Examining Lady Macbeth's Speech
Glamis, and thane of Cawdor: / The greatest is behind. / Thanks for your pains: / Do you not hope your children shall be kings, / When those that gave the thane of Cawdor to me / Promised no less to them? / Yet do I fear thy nature; / It is too full o’ the milk of human kindness / To catch the nearest way. Thou wouldst be great; / Art not without ambition, but without / The illness that should attend it: what thou wouldst highly, / That wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false, / And yet wouldst wrongly win. / Thou’dst have, great Glamis, / That which cries, ‘Thus thou must do,’ if thou have it; / And that which rather thou dost fear to do / Than wishest should be undone. / Hie thee hither, / That I may pour my spirits in thine ear; / And chastise with the valour of my tongue / All that impedes thee from the golden round, / Which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem / To have thee crown’d withal.”
