    interpretation I get from this particular scene. Is that of a paradox because it shows just how slimily Lady Macbeth truly is. She is showing extreme affection to Macbeth‚ meanwhile she is forcing Macbeth to kill Duncan at the same time. She is also filling his mind with thoughts of her always being by his side. When really she only wants to be queen. Whether it be by the darkness in the room‚ or by Lady Macbeth’s bossy tone‚ you can tell she has other motives in store for the future. Step 2: Setting

    The difference between Macbeth and lady Macbeth. Macbeth doesn’t really act like he cares for power at the beginning but after a while he seems like he becomes more acquainted with it. On the other hand his wife seems like from the start she is power hungry and is very happy about the prophecy and can’t wait for it to come true. As they are different it makes for an interesting thought as I’m reading I thought that this might lead to a problem later. This is because she might try to control him

    Lady Macbeth Mad Monologue What knowledge is there now that I can be innocent of? Innocent‚ the eyes of one who sees the corpse of a King‚ smoothly hacked at like a piece of meat by a well-practiced butcher‚ knowing that it was those eyes‚ my eyes‚ that watched the traitorous act come to pass.

I held the very dagger that slashed life to shreds‚ daggers
