An account of a regicide and its aftermath.
The worthy Thane of Ross.
LENNOX.
What a haste looks through his eyes! So should he look
That seems to speak things strange.
[Enter Ross.]
ROSS.
God save the King!
DUNCAN.
Whence cam'st thou, worthy thane?
ROSS.
From Fife, great king;
Where the Norweyan banners flout the sky

Curbing his lavish spirit: and, to conclude,
The victory fell on us.
DUNCAN.
Great happiness!
ROSS.

Till he disbursed, at
A must-read classic. At last, Macbeth died, but, he wasn't coward and died bravely.
The drama is full of tragic scenes, it attracts you on the entry of the witches itself.
