaker 3: Heaven himself best knows, but strangely visited people all swon
- 1:43:25Speaker 3: and ulcerous, pitiful to the eye, the mere despair of
- 1:43:29Speaker 3: surgery he cures, hanging a golden stamp about their necks,
- 1:43:34Speaker 3: put on with holy prayers, and tis spoken to the
- 1:43:39Speaker 3: succeeding royalty. He leaves the healing benediction with this strange virtue.
- 1:43:45Speaker 3: He hath a heavenly gift of prophecy, and sundry blessings
- 1:43:50Speaker 3: hang about his throne that speak him full of grace.
- 1:43:54Speaker 3: Enter ross, see who comes here, my countrymen, But yet
- 1:44:01Speaker 3: I know him.
- 1:44:02Speaker 17: Not.
- 1:44:04Speaker 7: My e a gentle cousin welcome. Hither I know him now?
- 1:44:09Speaker 3: Good God betimes remove the means that makes us strangers.
- 1:44:15Speaker 7: Sir, Amen, stand Scotland when it did.
- 1:44:19Speaker 9: Alas poor country, almost afraid to know itself. It cannot
- 1:44:23Speaker 9: be called our mother but our grave. Where nothing but
- 1:44:26Speaker 9: who knows nothing is once seen to smile, Where sighs
- 1:44:29Speaker 9: and groans and shrieks that rend the air are made,
- 1:44:32Speaker 9: not marked, where violent sorrow seems a modern ecstasy. The
- 1:44:36Speaker 9: dead man's knell is there scarce asked for who? And
- 1:44:39Speaker 9: good men's lives expire before the flowers in their caps dying,
- 1:44:43Speaker 9: or e'er they sicken.
- 1:44:45Speaker 7: Oh, relation too nice and yet too true.
- 1:44:50Speaker 3: What's the newest grief?
- 1:44:52Speaker 9: That of an hour's age? Doth hiss the speaker? Each
- 1:44:55Speaker 9: minute seems a new one.
- 1:44:57Speaker 7: How does my wife why well? And all my children
- 1:45:03Speaker 7: well too? The tyrant has not battered at their peace?
- 1:45:08Speaker 9: No, they were well at peace when I did leave em.
- 1:45:12Speaker 7: But not a niggard of your speech, how ghost.
- 1:45:14Speaker 9: When I came hither to transport the tidings which I
- 1:45:17Speaker 9: have heavily borne, there ran a rumor of many worthy
- 1:45:20Speaker 9: fellows that were out, which was, to my belief witnessed
- 1:45:23Speaker 9: the rather for that I saw the Tyrant's power afoot.
- 1:45:26Speaker 9: Now is the time of help your eye in Scotland
- 1:45:29Speaker 9: would create soldiers, make our women fight to doff their
- 1:45:32Speaker 9: dire distresses, be.
- 1:45:34Speaker 3: It their comfort. We are coming thither, Gracious England, hath
- 1:45:39Speaker 3: lent us good seaward and ten thousand men and older,
- 1:45:43Speaker 3: and a better soldier none that Christendom gives out.
- 1:45:47Speaker 9: Would I could answer this comfort with the like, But
- 1:45:50Speaker 9: I have words that would be howled out in the
- 1:45:52Speaker 9: desert air, where hearings should not latch them.
- 1:45:55Speaker 7: What concerned they? The general cause? Or is it a
- 1:45:58Speaker 7: fee grief due to some single breast?
- 1:46:02Speaker 9: No mind, that's honest, But in it shares some woe,
- 1:46:05Speaker 9: though the main part pertains to you alone.
- 1:46:07Speaker 7: If it be mine, keep it not from me, quickly
- 1:46:10Speaker 7: let me have it.
- 1:46:12Speaker 9: Let not your ears despise my tongue forever, which shall
- 1:46:14Speaker 9: possess them with the heaviest sound that ever yet they heard.
- 1:46:18Speaker 7: Hum, I guess at it.
- 1:46:21Speaker 9: Your castle is surprised, your wife and babe savagely slaughtered.
- 1:46:25Speaker 9: To relate the manner were on the quarry of these murdered.
- 1:46:28Speaker 9: Dear to add the death.
- 1:46:29Speaker 3: Of you, merciful heaven, what man ne'er pull your hat
- 1:46:34Speaker 3: upon your brows, give sorrow words. The grief that does
- 1:46:38Speaker 3: not speak whispers the oar fraught heart, and bits it
- 1:46:41Speaker 3: break My children.
- 1:46:44Speaker 9: Too, wife, children, servants, all that could be found.
- 1:46:49Speaker 7: And I must be from fence. My wife killed two.
- 1:46:54Speaker 3: I have said, be comforted. Let us make medicines of
- 1:46:59Speaker 3: our great revenge to cure this deadly grief.
- 1:47:03Speaker 7: He has no children, all my pretty ones? Did you say, all?
- 1:47:09Speaker 7: Oh well, kinde, all what all my pretty chickens and
- 1:47:14Speaker 7: their damn it one fell swoop?
- 1:47:16Speaker 3: Dispute it like a man, I.
- 1:47:19Speaker 7: Shall do so, but I must also feel it as
- 1:47:22Speaker 7: a man. I cannot but remember such things were that
- 1:47:26Speaker 7: were most precious to me. Did Heaven look on and
- 1:47:30Speaker 7: would not take their part? Ah, sinful micduff, They were
- 1:47:34Speaker 7: all struck for thee, not that I am, not for
- 1:47:39Speaker 7: their own demerits, but for mine. Fell slapper on their souls.
- 1:47:44Speaker 7: Have address them.
- 1:47:45Speaker 3: Now, be this the wet stone of your sword. Let
- 1:47:50Speaker 3: grief convert to anger, blunt, not the heart enrage it.
- 1:47:55Speaker 7: Oh, I could play the woman with mine eyes and
- 1:47:58Speaker 7: bracken with my tongue. But gentle heavens cut short all
- 1:48:03Speaker 7: into mission, front to front. Bring Thal, this fiend of Scotland,
- 1:48:07Speaker 7: and myself within my sword's length. Set him if escape,
- 1:48:12Speaker 7: Heaven forgive him too.
- 1:48:15Speaker 3: This tune goes manly. Come we go to the king.
- 1:48:18Speaker 3: Our power is ready, Our lack is nothing, but our leave.
- 1:48:23Speaker 3: Macbeth is ripe for shaking, And the powers above put

- 1:58:09Speaker 5: out the written troubles of the brain, and with some
- 1:58:11Speaker 5: sweet oblivious antidote, cleanse the stuffed bosom of that perilous
- 1:58:16Speaker 5: stuff which weighs upon the heart.
- 1:58:19Speaker 23: Therein the patient must minister to himself.
- 1:58:22Speaker 5: Throw physic to the dog. I'll none of it. Come,

- 2:03:04Speaker 28: you see it coming?
- 2:03:06Speaker 24: I see a moving grove.
- 2:03:08Speaker 5: If thou speakest false upon the next tree, shalt thou
- 2:03:11Speaker 5: hang alive till famine cling thee. If thy speech be sooth,
- 2:03:17Speaker 5: I care not if thou dost for me as much
- 2:03:20Speaker 5: I pull in resolution, I begin to doubt the equivocation
- 2:03:24Speaker 5: of the fiend that lies like truth. Fear not till
- 2:03:28Speaker 5: burnham wood do come to Dunsinane. Now a wood comes
- 2:03:32Speaker 5: toward Dunsinane, arm arm and out. If this which he
- 2:03:37Speaker 5: avouches does appear, there is no flying, hence nor tearing.
- 2:03:41Speaker 5: Here I gin to be a weary of the sun,
- 2:03:44Speaker 5: and wish the estate of the world were now undone.
- 2:03:48Speaker 5: Ring the alarm bell, blow wind, come rack, at least
- 2:03:53Speaker 5: will die with harness on our back.
- 2:03:56Speaker 1: Excellent Act five. Seeing so Dunzanane before the castle, drum
- 2:04:03Speaker 1: and colors enter Malcolm, Seaward Macduff and their army with bows.
- 2:04:09Speaker 3: Now near enough your leafy screens throw down and show

- 2:04:19Speaker 3: cousin your right noble son, lead our first battle worthy
- 2:04:23Speaker 3: mac Duff, and we shall take upon what else remains
- 2:04:26Speaker 3: to do according to our order?
- 2:04:29Speaker 13: Very will do we but find the tyrants paw tonight,
- 2:04:33Speaker 13: let us be beaten. If we cannot fight.
- 2:04:36Speaker 7: Make all our trumpets speak, give them all breath, those
- 2:04:40Speaker 7: clamorous hobbinges of blood and death.
- 2:04:43Speaker 1: Excellent, Act five, Scene seven. Another part of the field alarms,
- 2:04:50Speaker 1: Enter Macbeth.
- 2:04:53Speaker 5: They have tied me to a stake. I cannot fly,
- 2:04:55Speaker 5: but they're like I must fight the course. What see
- 2:04:59Speaker 5: that was not born of woman? Such a one am
- 2:05:02Speaker 5: I to fear or none?
- 2:05:04Speaker 1: Enter Young Seaward.
- 2:05:05Speaker 14: What is thy name?
- 2:05:07Speaker 5: Thou'lt be afraid to hear it?
- 2:05:09Speaker 14: No, though thou call'st thyself a hotter name than any
- 2:05:12Speaker 14: is in hell.
- 2:05:14Speaker 5: My name's Macbeth.
- 2:05:16Speaker 14: The devil himself could not pronounce a title more hateful
- 2:05:19Speaker 14: to mine.
- 2:05:20Speaker 5: Ear no, nor more fearful.
- 2:05:23Speaker 14: Thou liest abhorred tyrant. With my sword, I'll prove the
- 2:05:26Speaker 14: lie thou speakest.
- 2:05:28Speaker 1: They fight, and Young Seaward is slain.
- 2:05:31Speaker 5: Thou wast born of woman? But swords I smile at weapons,
- 2:05:35Speaker 5: laughed to scorn brandish by man.
- 2:05:37Speaker 1: That's have a woman born exit alarms enter Macduff.
- 2:05:43Speaker 7: That way the noise is tyrant, Show thy face. If
- 2:05:48Speaker 7: thou beest slain, and with no stroke of mine, my
- 2:05:51Speaker 7: wife and children's ghosts will haunt me. Still I cannot
- 2:05:55Speaker 7: strike at wretched kerns whose arms are hired to bear
- 2:05:58Speaker 7: their staves, either thou Macbeth or else my sword with
- 2:06:03Speaker 7: an unbattered edge I sheathe again undeeded. There thou shouldst
- 2:06:08Speaker 7: be by this great clatter, one of greatest notes seems bruted.
- 2:06:14Speaker 7: Let me find him fortune and more. I beg not.
- 2:06:18Speaker 1: Exit alarms, Enter Malcolm and seaward.
- 2:06:22Speaker 13: This way, my lord. The castles gently rendered the tyrants.
- 2:06:27Speaker 13: People on both sides do fight. The noble Thanes do
- 2:06:30Speaker 13: bravely in the war. The day almost itself, Professor yawes,
- 2:06:35Speaker 13: and little ist to do.
- 2:06:36Speaker 3: We have met with foes that strike beside us.
- 2:06:40Speaker 1: Enter Sir the castle, excellent alarms, Act five, Scene eight,
- 2:06:48Speaker 1: another part of the field. Enter Macbeth.
- 2:06:52Speaker 5: Why should I play the Roman fool and die on
- 2:06:54Speaker 5: mine own sword? Whilst I see lives the gashes do
- 2:06:58Speaker 5: better upon them. Enter Macduff, turn hell hound, turn of
- 2:07:06Speaker 5: all men. Else. I have avoided thee, but get thee back.
- 2:07:11Speaker 5: My soul is too much charged with blood of thine
- 2:07:14Speaker 5: already I have no words.
- 2:07:17Speaker 7: My voice is in my sword. Thou, bloodier villain than terms,
- 2:07:22Speaker 7: can give.
- 2:07:22Speaker 1: THEE out they fight.
- 2:07:26Speaker 5: Thou losest labor as easy mayest thou the intrenched air
- 2:07:30Speaker 5: with thy keen sword, impress as make me bleed, Let
- 2:07:34Speaker 5: fall thy blade on vulnerable crests. I bear a charmed
- 2:07:37Speaker 5: life which must not yield to one of women born.
- 2:07:41Speaker 7: Despair thy charm. And if the angel whom thou still
- 2:07:45Speaker 7: hast served tell THEE mac duff was from his mother's
- 2:07:48Speaker 7: womb untimely ripped a.
- 2:07:51Speaker 5: Curse, be that tongue that tells me so, for hath
- 2:07:55Speaker 5: cowed my better part of man. And be these juggling
- 2:07:58Speaker 5: fiends no more believe that patter with us in a
- 2:08:01Speaker 5: double sense, that keep the word of promise to our
- 2:08:04Speaker 5: ear and break it to our hope. He'll not fight
- 2:08:07Speaker 5: with THEE.
- 2:08:08Speaker 7: Then yield thee coward, and live to be the shawl
- 2:08:11Speaker 7: and gaze of the time. We'll have THEE as our
- 2:08:15Speaker 7: rarer monsters are painted on a pole, and under it
- 2:08:19Speaker 7: here may you see the tyrant.
- 2:08:22Speaker 5: I will not yield to kiss the ground before young
- 2:08:25Speaker 5: Malcolm's feet, and to be baited with a rabble's curse.
- 2:08:28Speaker 5: Though burnham Wood be come to Dunsanane, and thou oppose,
- 2:08:32Speaker 5: being of no woman born, Yet I will try the
- 2:08:35Speaker 5: last before my body. I throw my warlike shield, lay
- 2:08:39Speaker 5: on Macduff, and damned be him that first cries.
- 2:08:43Speaker 1: Hold enough, excellent fighting alarms, retreat, flourish, enter with drum
- 2:08:51Speaker 1: and colors. Malcolm seaward ross the other thanes and soldiers.
- 2:08:57Speaker 3: I would the friends we miss were safer.
- 2:09:01Speaker 13: Some must go off, And yet by these I see
- 2:09:04Speaker 13: so great a day as this is cheaply bought.
- 2:09:08Speaker 3: Mac Duff is missing, and your noble son.
- 2:09:12Speaker 9: Your son, my lord, has paid a soldier's debt. He
- 2:09:15Speaker 9: only lived but till he was a man, the which
- 2:09:18Speaker 9: no sooner had his prowess confirmed in the unshrinking station
- 2:09:21Speaker 9: where he fought. But like a man he died. Then
- 2:09:25Speaker 9: he is dead, Aye, and brought off the field. Your
- 2:09:28Speaker 9: cause of sorrow must not be measured by his worth,
- 2:09:30Speaker 9: for than it hath no.
- 2:09:31Speaker 13: End had he his hurts before.
- 2:09:35Speaker 9: Aye on the front.
- 2:09:37Speaker 13: Why then, God's soldier be he had I as many
- 2:09:40Speaker 13: sons as I have heirs, I would not wish them
- 2:09:43Speaker 13: to affair a death, And so his knell is nulled.
- 2:09:47Speaker 3: He's worth more sorrow, and that I'll spend for him.
- 2:09:51Speaker 13: He is worth no more. They say, he parted well
- 2:09:55Speaker 13: and paid his score, and so God be with him.
- 2:09:59Speaker 13: Here comes comfort.
- 2:10:01Speaker 1: Re enter Macduff with Macbeth's head.
- 2:10:04Speaker 7: Hail King, for so thou art behold where stands the usurpers?

- 2:10:43Speaker 3: first that ever Scotland in such an honor, named What's
- 2:10:48Speaker 3: More to Do? Which would be planted newly with the
- 2:10:51Speaker 3: time as calling home our exiled friends abroad that fled
- 2:10:55Speaker 3: the snares of watchful tyranny, producing four the cruel ministers
- 2:11:01Speaker 3: of this dead butcher and his fiendlike queen who has
- 2:11:06Speaker 3: tis thought by self and violent hands took off her life.
- 2:11:11Speaker 3: This and what needful else that calls upon us, by

- 2:11:18Speaker 3: and place. So thanks to all at once said to
