Act 1 Scene 4
D= Duncan M= Malcolm MC= Macbeth B= Banquo
D: Is the execution carried out or not? Did the ones in charge
of the execution come back yet?
M: My lord, they aren’t here yet but I have talked to a
witness of his tragic death. No one has benefitted from his
death as he had already thrown away all of his belongings,
even the trifle ones.
D: I can’t read in a man’s mind just by looking at his face but I
know he was a man of honour and I trusted him more than
anyone else. I wish he deserved less, so that my sin would be
in proportion. I have to say, more is due than all can pay.
MC: The service and the loyalty I owe you is its own reward.
D: Welcome dear Macbeth. Noble Banquo had no less
deserved as much. I have begun to plant you, and I will make
sure you grow to success.
B: If I grow there, the harvest is your property
D: Sons, Kinsmen, Thane and others whose place are most
closely related, know that Malcolm, our eldest, will now
be named Prince of Cumberland. Must make sign of
nobleness like stars shall shine.
MC: Everything is labour until it is done for you. I will be the
harbinger I hear my wife. I must leave now.
D: Go on, my worthy Cawdor
MC: Malcolm, Prince of Cumberland that is an amazing step.
Do not let fight see my awful desires, don’t look at what
my hand is doing. Let the eyes get scared when it’s
done.
D: Worthy Banquo, you are so brave, who cares to have
Malcolm as the Prince of Cumberland. It is a peerless
Kinsman
Act 1 Scene 5
LM=Lady Macbeth A= Attendant MC=Macbeth
LM: [Reads] They met me during the day, I learned that they
had mortal knowledge. When I ask questions about it,
they ignore it and change subject. They all greet me with
the name of “Thane of Cawdor”. The murderers must
not be with ambition.
A: The king will come here tonight
LM: You’re mad. Macbeth has not yet informed us to do the
preparations.
A: It’s true, our Thane is coming. One of my fellows travelled
faster than him and made me up his message.
LM: Give him attention, he brings great news. Come you
spirit, that tendon mortal thoughts, take away
everything that makes me a woman. Come tonight,
dense and dark, so that no one sees my knife going
through him. I can feel the future now.
MC: My love, Duncan will come tonight
LM: Your face, my Thane, is as a book where men may read
strange matters. Put on the appropriate appearance in
your eyes. Your hand and your tongue, look like an
innocent flower, but the serpent under it. He’s coming
must be prepared. It should be an absolute regal
command.
MC: We will speak further-
LM: Only look up cheerfully. Fear always shows itself in a
change of facial expression. Leave all the rest to me.

Act 1 Scene 6
D= Duncan B= Banquo LM= Lady Macbeth
D: This castle is in a pleasant place. The air is fresh and sweet
and it appeals to my gentle senses.
B: This summer, the house martin proves how intuiting the
breezes are. There’s not a place in the castle walls
where these birds haven’t built a nest. I’ve noticed that
they always like to settle where the air is the nicest
D: Look, our honoured hostess, I still accept love even if it’s
sometimes difficult. I’m teaching you to thank me for
the trouble I’m causing you by leaving here.
LM: All of our services are nothing compared to all the hand
you have brought to our family. We welcome you as our
guests and we are thankful to all the honour you gave
us.
D: Where’s the Thane of Cawdor? We chased him at the
heels to be responsible, but he drives well. We had to
help him. Fair and noble hostess. We are your guests
tonight.
Act 1 Scene 7
MC= Macbeth LM= Lady Macbeth
MC: These men are murderers, letting them in was an
obligation but these men don’t know we’ve figured out
their real reason of visiting us.
LM: What’s new? He has almost finished the dinner. Why did
you leave the dinner room?
MC: Has he asked for me?
LM: You didn’t know he has?
