1.1.8 Quiz: Analyze How Shakespeare Develops LADY MACBETH. Glamis thou art, and Cawdor, and shalt

What thou art promised. Yet do I fear thy nature;
It is too full oth milk of human kindness
To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great,
Art not without ambition, but without
The illness should attend it. What thou wouldst highly,
That wouldst thou holily, wouldst not play false,
And yet wouldst wrongly win. Thou'ld'st have, great Glamis,
That which cries, Thus thou must do, if thou have it,
And that which rather thou dost fear to do,
Than wishest should be undone. Hie thee hither,
That I may pour my spirits in thine ear
And chastise with the valor of my tongue
All that impedes thee from the golden round,
Which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem
To have thee crowned withal

Explanation:

The lines selected above show how Lady Macbeth questions her husband's ability to be ruthless and assassinate King Duncan for his own benefit. Lady Macbeth acknowledges that her husband is soft-hearted, with little ambition, and that he will fear to assassinate the king for selfish reasons. However, Lady Macbeth stands as a counterpoint to her husband's passivity and proves merciless and cruel, being the main responsible for making him assassinate the king and become the new king.

The excerpt shown above belongs to the play "Macbeth" written by Shakespeare. This play shows how Macbeth, after usurping King Duncan's throne, is haunted by his own sins, until the day of his defeat.
