King Duncan's Letter To Lady Macbeth
King Duncan was a king and friendly king, he was friendly to everyone. Here are a couple of reasons why I thank Duncan was a friendly person and the kindness he had in him. When he goes to Macbeth castle, he says such nice things to Lady Macbeth and he is a very kind man saying lots of things that make her happy even though she still wants to kill him. When he is there he talks so highly of Macbeth and his castle. It’s so ironic because Lady Macbeth and Macbeth want to kill him even though he is being so kind. When was done with his meal he said how nice the meal was. I thank king Duncan was a very good king and he was a very good leader to the people that he was king over. The kindness he had towards people was so gentle and nice he was

    My son Malcolm informed me today that the former Thane of Cawdor has died. In my opinion, he got what he deserved after he arrogantly betrayed us. But before dying he asked for my forgiveness and he was deeply sorry. I shall never forgive that traitor and may he burn in hell for his disloyalty. He is a disgrace to his clan and all of Scotland. After a while, my subjects, including Macbeth came. I was so happy with Macbeth, what he did can never be repaid. I praised him in front of my subjects, so they can view him as role model. Banquo's actions were also good but they cannot be compared to Macbeth's actions . Before they left, I made an important announcement. I've declared my son Malcolm to be heir to the throne.

    “You lack the season of all natures, sleep” (III.iv.73), spoken by Lady Macbeth, shows how sleep can mess with a person’s judgment. Ever since Macbeth murdered Duncan, he has been so guilty that he couldn’t sleep. Since he is so sleep deprived, his judgment is impaired. He is paranoid and is killing people left and right. He is so fearful that everyone is trying to overthrow him that he resorts to killing his close friend, Banquo. “There’s blood upon thy face/ ‘Tis Banquo’s then” (III.iv.13-15) is when Macbeth confirms the murder of Banquo from the ‘hit man’ he hired. He was paranoid that because of the witches’ prophecy about Banquo’s descendants becoming king, that Banquo would…

    Even when your roles were inverted and you were his host, all his generous remarks, even then, did not stop. You must recall the moment where you brought King Duncan into your home, and how he exclaimed nothing but favorable and benevolent remarks about your home.

He has consistently praised your combat skills on the battlefield, awarding you with superior titles.
