The king is murdered. Banquo lays dead. Fife is a graveyard.
who will be next? I ask the three hags.
you
Lady Macbeth
Queen of Scotland
I fear that I can not take it any longer. I can not cope knowing in life, knowing that Duncan’s blood will forever lay on my hands.
My head is always filled by some picture of the bloody body of Duncan, alive and groping for my neck with his bloody hands. Other times, I see horrible, blood-filled scenes.
I can not rest, day or night, and I fear what will come to me in my sleep. All I can think of is death, I can not eat, and all the castle think I am insane, diseased or possessed by some wicked creature.
A doctor has been sent, but no doctor could help me, I will have blood-filled thoughts forever, even as I live in hell. I hope I can rid myself of the restless nights and painful days.
Perhaps I am insane. But how does one define that word? Does it mean that I am not in my right state of mind? Perhaps I have always been this way, but I have grown sick from these things. I am in fear that Duncan will rise from his grave to take me with him and he will not only be in my sleep, but while I am awake. I fear the night itself, and all things that happen in it. For Duncan and Banquo saw last the night before dying.
I can no-longer endure the visions my mind provides me with. I can not live knowing I was responsible for the king being killed.
I fear death, and living; I fear day and night, and I fear sleep and awake. Most, I fear Duncan’s death. I fear my husband, who no-longer tells me of his plans. He kills in desperation. I expect he would have me killed if I was to stop him being king. But he will not remain king. I have seen it. It is all in vain.
I can not live with so many fears. Duncan is dead and haunts me in my sleep. I can not rest anywhere, but I fear everything, even the prick of a needle, and so can do nothing.
Death will soon come, I can not stop it. I have gained much at a great cost, and it can not be undone.
The king is dead, because of Macbeth and his wife, as is Banquo and that of the Macduff house.
Lady Macbeth must be dead because of guilt, and the terror of everything, and everything she fears..
Macbeth will not be king.
King Duncan is dead. So must be Lady Macbeth. I can not take the fear.
Duncan is dead because of Lady Macbeth
Lady Macbeth is dead because of Duncan......
You'll have to read MacBeth by Shakespeare to really understand why she is like this.
