Like the other programs in the series A TASTE OF SHAKESPEARE , the purpose of this video is to help modern audiences, especially students, identify with the universal themes evident in Shakespeare's plotline.
In this great 'tragedy of blood', we are plunged into the life of a brave and loyal soldier whose loyalty is tested when it is prophesied that he will be king. Macbeth's greatest weakness may not be his ambition, but how easily he is swayed: first by the fortune-telling of witches, then the overpowering will of Lady Macbeth, and finally by his own tormented inner mind.
Inside this tense thriller, Shakespeare has also woven a heartbreaking story of a crumbling relationship; as tensions rise and lives are taken, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth find themselves driven apart.
There has never been a more heart-stopping thriller which is also a deep, accomplished character study. Here is a fresh and clear look at MACBETH, and the murky themes with which we are all still dealing.
'Where was this program when I was in high school?' The Toronto Globe and Mail
'A TASTE OF SHAKESPEARE is the answer to a teacher's prayer. It serves a pressing need by introducing students to the plays of William Shakespeare in a way that makes each play accessible and compelling viewing. [Each program] maintains the language and key scenes of the play which are tied together by an intelligently crafted connecting summary. The result in each case is a thoroughly informative and entertaining overview of the key themes and motifs of each of the drama...the students' appetites for the whole play will be well wetted. Equally important, they will be able to undertake their study of the text with a clear understanding of its over-arching architecture and a real feel for its drama and language. This is unquestionably the most satisfying, authoritative and pedagogically useful video introduction to the...plays of William Shakespeare I have seen. This series is a superb achievement - a wonderful marriage of modern scholarship and media production.' Dr. John MacDonald, Professor of English Education, University of Toronto
'Well suited for today's students, who have a hard time breaking through the language and action of Shakespeare to discover the modern-day meanings and overall themes that Shakespeare so wonderfully weaves into his dramas. Teachers of Shakespeare and/or historical drama would find these videos an excellent resource for introducing Shakespeare to their students. Highly Recommended.' Brad Eden, Ph.D., University of Nevada, Las Vegas for Educational Media Reviews Online
'An artistic combination of stage play and film...provides students with an accessible portrayal of complex characters.' School Library Journal

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:09.999
When shall we three meet again, in
thunder, lightning, or in rain?
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:14.999
When the hurlyburly\'s done.
When the battle\'s lost and won.
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:19.999
That will be ere the set of sun.
Where the place?
00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:24.999
Upon the heath. There to meet with Macbeth.
Fair is foul... And foul
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:29.999
is fair. Hover through the
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:34.999
fog and filthy air. And filthy air.
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:39.999
Macbeth and I return from battle.
The treason of the thane of
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:44.999
Cawdor against our King Duncan
could not go unanswered.
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:49.999
So foul and fair a day I have not seen.
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:54.999
The King\'s son Malcom had been taken
captive by traitorous rebels. But we
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:59.999
prevailed in the battle against them.
Macbeth was the bravest. And
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.999
led us to victory over the
traitorous thane of Cawdor!
00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:09.999
All hail Macbeth. Hail to
thee, thane of Glamis.
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:14.999
All hail Macbeth, hail to
thee, thane of Cawdor.
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:19.999
All hail Macbeth. That
shalt be king hereafter!
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:24.999
Good sir, why do you start and seem
to fear things that do sound so fair?
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:29.999
To me, you speak not. If
you can look into the
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.999
seeds of time and say which grain will
grow and which will not, speak then to me.
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:39.999
Lesser than Macbeth, and greater.
Not so happy,
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:44.999
yet much happier. Thou shalt
get kings, though thou be
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.999
none. So all hail Macbeth and Banquo!
I know I am thane of
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:54.999
Glamis. But how of Cawdor? The thane
of Cawdor lives. And to be king
00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:59.999
stands not within belief.
Speak, I charge you!
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.999
[sil.]
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:09.999
Were such things here?
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:14.999
Your children shall be kings.
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:19.999
You shall be king. Lennox brings
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:24.999
word from king Duncan that because of
Macbeth\'s bravery and success in battle,
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:29.999
the king has named him thane of Cawdor.
The thane of Cawdor lives!
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.999
Why do you dress me in borrowed robes?
Who was the thane lives yet.
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:39.999
But under heavy judgment bears that
life which he deserves to lose.
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:44.999
All hail Macbeth, the thane of Cawdor.
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:49.999
Two truths are told. The
greatest is behind.
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:54.999
If chance will have me king,
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:59.999
why, chance may crown me
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:04.999
without my stir.
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:09.999
Is execution done on Cawdor?
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.999
My liege, I have spoke
with one that saw him die.
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:19.999
Who did report that very frankly he confessed
his treasons. Begged your highness\' pardon,
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:24.999
and set for a deep repentance.
Nothing in his life became him
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:29.999
like believing it. There\'s
no art to find the mind\'s
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:34.999
construction in the face, huh? He
was a gentleman on whom I, I built
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.999
an absolute trust.
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:44.999
Ah, oh,
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:49.999
worthiest cousin. More is thy
due than more than all can pay!
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:54.999
Our duties are to your throne and state.
By doing everything safe toward your
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.999
love and honor. Welcome hither.
I have begun to plant thee,
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:04.999
and will labor to make
thee full of growing.
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:09.999
Noble Banquo, that has
no less deserved. Sons,
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:14.999
kinsmen, thanes, and you whose
places are the nearest.
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:19.999
Know we will establish our
estate upon our eldest
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.999
Malcom. Which honor
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:29.999
must not unaccompanies invest him
only, but signs of nobleness,
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:34.999
like stars, shall shine on all deservers-
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:39.999
That is a step on which I must fall down.
Or else, or leap, for in my
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:44.999
way it lies. They met me in the
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:49.999
day of success. And I have learned
they have more in them than mortal
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:54.999
knowledge. This have I thought
good to deliver thee, my
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:59.999
dearest partner of greatness.
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.999
Lay it to thy heart. And farewell.
All hail Macbeth,
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:09.999
hail to thee thane of Glamis.
All hail Macbeth, that
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:14.999
shall be king hereafter! Thou shalt be
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:19.999
what thou art promised. Yet do I fear
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.999
thy nature. It is too
full of the milk of human
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:29.999
kindness to catch the nearest way.
Thou woulds\'t
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:34.999
be great. But not without an ambition!
Without
00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:39.999
the illness should attend it.
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:44.999
What thou wouldsn\'t highly
that woulds\'t thou holily.
00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:49.999
Would no play\'st false and
yet wouldst not wrongly win.
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:54.999
Hie thee hither and let me pour my
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:59.999
spirits in thine ear. So please you, lady.
The king comes here tonight.
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:04.999
The raven himself is hoarse.
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:09.999
That croaks the fatal entrance
of Duncan under my battlements.
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:14.999
Come,
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:19.999
you spirits that
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:24.999
tend on mortal thoughts. Unsex
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:29.999
me here, and
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.999
fill me from the crown to the
toe top-full of direst cruelty.
00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:39.999
Make thick my blood. Stop up
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:44.999
the access and the passage to remorse
that no compunctious visitings of nature
00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:49.999
shake my fell purpose. Come
00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:54.999
to my woman\'s breasts and take my
00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:59.999
milk for gall, you murdering ministers.
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:04.999
Wherever in your sightless substances
you tend on nature\'s mischief.
00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:09.999
Come,
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:14.999
thick night,
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:19.999
let my keen eye see not
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:24.999
the wound it makes. Nor heaven peep through
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:29.999
the blanket of the dark
to cry, \'Hold, hold.\'
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:38.000
[sil.]
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:49.999
Great Glamis.
00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:54.999
Worthy Cawdor!
00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:59.999
Greater than both by the all-hail
hereafter. My dearest love,
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:04.999
Duncan comes here tonight.
And when goes hence?
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.999
Tomorrow, as he purposes.
Oh, never shall sun that
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:14.999
morrow see. Your face, my
thane, is as a book where men
00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:19.999
may read strange matters. To
beguile the time, look like
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.999
the time. Bear welcome
in your eye, your hand,
00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:29.999
your tongue. Look like the innocent flower,
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:34.999
but be the serpent under it.
He that\'s coming must
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:39.999
be provided for. And you shall put
this night\'s great business into
00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:44.999
my dispatch. Which shall to all
00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:49.999
our nights and days to come
bring solely sovereign
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:54.999
sway and masterdom.
00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:59.999
[sil.]
00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:04.999
If it were done when tis done,
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.999
then t\'were well it were done quickly.
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:14.999
If the assassination could trammel up
the consequence, and catch with his
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:19.999
surcease success. That but this blow
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:24.999
might be the be-all and the end-all
here, but here upon this bank
00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:29.999
and shoal of time, we
jump the life to come.
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:34.999
But in these cases, we still have
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.999
judgment here. First, as I am his kinsman,
00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:44.999
and and subject, strong both
against the deed, then as his
00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:49.999
host, who should, against his
murderer, shut the door, not bear the
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:54.999
knife myself. Besides, this Duncan
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:59.999
hath borne his faculties so
meek, hath been so clear
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.999
in his great office, that
his virtues will plead like
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:09.999
angels, trumpet tongued against the
deep damnation of his taking off.
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:14.999
I have no spur to prick the sides
of my intent, but only vaulting
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:19.999
ambition. He has almost supped!
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:24.999
Why have you left the chamber?
Hath he asked for me?
00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:29.999
Know you not he has?
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:34.999
We will proceed no further
in this business. He hath
00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:39.999
honored me of late, and I have bought
golden opinions from all sorts of people,
00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:44.999
which would be worn now in
their newest gloss, not
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:49.999
cast aside so soon.
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:54.999
Was the hope drunk wherein
you dressed yourself?
00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:59.999
Hath it slept since since?
And wakes it now to look
00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:04.999
so green and pale at what it did so freely?
00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:09.999
From this time such I account thy love.
Art thou
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:14.999
afeared to bed the same in thine own act and
valor as thou art in desire? Prithee, peace!
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:19.999
I dare do all that may become a man.
Who dares do more is none!
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:24.999
What beast was it, then? That made
you break this enterprise to me?
00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:29.999
When you durst do it, then you were a man! And to be more
than what you were, you would be so much more the man!
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:34.999
Nor time nor place did then adhere
and yet you would make both.
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.999
They have made themselves, and
that their fitness now doth
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:44.999
unmake you. I have given suck, and
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:49.999
know how tender tis to love
the babe that milks me.
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.999
I would, while it
00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:59.999
was smiling in my face, have
plucked my nipple from his
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:04.999
boneless gums, and dashed the
brains out had I so sworn
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:09.999
as you have done to this.
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:14.999
If we should fail? We fail.
00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:19.999
But screw your courage
to the sticking place.
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:24.999
And we\'ll not fail.
00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:29.999
When Duncan is asleep, whereto the rather
shall his long day\'s journey soundly
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:34.999
invite him, his two
chamberlains will I with
00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:39.999
wine and wassail so convince
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:44.999
that memory, the warder of the brain, shall
00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:49.999
be a fume. When in
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:54.999
swinish sleep, their drenched
natures lie as in a death.
00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:59.999
What cannot you and I perform on
the unguarded Duncan? What not
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:04.999
put upon his two spongy
officers, who shall bear the
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.999
guilt of our great quell?
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:14.999
Bring forth men-children only.
00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:19.999
For thy undaunted mettle
should compose nothing but
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.999
males. Will it not be received,
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:29.999
when we have marked with blood those sleepy
two of his own chamber and used their very
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:34.999
daggers that they have done it?
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:39.999
Who dares receive it other?
00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:44.999
My son, Fleance.
00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:49.999
Macbeth and I speak at the prophecies
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:54.999
of the three women. He says that I would
do well for myself to follow his lead
00:13:55.000 --> 00:13:59.999
in everything. That it will be
good for me when he is king.
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:04.999
I say, I\'ll keep
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:09.999
my options open.
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:14.999
[sil.]
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:19.999
Is this a dagger which I see before me?
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:24.999
The handle toward my hand?
00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:29.999
Come, let me clutch thee.
00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:34.999
I have thee not.
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.999
And yet I see thee still.
Art thou not, fatal vision,
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:44.999
sensible to feeling as to sight? Or
art thou but a dagger of the mind,
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:49.999
a false creation, proceeding from the
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.999
heat-oppressed brain? Thou
00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:59.999
marshallest me the way that I was going.
And such an instrument
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.999
I was to use. There\'s no such thing!
00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:09.999
It is the bloody business which
00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:14.999
informs thus to mine eyes.
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:19.999
Now, over the one halfword,
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:24.999
nature seems dead. And wicked dreams abuse
00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:29.999
the curtained sleep. And withered murder,
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:34.999
alarmed by this sentinel,
with his stealthy pace and
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:39.999
Tarquin\'s ravishing strides,
towards his design moves like
00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:44.999
a ghost.
00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:49.999
I go and it is done. The bell invites me.
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:54.999
Hear it not, Duncan. For it is a
00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:59.999
knell that summons thee
to heaven or to hell.
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:04.999
That which hath made them drunk,
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:09.999
made me bold. What
00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:14.999
quenched them hath given me fire.
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:19.999
Peace. It was the owl that
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:24.999
shrieked. The fatal bellman that
gives the sternest good-night.
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:29.999
He is about it. The doors are open.
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:34.999
And the surfeited grooms do
mock their charge with snores.
00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:39.999
Who\'s there? What, ho!
00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:44.999
Alack, I\'m afraid they have awaked and tis not
done! The attempt and not the deed confounds us!
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:49.999
Hark! I laid the daggers ready, he could not not miss
\'em! Had he not resembled my father as he slept,
00:16:50.000 --> 00:16:54.999
I had done it!
00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:59.999
My husband! I have done the deed.
Didst thou not hear a noise?
00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:04.999
Did not you speak? When? Now.
As I descended? Ay.
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:09.999
This is a sorry sight.
00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:14.999
A foolish though, to say a sorry sight. There\'s
one did laugh in his sleep. And one cried
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:19.999
murder. I stood and heard them. One
cried, \'God bless us.\' And \'amen\'
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:24.999
the other. Listening their
fear, I could not say \'amen\'
00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:29.999
when they did say \'God bless
us.\' Consider it not so deeply.
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:34.999
But wherefore could not I pronounce Amen?
I had most need of blessing, and \'Amen\'
00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:39.999
stuck in my throat! These deeds must
not be thought after these ways so.
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:44.999
It will make us mad. Methought I heard a
voice cry \'Sleep no more! Macbeth doth
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:49.999
murder sleep! The innocent sleep. Sleep
that knits up the raveled sleeve of care,
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:54.999
death of each day\'s life, balm
of hurt minds.\' Still it cried,
00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:59.999
\'Sleep no more\' to all the house! Glamis
hath murdered sleep, and therefore
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:04.999
Cawdor shall sleep no more! Macbeth shall
sleep no more! Who was it that thus cried?
00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:09.999
Go! Get some water and wash this
filthy witness from your hand!
00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:14.999
Why did you bring the daggers from
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:19.999
the place? They must lie there!
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:24.999
Go, carry them. Smear the faces
of the grooms with blood.
00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:29.999
I\'ll go no more. I\'m afraid
to think of what I have done!
00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:34.999
Give me the daggers.
00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:39.999
[sil.]
00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:44.999
The sleeping and the dead are but as
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:49.999
pictures. If he do bleed,
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:54.999
I\'ll gild the faces of the grooms withal.
For it must
00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:59.999
seem their guilt.
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:04.999
How is it with me, when every noise
00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:09.999
appalls me? What hands are these?
They pluck
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:14.999
out mine eyes. Will all great Neptune\'s
oceans, wash this blood clean
00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:19.999
from my hand? No, this hand will rather
00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:24.999
the multitudinous seas in incarnadine,
making the green one red!
00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:29.999
[sil.]
00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:34.999
My hands are of your color,
but I shame to wear a
00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:39.999
heart so white. Retire we
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:44.999
to our chamber. A little water clears
us of this deed. How easy is it, then.
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:49.999
Be not lost so poorly
00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:54.999
in your thoughts.
00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:59.999
To know my deed, t\'were
best not know myself.
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.999
Wake Duncan with thy knocking!
00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:09.999
I wish thou couldst.
00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:18.000
[sil.]
00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:24.999
Good morrow, noble sir.
00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:29.999
Good morrow, both. The king did command
me to call timely on him. I\'ve
00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:34.999
almost slipped the hour.
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:39.999
The night has been unruly. Where we lay, our
chimneys were blown down. And as they say,
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:44.999
lamenting heard in the air. Strange
screams of death and prophesying
00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:49.999
with accents terrible of dire
combustion and confused events
00:20:50.000 --> 00:20:54.999
new hatched to the woeful time.
Some say the earth was feverous
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:59.999
and did shake. Oh, oh! Horror, horror,
00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:04.999
horror! Tongue nor heart
cannot conceive nor name thee!
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:09.999
Confusion now hath made her masterpiece!
Approach the chamber and destroy
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:14.999
your sight! Ring the alarm bell!
Awake! Awake!
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:19.999
Murder and treason! Malcom and
Donalbain, Banquo, wake! Shake
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:24.999
off this downy sleep, death\'s
counterfeit, and look on death itself!
00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:29.999
Had I but
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:34.999
died an hour before this chance.
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:39.999
I had lived a blessed time.
00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:44.999
What is amiss? You are, and do not know it,
00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:49.999
the spring.
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:54.999
The head, the fountain, of
your blood, is stopped.
00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:59.999
The very source of it is stopped.
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:04.999
Your royal father has been murdered.
00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:09.999
I seems that the men who were
guarding the king have killed him.
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:14.999
They and their knives were
found, covered with blood!
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:19.999
Yet I do repent me of my
fury, that I did kill them!
00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:24.999
Wherefore did you so? The expedition
of my violent love outran the
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:29.999
pauser! Reason! Here lay Duncan,
his silver skin laced with his
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:34.999
golden blood. And his gashed
stabs look like a breach
00:22:35.000 --> 00:22:39.999
in nature for ruin\'s wasteful entrance! Who
could refrain that had a heart to love,
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:44.999
and in that heart, courage
to make his love known?
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:49.999
Help me hence. Ho!
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:54.999
With King Duncan\'s murder, his sons
fear they may be in danger as well.
00:22:55.000 --> 00:22:59.999
And they resolve to leave Scotland.
But their stealing away
00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:04.999
puts suspicion of their father\'s
murder on them. And the crown
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:09.999
lights on Macbeth.
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:14.999
[sil.]
00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:19.999
Thou has it now. King, Cawdor, Glamis. All,
00:23:20.000 --> 00:23:24.999
as the weird women promised. And I
00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:29.999
fear thou play\'dst most foully for it. Yet,
it was said it should not stand on thy
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:34.999
posterity, but that myself should be the
root and father of many kings. If there
00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:39.999
come truth from them, may they
not be my oracles as well, and
00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:44.999
set me up in hope? But hush, no more!
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:49.999
Here\'s our chief guest. If he had
been forgotten, it had been as a
00:23:50.000 --> 00:23:54.999
gap in our great feast.
And all thing unbecoming.
00:23:55.000 --> 00:23:59.999
Tonight we hold a solemn supper, sir.
And I\'ll request your
00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:04.999
presence. Let your highness command upon
00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:09.999
me to the which my duties are forever knit.
00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:14.999
[sil.]
00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:19.999
Ride you this afternoon? Ay, my good lord.
00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:24.999
Is it far you ride?
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:29.999
As far, my lord, as will fill up the time
twixt this and supper. Goes Fleance with you?
00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:34.999
Ay, my lord. Our time does call upon us.
I wish your horses swift and
00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:39.999
sure of foot. And so I do commend
you to their backs. Farewell.
00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:44.999
[sil.]
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:49.999
To be thus
00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:54.999
is nothing.
00:24:55.000 --> 00:24:59.999
But to be safely thus.
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:04.999
Our fears in Banquo stick deep.
00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:09.999
And in his royalty of nature
reigns that would be feared.
00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:14.999
There is none but he whose
being I do fear. He chid
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:19.999
the sisters when first they put the name of
king upon me. And bade them speak to him.
00:25:20.000 --> 00:25:24.999
Then, prophet-like, they
hailed him father to a line
00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:29.999
of kings. Upon my head, they placed
a fruitless crown, thence to be
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:34.999
wrenched with an unlineal hand.
No son of mine succeeding.
00:25:35.000 --> 00:25:39.999
If be so, for Banquo\'s issue have I filed
00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:44.999
my mind, for them the gracious
Duncan have I murdered.
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:49.999
To make them kings! The seed of
Banquo kings! Rather than so,
00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:54.999
come fate into the list.
00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:59.999
Both of you know Banquo was your enemy.
00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:04.999
We shall, my lord, perform
what you command us.
00:26:05.000 --> 00:26:09.999
Within this hour, I will advise you where to
plant yourselves, for it must be done tonight.
00:26:10.000 --> 00:26:14.999
And with him, to leave no rubs
nor botches in the works.
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:19.999
Fleance his son, that keeps him company,
whose absence is no less material to me that
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:24.999
is his father\'s, must embrace
the fate of that dark hour.
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:29.999
We are resolved, my lord.
00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:34.999
[sil.]
00:26:35.000 --> 00:26:39.999
It is concluded. Banquo,
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:44.999
thy soul\'s flight, if it find heaven,
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:49.999
must find it out tonight.
00:26:50.000 --> 00:26:54.999
How now, my lord, why do you keep alone?
00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:59.999
Using those thoughts which should indeed
have died with them they think on?
00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:04.999
Things without all remedy
should be without regard.
00:27:05.000 --> 00:27:09.999
What\'s done is done. We have
scorched the snake, not
00:27:10.000 --> 00:27:14.999
killed it. Gentle, my lord.
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:19.999
Sleek over these rugged looks. Thou know\'st
that Banquo and his Fleance lives.
00:27:20.000 --> 00:27:24.999
What\'s to be done?
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:29.999
Be innocent of the knowledge, dearest
chuck, till thou applaud the deed.
00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:38.000
[sil.]
00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:44.999
Oh, treachery! Fly, good Fleance, fly!
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:49.999
Thou mayst
00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:54.999
revenge!
00:27:55.000 --> 00:28:03.000
[sil.]
00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:19.999
There\'s blood on thy face.
Tis Banquo\'s then.
00:28:20.000 --> 00:28:24.999
Tis better thee without than he within.
Is he dispatched? My lord,
00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:29.999
his throat is cut. That I did for him.
Thou art the best of the
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:34.999
cut-throats. Yet he\'s good
that did the like for Fleance.
00:28:35.000 --> 00:28:39.999
Most royal sir, Fleance is
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:44.999
escaped. Then comes my
00:28:45.000 --> 00:28:49.999
fit again. I had else been perfect.
Now I am cribbed,
00:28:50.000 --> 00:28:54.999
confined, but Banquo\'s safe?
00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:59.999
Ay, my lord, safe in a ditch he abides.
With 20 trenched gashes on his head.
00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:04.999
My royal lord, you do not give the cheer.
00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:09.999
To feed were best at home, from
thence the sauce to meat is ceremony.
00:29:10.000 --> 00:29:14.999
Meeting were bare without it.
00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:19.999
[sil.]
00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:24.999
Which of you have done this?
Thou canst not see I did it!
00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:29.999
Never shake thy gory locks at me!
His highness is not well.
00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:34.999
Sit, worthy friends. My lord
is often thus. And hath
00:29:35.000 --> 00:29:39.999
been from this youth. Pray you, keep seat.
The fit is momentary. Upon a thought,
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:44.999
he will again be well. Are you a man?
00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:49.999
Ay, and a bold one, that dare look on that which
might appall the devil! Oh, proper stuff.
00:29:50.000 --> 00:29:54.999
This is the very painting of your fear. This
is the air-drawn dagger which, you said,
00:29:55.000 --> 00:29:59.999
led you to Duncan. Behold!
How say you? Why,
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:04.999
what care I if thou canst not? Speak too!
00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:09.999
What, quite unmanned in folly?
If I stand here,
00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:14.999
I saw him! Fie, for shame!
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:19.999
Blood hath been shed ere
00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:24.999
now. In the olden time, ay, and
since too, murders have been
00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:29.999
performed too terrible for the ear.
The times have been that, when the
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:34.999
brains were out, the man would die, and there an
end. But now they rise again! And push us from our
00:30:35.000 --> 00:30:39.999
stools! This is more strange
than such a murder is.
00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:44.999
My worthy lord, your noble
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:49.999
friends do lack you.
00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:54.999
Do not muse at me, my most worthy friends.
00:30:55.000 --> 00:30:59.999
Come, love and health to all.
I drink to the
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:04.999
general joy of the whole table!
00:31:05.000 --> 00:31:09.999
Avaunt! And quit my sight!
00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:14.999
Let the earth hide thee! Thy bones
are marrowless! Thy blood is
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:19.999
cold. There is no speculation in those
eyes which thou dost glare with! What man
00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:24.999
dare, I dare. Take any shape than that,
and my firm nerves shall never tremble.
00:31:25.000 --> 00:31:29.999
Or be alive again! And
dare me with thy swords!
00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:34.999
Hence, horrible shadow!
00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:39.999
You have displaced the mirth, broke the
good meeting, with most admired disorder.
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:44.999
You make me strange. Even to the disposition
that I owe, when now I think you can
00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:49.999
behold such sights! What sights, my lord?
00:31:50.000 --> 00:31:54.999
I pray you, speak not! He grows worse
and worse. Question enrages him.
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:59.999
At once, good night, but go at once.
Good night.
00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:04.999
And better health attend his majesty.
Kind good
00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:09.999
night to all.
00:32:10.000 --> 00:32:14.999
It will have blood,
00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:19.999
they say, blood will have blood. How say\'st
00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:24.999
thou that Macduff denies his
person at our great bidding?
00:32:25.000 --> 00:32:29.999
Did you send to him, sir?
I hear it by the way.
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:34.999
I will tomorrow to the weird sisters.
More shall they speak,
00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:39.999
for now I am bent to know by
the worst means, the worst.
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:44.999
For mine own good, all
causes shall give way.
00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:49.999
I am in blood stepped in so far
00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:54.999
that should I wait no
more, returning were as
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:59.999
tedious as go over.
00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:04.999
You lack the season of all natures, sleep.
00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:09.999
[sil.]
00:33:10.000 --> 00:33:14.999
How now,
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:19.999
you secret, black, and midnight hags?
00:33:20.000 --> 00:33:24.999
I conjure you. By that which you profess,
00:33:25.000 --> 00:33:29.999
how e\'re you come to know it?
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:34.999
Answer me what I ask you. Speak.
00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:39.999
Demand. We\'ll answer. Tell me thou
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:44.999
unknown power-He knows thy thought.
Hear his speech,
00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:49.999
but say thou not.
00:33:50.000 --> 00:33:54.999
Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth!
Beware Macduff! Beware
00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:59.999
the thane of Fife.
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:04.999
Be bloody, bold, and resolute. Laugh
to scorn the power of man, for none
00:34:05.000 --> 00:34:09.999
of woman born shall harm Macbeth.
00:34:10.000 --> 00:34:14.999
Macbeth
00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:19.999
shall never vanquished be until
Great Birnam wood to high
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:24.999
Dunsinane hill shall come against him.
00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:29.999
That will never be. Who can impress
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:34.999
the forest? Bid the tree
unfix his earth-bound root?
00:34:35.000 --> 00:34:39.999
Here tell me! Shall Banquo\'s issue
00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:44.999
ever reign in this kingdom?
Seek to know no more.
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:49.999
I will be satisfied! Deny me
this, and an eternal curse
00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:54.999
fall on you! Let me know! Show
his eyes, and grieve his heart.
00:34:55.000 --> 00:34:59.999
Come like shadows, so depart. This
crown doth sear mine eyeballs!
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:04.999
Filthy hags! Why do you show me this?
Macduff is
00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:09.999
fled to England. Fled to England.
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:14.999
Murdered King Duncan\'s son, Malcolm, is with
England\'s King Edward, there has Macduff gone
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:19.999
to beg the king to raise
war against Macbeth.
00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:24.999
The castle of Macduff I will surprise! Seize upon
Fife. Give to the edge of the sword his wife,
00:35:25.000 --> 00:35:29.999
his babes, and all unfortunate
souls that trace him in his line!
00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:34.999
No boasting like a fool, this deed
I\'ll do before this purpose cool.
00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:39.999
But no more sights!
00:35:40.000 --> 00:35:44.999
[sil.]
00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:49.999
10,000 English soldiers are now ready to
do battle with Macbeth and his forces,
00:35:50.000 --> 00:35:54.999
to save Scotland from Macbeth.
00:35:55.000 --> 00:35:59.999
But first, Macduff is told of what has
happened at his home in his absence.
00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:04.999
Your castle is surprised.
00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:09.999
Your wife and babes savagely slaughtered.
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:14.999
Merciful heaven! Give sorrow words.
00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:19.999
The grief that does not
00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:24.999
speak whispers the o\'er-fraught
heart and bids it break.
00:36:25.000 --> 00:36:29.999
My children too? Wife, children, servants,
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:34.999
all that could be found. And I must be
00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:39.999
from thence.
00:36:40.000 --> 00:36:44.999
My wife killed too?
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:49.999
Let\'s make us medicines of our great
revenge to cure this deadly grief.
00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:54.999
He has no children.
00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:59.999
Did heaven look on, and would
not take their part? Dispute it
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:04.999
like a man.
00:37:05.000 --> 00:37:09.999
I shall do so. But I must also feel
00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:14.999
it as a man.
00:37:15.000 --> 00:37:23.000
[sil.]
00:37:55.000 --> 00:37:59.999
Out, damned
00:38:00.000 --> 00:38:04.999
spot. Out I say.
00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:09.999
One. Two.
00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:14.999
Well then,
00:38:15.000 --> 00:38:19.999
tis time to do it. Fie, my lord, fie.
00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:24.999
A soldier and afeared?
00:38:25.000 --> 00:38:29.999
What need we fear who knows it?
00:38:30.000 --> 00:38:34.999
When none can call our power to account?
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:39.999
Yet,
00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:44.999
who would have thought the old
man to have so much blood
00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:49.999
in him? The thane of
00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:54.999
Fife had a wife,
00:38:55.000 --> 00:38:59.999
where is she now?
00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:04.999
What, will these hands
00:39:05.000 --> 00:39:09.999
ne\'er be clean? Here\'s
the smell of the blood,
00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:14.999
still. All
00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:19.999
the perfumes of Arabia could
not sweeten this little hand.
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:24.999
Oh, oh,
00:39:25.000 --> 00:39:29.999
oh oh.
00:39:30.000 --> 00:39:34.999
Wash your hands,
00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:39.999
look not so pale.
00:39:40.000 --> 00:39:44.999
I tell you get again, Banquo\'s buried.
00:39:45.000 --> 00:39:49.999
He cannot come out on his grave. To bed,
00:39:50.000 --> 00:39:54.999
to bed. There\'s knocking at the
00:39:55.000 --> 00:39:59.999
gate. Come, come,
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:04.999
come, come,
00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:09.999
give me your hand.
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:14.999
What\'s done cannot be undone.
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:19.999
Macbeth still commands an army.
But their hearts are not
00:40:20.000 --> 00:40:24.999
in the battle. And several defect to the
English side. Bring me no reports! Let them
00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:29.999
fly, all! Till Birham
wood remove to Dunsinane,
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:34.999
I cannot taint with fear.
What\'s the boy Malcolm?
00:40:35.000 --> 00:40:39.999
Was he not born of woman? Then Macbeth
is told there are 10,000 English
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:44.999
soldiers massed against him.
This push will cheer me ever, or
00:40:45.000 --> 00:40:49.999
disseat me now. I have lived
long enough. My way of
00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:54.999
life has fallen into the sear.
00:40:55.000 --> 00:40:59.999
The yellow leaf, and that which
should accompany old age is love,
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:04.999
honor, obedience, troops of friends.
00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:09.999
I must not look to have. I\'ll fight till
00:41:10.000 --> 00:41:14.999
from my bones my flesh be hacked!
Send out more
00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:19.999
horses! Skirr the country \'round!
How does your patient, doctor?
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:24.999
Not so sick, my lord, as she is troubled
with thick coming fancies that her
00:41:25.000 --> 00:41:29.999
from her rest. Canst thou not
minister to mind diseased?
00:41:30.000 --> 00:41:34.999
Pluck out the memory of a rooted sorrow,
raze out the written troubles of the brain,
00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:39.999
and with some sweet oblivious antidote
00:41:40.000 --> 00:41:44.999
cleanse the stuffed bosom of
that perilous stuff which
00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:49.999
weighs upon the heart? Therein the
patient must minister to himself.
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:54.999
Doctor, the thanes fly from me.
00:41:55.000 --> 00:41:59.999
If thou couldst, cast the water of my
land, find her disease, and purge it
00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:04.999
to a sound and pristine health!
I\'ll not be afraid of
00:42:05.000 --> 00:42:09.999
death and bane till Birnam
forest come to Dunsinane.
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:14.999
And at that very moment, Malcom\'s forces
are cutting down the trees of Biram wood,
00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:19.999
to camouflage themselves as
they approach Dunsinane castle.
00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:24.999
[sil.]
00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:29.999
What is that noise.
00:42:30.000 --> 00:42:34.999
I have almost forgot the taste of
00:42:35.000 --> 00:42:39.999
fears. The time has been
00:42:40.000 --> 00:42:44.999
my senses wold have cooled
to hear a night shriek.
00:42:45.000 --> 00:42:49.999
I have
00:42:50.000 --> 00:42:54.999
supped full with horrors.
The queen, my lord,
00:42:55.000 --> 00:42:59.999
is dead.
00:43:00.000 --> 00:43:04.999
She should have died hereafter.
00:43:05.000 --> 00:43:09.999
There would have been time for such a word.
00:43:10.000 --> 00:43:14.999
Tomorrow.
00:43:15.000 --> 00:43:19.999
And tomorrow.
00:43:20.000 --> 00:43:24.999
And tomorrow.
00:43:25.000 --> 00:43:29.999
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day.
00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:34.999
To the last syllable of recorded time.
00:43:35.000 --> 00:43:39.999
And all our yesterdays are lighted
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:44.999
fools the way to dusty death.
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:49.999
Out, out brief candle.
00:43:50.000 --> 00:43:54.999
For life\'s but a walking shadow.
00:43:55.000 --> 00:43:59.999
A poor player that struts and
frets his hour upon the stage,
00:44:00.000 --> 00:44:04.999
and then is heard no more.
00:44:05.000 --> 00:44:09.999
And is a tale told by an idiot,
00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:14.999
full of sound an fury,
00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:19.999
signifying nothing.
00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:24.999
Then Macbeth is told it appears
Biram wood is moving towards
00:44:25.000 --> 00:44:29.999
the castle. I pull in resolution,
00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:34.999
and begin to doubt the equivocation
00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:39.999
of the fiend that lies like truth.
00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:44.999
Arm! Arm and out!
00:44:45.000 --> 00:44:49.999
I gin to be a aweary of the sun,
00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:54.999
and wish the estate of the
world were now undone.
00:44:55.000 --> 00:44:59.999
Ring the alarm bell!
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:04.999
Blow wind! Come, wrack! At least
00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:09.999
we\'ll die with harness on our back!
00:45:10.000 --> 00:45:14.999
Tyrant! Show thy face!
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:19.999
If thou be\'st slain and with no stroke of mine, my
wife and children\'s ghosts will haunt me still!
00:45:20.000 --> 00:45:24.999
The castle\'s gently rendered, the
day almost professes itself yours,
00:45:25.000 --> 00:45:29.999
and little is to do.
00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:34.999
[sil.]
00:45:35.000 --> 00:45:39.999
Of all men else, I have avoided thee.
00:45:40.000 --> 00:45:44.999
But get thee back! My
soul is too much charged
00:45:45.000 --> 00:45:49.999
with blood of thine already.
I have no words. My voice is
00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:54.999
in my sword!
00:45:55.000 --> 00:45:59.999
I bear a charmed life!
00:46:00.000 --> 00:46:04.999
And must not yield to one woman born!
00:46:05.000 --> 00:46:09.999
Despair thy charm, and let the angel
whom thou still hast served tell thee.
00:46:10.000 --> 00:46:14.999
Macduff was from his mother\'s
womb untimely ripped!
00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:19.999
Accursed be the tongue that tells me so!
00:46:20.000 --> 00:46:24.999
And be these juggling fiends
00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:29.999
no more believed that
keep the word of promise
00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:34.999
to our ear, and break it to our hope!
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:39.999
I\'ll not fight with thee.
00:46:40.000 --> 00:46:44.999
Then yield thee coward!
And live to be the gaze
00:46:45.000 --> 00:46:49.999
and show of the time. We\'ll
have thee painted on a pole,
00:46:50.000 --> 00:46:54.999
here may you see the tyrant!
I will not yield
00:46:55.000 --> 00:46:59.999
to kiss the ground before
young Malcolm\'s feet.
00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:04.999
And to be baited with the rabble\'s curse.
Though Birnam wood be come to
00:47:05.000 --> 00:47:09.999
Dunsinane. And thou opposed,
being of no woman born,
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:14.999
yet I\'ll try the last.
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:19.999
Lay on, Macduff, and damned be him that
00:47:20.000 --> 00:47:24.999
first cries \'Hold, enough!\'
00:47:25.000 --> 00:47:33.000
[sil.]
00:47:40.000 --> 00:47:44.999
Hail, king.
00:47:45.000 --> 00:47:49.999
For so thou art.
00:47:50.000 --> 00:47:54.999
The time is free!
00:47:55.000 --> 00:47:59.999
I see thee compassed with thy kingdom\'s pearl.
That speak my salutation with their minds.
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:04.999
With voices I desire aloud with mine. Hail,
00:48:05.000 --> 00:48:09.999
King of Scotland!
00:48:10.000 --> 00:48:14.999
Hail, King of Scotland! We shall
not spend a large expense
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:19.999
of time before we recon with
your several loves, and make us
00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:24.999
even with you. My thanes and kingsmen,
00:48:25.000 --> 00:48:29.999
henceforth be earls, the first that
Scotland ever in such an honor named.
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:34.999
What\'s more to do that
calls upon us, by the
00:48:35.000 --> 00:48:39.999
grace of grace. We shall perform in
00:48:40.000 --> 00:48:44.999
measure, time and place.
00:48:45.000 --> 00:48:49.999
So thanks to all at once, and to each one,
00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:54.999
whom we invite to see us crowned at Scone.
00:48:55.000 --> 00:49:00.000
