00:04:23This is the sergeant that fought against my captivity
00:04:25Say to the king the knowledge of the broils
00:04:27Thou didst to leave it
00:04:29Doubtful it stood
00:04:31The merciless Macdonald
00:04:33from the western isles of Cairns and Galaglasses
00:04:35is supplied and fortune on his
00:04:37damned quarrel smiling short
00:04:39like a rebel's whore
00:04:41But I'll do weak
00:04:43for brave Macbeth
00:04:45while he deserves that name
00:04:47disdaining fortune with his brandished steel
00:04:49which smoked with bloody execution
00:04:51like Valor's minion
00:04:53carved out his passage till he faced the slave
00:04:55which
00:04:57ne'er shook hands with him
00:04:59nor bid farewell till he unseamed him
00:05:01from the knave to the chops and fixed his head
00:05:03upon our battlements
00:05:05Oh valiant cousin, worthy gentleman
00:05:07Mark, king of Scotland, Mark
00:05:09No sooner justice had with valor armed
00:05:11compelled these Scip and Cairns to trust their heels
00:05:13but the Norweyan lords,
00:05:15of being vantaged with furbished arms
00:05:17and new supplies of men, began a fresh assault
00:05:19Dismayed not this
00:05:21our captains, Macbeth
00:05:23and Banquo?
00:05:25Yes, as sparrows' eagles
00:05:27or the hare, the lion
00:05:29if I say sooth, I must report
00:05:31they were as cannons overcharged
00:05:33with double cracks
00:05:35so they doubly redoubled
00:05:37their strokes upon the foe
00:05:39except they meant to bathe in a reeking wounds
00:05:41or memorize another Golgotha I cannot tell
00:05:43but I am faint
00:05:45my gashes cry for help
00:05:47Well thy words become thee as thy wounds
00:05:49they smack of honor both
00:05:55No, get him, sergeant
00:05:59Who comes here?
00:06:01The worthy thane of Ross
00:06:03Good haste looks through his eyes
00:06:05Whence cam'st thou, worthy thane?
00:06:07From Fife, great king
00:06:09where the Norweyan banners
00:06:11flout the sky and fan our people cold
00:06:13Norway himself
00:06:15with terrible numbers
00:06:17assisted by that most disloyal
00:06:19traitor, the thane of Cawdor
00:06:21began a dismal conflict
00:06:23till
00:06:25that Balona's bridegroom
00:06:27brave Macbeth
00:06:29confronted him with self-comparisons
00:06:31point against point
00:06:33arm against arm
00:06:35curbing his lavish spirit
00:06:37and to conclude
00:06:39the victory fell on us
00:06:41Great happiness
00:06:43But now, Sweenor, the Norwey's king
00:06:45craves composition
00:06:47nor would we deign him
00:06:49burial of his men till he disbursed
00:06:51at said come his inch
00:06:53ten thousand dollars to our general use
00:06:55No more that thane of Cawdor
00:06:57shall receive our bosom interest
00:07:03Go, pronounce his
00:07:05present death
00:07:07and with his former title greet
00:07:09Macbeth

00:08:53Thrice to mine
00:08:55And thrice again to make up mine
00:08:57Peace
00:08:59The charms wound
00:09:05So foul and fair a day
00:09:07I have not seen
00:09:09How far is't called to forays
00:09:17What are these?
00:09:19So withered, and so wild in their attire
00:09:21that look not like the inhabitants of the earth
00:09:23and yet are aren't. Live you?
00:09:25Or are you aught that man may question?
00:09:27You seem to understand me
00:09:29by each at once a choppy finger
00:09:31laying upon her skinny lips
00:09:33You should be women
00:09:35yet your beards forbid me to interpret that you are so
00:09:37Speak if you can, what are you?
00:09:39All hail, Macbeth
00:09:41Hail to thee, thane of Glamis
00:09:45All hail, Macbeth
00:09:47Hail to thee
00:09:49thane of Cawdor
00:09:51All hail, Macbeth
00:09:53that shalt be king hereafter
00:09:57Good sir, why do you start
00:09:59and seem to fear things that do sound so fair?
00:10:03In the name of truth
00:10:05Are you fantastical, or that indeed
00:10:07which outwardly you show?
00:10:09My noble partner, you greet with present grace
00:10:11and great prediction of noble having
00:10:13and of royal hope
00:10:15that he seems rapt withal
00:10:18To me you speak not
00:10:23If you can look into the seeds of time
00:10:25and say which grain will grow and which will not
00:10:27speak then to me
00:10:29who neither beg nor fear your favours nor your hate
00:10:31Hail
00:10:33Hail
00:10:35Lesser than Macbeth
00:10:39and greater
00:10:43Not so happy
00:10:45yet, much happier
00:10:49Thou shalt get kings
00:10:51though thou be none
00:10:53All hail, Macbeth
00:10:55and Banquo
00:10:57Banquo and Macbeth
00:10:59All hail
00:11:01Stay, you imperfect speakers
00:11:03Tell me more
00:11:05About my father's death
00:11:07I know I am thane of Glamis
00:11:09But how of Cawdor
00:11:11The thane of Cawdor lives a prosperous gentleman
00:11:13and the prospect of belief
00:11:15no more than to be Cawdor
00:11:19Say from whence you have this strange intelligence
00:11:21and why upon this blasted heath
00:11:23you stop our way with such prophetic greeting
00:11:27Speak
00:11:29I charge you
00:11:35The earth hath bubbles as the water has
00:11:37and these are of them
00:11:39Whither are they vanished
00:11:41Into the air
00:11:43and what seemed corporal melted
00:11:45as breath into the wind
00:11:47Would that stay
00:11:51Were such things here
00:11:53as we do speak about
00:11:55or have we eaten on the insane root
00:11:57that takes the reason, prisoner
00:11:59Your children shall be kings
00:12:01You shall be king
00:12:03and thane of Cawdor too
00:12:07Wont it not, sir
00:12:09The selfsame tune
00:12:11and words
00:12:13Who's here
00:12:15The king hath happily received
00:12:17Macbeth, the news of thy success
00:12:19We are sent to give thee
00:12:21from our royal master, thanks
00:12:23And for an earnest
00:12:25of a greater honour
00:12:27He bade me from him call thee
00:12:29thane of Cawdor
00:12:31In which addition hail most worthy thane
00:12:33For it is thine
00:12:35What, can the devil speak true
00:12:37Why do you dress me in borrowed robes
00:12:39Who was the thane lives yet
00:12:41But under heavy judgment there's that life
00:12:43which he deserves to lose
00:12:45Whether he was combined with those of Norway
00:12:47Or did line the rebel with hidden help and vantage
00:12:49Or that with both
00:12:51He laboured in his country's rack, I know not
00:12:53But treason's capital
00:12:55Confessed and proved have overthrown him
00:12:59Glamis and thane of Cawdor
00:13:03The greatest is behind
00:13:05Thanks for your pains
00:13:09Do you not hope your children shall be kings
00:13:11When those that gave the thane of Cawdor to me
00:13:13Promise no less to them
00:13:15That trusted home might yet enkindle you
00:13:17And to the crown besides the thane of Cawdor
00:13:21But tis strange
00:13:23And oftentimes to win us to our harm
00:13:25The instruments of darkness tell us truths
00:13:27Win us with honest trifles
00:13:29To betray us in deepest consequence
00:13:31Cousins, a word, I pray
00:13:33Two truths are told
00:13:35As happy prologues to the swelling act
00:13:37Of the imperial theme
00:13:39I thank you, gentlemen
00:13:45This supernatural soliciting
00:13:47Cannot be ill
00:13:49Cannot be good
00:13:53If ill, why has it given me
00:13:55Earnest of success
00:13:57Commencing in a truth
00:13:59I am thane of Cawdor
00:14:03If good, why do I yield
00:14:05To that suggestion
00:14:07Whose horrid image doth unfix my hair
00:14:09And make my seated heart
00:14:11Knock at my ribs against the use of nature
00:14:15Pleasant fears are less than
00:14:17Horrible imaginings
00:14:19My thought, whose murder
00:14:21Yet is but fantastical
00:14:25Shakes so my single state of man
00:14:27That function is smothered in surmise
00:14:31And nothing is
00:14:33But what is not
00:14:35Look how partners rapt
00:14:39If chance will have me king
00:14:41Why, chance may crown me
00:14:43Without my stir
00:14:45New honours come upon him
00:14:47Like our strange garments
00:14:49Cleave not to their mould but with the aid of youth
00:14:51Come what, come my
00:14:53Time and the hour
00:14:55I must through the roughest day
00:14:57Whether Macbeth, we stay upon your leisure
00:14:59Give me your favour, my dull brain
00:15:01Was wrought with things forgotten
00:15:03Kind gentlemen, your pains are registered
00:15:05Where every day I turn the leaf to read them
00:15:07Let's chalk the king
00:15:11Think upon what hath charged
00:15:13At more time, the interim having waded
00:15:15Let us speak our free hearts
00:15:17Each to other
00:15:19Very gladly
00:15:21Till then, enough
00:15:23Is
00:15:27Is execution done,
00:15:29Encordon?
00:15:31I have spoke with one that saw him die
00:15:33Who did report that very frankly
00:15:35He confessed his treasons, implored your highness' pardon
00:15:37And set forth a deep repentance
00:15:39Nothing in his life
00:15:41Became him like the leaving it
00:15:43He died as one who had been studded in his death
00:15:45To throw away the dearest thing
00:15:47He owed as to her a careless trifle
00:15:49There's no art to find the
00:15:51Mind's construction in the face
00:15:53He was a gentleman
00:15:55On whom I built an absolute trust
00:16:01Oh, worthiest cousin
00:16:05Macbeth
00:16:07Macbeth
00:16:09Macbeth
00:16:11Macbeth
00:16:13Macbeth
00:16:15Macbeth
00:16:21The sin of my ingratitude
00:16:23Even now is heavy on me
00:16:25Thou art so far before
00:16:27That swiftest wing of recompense
00:16:29Is slow to overtake thee
00:16:31Only I have left to say
00:16:33More is thy due than more than all can bear
00:16:35The service and the loyalty I owe
00:16:37In doing it
00:16:39Pays itself
00:16:41Your highness' part is to receive our duties
00:16:43And our duties are to your throne
00:16:45And state, children
00:16:47And servants, which do but what they should
00:16:49By doing everything safe toward your love
00:16:51And honour
00:16:53Welcome, hither
00:16:55I have begun to plant thee
00:16:57And will labour to make thee full of growth
00:17:01Noble Danquo, that is no less deserved
00:17:03Nor must be known no less to have done so
00:17:05Let me enfold thee
00:17:07And hold thee to my arm
00:17:09There, if I grow, the harvest is your own
00:17:11My plenteous joys
00:17:13Wanton in fullness
00:17:15Seek to hide themselves
00:17:17In drops of sorrow
00:17:47Sons
00:17:49Kinsmen
00:17:51Fains
00:17:53And you, whose places
00:17:55Are the nearest
00:17:57Know we will establish our estate
00:17:59Upon our eldest
00:18:01Malcolm
00:18:03Whom we name hereafter
00:18:05The Prince of Wales
00:18:07The Prince of Wales
00:18:09The Prince of Wales
00:18:11The Prince of Wales
00:18:13The Prince of Wales
00:18:15Whom we name hereafter
00:18:17The Prince of Cumberland
00:18:19Which honour must not unaccompanied
00:18:21Invest him only
00:18:23But signs of nobleness
00:18:25Like stars
00:18:27Shall shine on all
00:18:29Deserve us
00:18:31From hence
00:18:33To Inverness
00:18:35And lodge this night
00:18:37With our beloved Macbeth
00:18:39I'll be myself the harbinger
00:18:41And make joyful the hearing of my wife
00:18:43My worthy Cawdor
00:18:45So humbly take my leave
00:18:55The Prince of Cumberland
00:18:57That is a step on which I must fall down
00:18:59Or else I'll leap
00:19:01For in my way it lies
00:19:09Stars
00:19:11Let not night
00:19:13See my black and deep desires
00:19:15The eye wink
00:19:17At the hand
00:19:21Yet let that be
00:19:23Which the eye fears when it is done
00:19:25To see
00:19:29Too worthy Banquo
00:19:31He is full so valiant
00:19:33And in his commendations
00:19:35I am fed
00:19:37It is a banquet to Banquo
00:19:39To him whose care is gone before
00:19:41To bid us welcome
00:19:43It is a peerless kinsman
00:19:49Hail King that shall be
00:19:53Hail King that shall be
00:19:57They met me in the day of success
00:19:59And I have learned by the perfectest report
00:20:01They have more in
00:20:03They have more in them than mortal knowledge
00:20:05When I burnt in desire
00:20:07To question them further
00:20:09They made themselves air
00:20:11Into which they vanished
00:20:13Whilst I stood rapt in the wonder of it
00:20:15Came missives from the King
00:20:17Who all hailed me Thane of Cawdor
00:20:19By which title before
00:20:21These weird sisters saluted me
00:20:23And referred me to the coming on of time
00:20:25With Hail King that shall be
00:20:27This have I thought good to deliver thee
00:20:29My dearest partner, O Greatness
00:20:31That thou mightst not lose the dues of rejoicing
00:20:33Being ignorant of what greatness is promised thee
00:20:35Lay it to thy heart and farewell
00:20:41Glams thou art, and Cawdor
00:20:45And shalt be
00:20:47What thou art promised
00:20:53Yet do I fear thy nature
00:20:55It is too full of the milk of human kindness
00:20:57To catch the nearest way
00:20:59Thou wouldst be great
00:21:03But not without ambition
00:21:07But without the illness should it end it
00:21:11What thou wouldst highly
00:21:13That wouldst thou wholly
00:21:15Wouldst not play false
00:21:17And yet wouldst wrongly win
00:21:21That's to have great glams
00:21:23That which Christ thus thou must do
00:21:25If thou have it
00:21:27And that which rather thou dost fear to do
00:21:29Than wishest to be undone
00:21:31I fear thou
00:21:33That I may pour my spirits in thine ear
00:21:35And chastise with the valour of my tongue
00:21:37All that impedes thee from the golden round
00:21:39Which fate
00:21:41And metaphysical head
00:21:43Doth seem to have thee crowned with awe
00:21:47What is your tidings?
00:21:49The king comes here to-night
00:21:51Thou art mad to say it
00:21:55Is not thy master with him?
00:21:57Who whatsoever would have informed for preparation?
00:21:59Our thane is coming
00:22:01One of my fellows had the speed of him
00:22:03Who almost dead for breath had scarcely more than would make up his message
00:22:05Go give him tending
00:22:07He brings great news
00:22:11The raven himself is hoarse
00:22:15That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan
00:22:19Under my battlements
00:22:29Come
00:22:43Come, you spirits
00:22:47That tend on mortal thoughts
00:22:51Unsex me here
00:22:53And fill me from the crown to the toe
00:22:55Top full of direst cruelty
00:23:15Make thick my blood
00:23:19Stop up the access and passage to remorse
00:23:21That no compunctious visitings of nature
00:23:23Shake my fell purpose
00:23:25Nor keep peace
00:23:27Between the effect and it
00:23:31Come to my woman's breast
00:23:35And take my milk for gall
00:23:37You murdering ministers
00:23:41Wherever in your sightless substances
00:23:43You wait on nature's mischief
00:23:45Come thick night
00:23:47Come thick night
00:23:51And pour thee in the dunnest smoke of hell
00:23:55That my keen knife see not the wound it makes
00:23:59Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark
00:24:01To cry hold
00:24:03Hold
00:24:11Great lambs
00:24:13Worthy Cawdor
00:24:17Come both by the all hail hereafter
00:24:23Thy letters have transported me
00:24:25Beyond this ignorant present
00:24:27And I feel now the future in the instant
00:24:29My dearest love
00:24:31Duncan comes here tonight
00:24:33And when goes hence
00:24:35Tomorrow as he purposes
00:24:37Oh never shall some that morrow see
00:24:43Your face my thane
00:24:45As a book
00:24:47Where men may read strange matters
00:24:51To beguile the time
00:24:53Look like the time
00:24:55Bear welcome in your hand
00:24:57Your eye your tongue
00:24:59Look like the innocent flower
00:25:03But be the serpent under it
00:25:07He that's coming must be provided for
00:25:09And you shall put this night's great business
00:25:11Into my dispatch
00:25:13Which are to all our knights in days to come
00:25:15Give solely sovereign sway
00:25:17And master them
00:25:19We will speak further
00:25:21Only look up clear
00:25:23To alter favour ever
00:25:25Is to fear
00:25:33Leave all the rest
00:25:35To me
00:25:43Leave all the rest
00:25:45To me
00:25:53This castle hath a pleasant seat
00:25:55The air
00:25:57Nimbly and sweetly
00:25:59Recommends itself unto our gentle senses
00:26:01This guest of summer
00:26:03The temple-haunting martlet
00:26:05Doth approve by his loved mansionary
00:26:07That the heaven's breath smells
00:26:09Wooingly here
00:26:11There is no pity, freeze, buttress
00:26:13Nor coin of vantage
00:26:15But this bird hath made his pendant bed
00:26:17And procreant cradle
00:26:19Where they most read and haunt
00:26:21I have observed the air is delicate
00:26:25Our honoured hostess
00:26:29The love that follows us
00:26:31Sometime is our trouble
00:26:33Which still we thank as love
00:26:35Herein I teach you how you shall bid God yield us
00:26:37For your pains
00:26:39All our service
00:26:41In every point twice done
00:26:43And then done double
00:26:45Were poor and single business
00:26:47To contend against those honours
00:26:49Deep and broad
00:26:51Wherewith your majesty loads our house
00:26:53Where's the thane of Cawdor?
00:26:55We cost him at the heels
00:26:57And had a purpose
00:26:59To be his purveyor
00:27:01But he rides well
00:27:03And his great love
00:27:05Sharp as his spur
00:27:07Hath hoped him to his home
00:27:09Before us
00:27:11Give me your hand
00:27:13Conduct me to mine host
00:27:17We love him highly
00:27:19And shall continue
00:27:21Our graces towards him
00:27:23By your leave
00:27:25Host him
00:27:37If it were done when it is done
00:27:39Then to a well it were done quickly
00:27:41If the assassination
00:27:43Could trammel up the consequence
00:27:45And catch with his decease
00:27:47Success
00:27:49That but this blow
00:27:51Might be the be-all at the end
00:27:53Or here
00:27:55But here
00:27:57Upon this bank and shoal of time
00:27:59We'd jump the life to kill
00:28:01And we'd die
00:28:03But here
00:28:05We'd jump the life to kill
00:28:09But in these cases
00:28:11We still have
00:28:13Judgment here
00:28:15That we but teach
00:28:17Bloody instruction which being taught
00:28:19Returns to plague the inventor
00:28:21This even-handed
00:28:23Justice commends the ingredients
00:28:25Of our poisoned chalice to our own lips
00:28:29He's here in double trust
00:28:31First as I'm his kinsman
00:28:33And his subject
00:28:35Strong both against the deed
00:28:37Then as his host
00:28:39Who should against his murderer
00:28:41Shut the door
00:28:43Not bear the knife myself
00:28:47Besides
00:28:49This Duncan hath borne his faculties
00:28:51So meek, hath been so clear
00:28:53In his great office
00:28:55That his virtues will plead like angels
00:28:57Trumpet-tongued against
00:28:59The deep damnation of his taking off
00:29:01And pity
00:29:03Like a naked newborn babe
00:29:05Striding the blast
00:29:07Or heaven's cherub
00:29:09Inhorsed upon the sightless couriers of the air
00:29:11Will blow the horrid deed
00:29:13In every eye
00:29:15The tears will drown the wind
00:29:21I have no spur
00:29:23To prick the side of my intent
00:29:25But only vaulting ambition
00:29:27Which o'erleaps itself
00:29:29And falls on the other
00:29:31Hannah
00:29:35What news?
00:29:37He has almost supped
00:29:39Why have you left the chamber?
00:29:41Hath he asked it for me?
00:29:43No you not, he has
00:29:45We will proceed no further in this business
00:29:47He hath honoured me of late
00:29:49And I have bought golden opinions
00:29:51From all sorts of people
00:29:53Which will be worn now in their newest gloss
00:29:55I will not cast aside so soon
00:29:57Was a hope drunk wherein you dressed yourself?
00:29:59Hath it slept since?
00:30:01And wakes it now to look so green
00:30:03And pale
00:30:05At what it did so freely
00:30:09What?
00:30:11From this time
00:30:13Such I account thy love
00:30:17Art thou afeard to be the same
00:30:19In thine own act and valour as art in desire?
00:30:22Wouldst thou have that which thou esteems
00:30:24The ornament of life
00:30:26And live a coward in thine own esteem
00:30:28Letting I dare not wait upon I would
00:30:30At the poor gut of the addict
00:30:32Prithee peace
00:30:34I dare do all that may become a man
00:30:36Who dares do more is none
00:30:39What beast was then
00:30:41That made you break this enterprise to me?
00:30:45When you durst do it
00:30:47Then you were a man
00:30:51And to be more than what you were
00:30:53You would be so much more of a man
00:30:57Nor time nor place did then appear
00:30:59And yet you would make both
00:31:01They have made themselves
00:31:03And that their fitness
00:31:05Now does I make you
00:31:09I have given suck
00:31:11And know how tender tis to love the babe that milks me
00:31:13I would while it was smiling in my face
00:31:15Have plucked my nipple from its boneless gums
00:31:17And dashed the brains out
00:31:19Had I so sworn
00:31:23As you have done
00:31:25To this
00:31:31If we should fail
00:31:33We fail
00:31:35But screw your courage
00:31:37To the staking place
00:31:39And we'll not fail
00:31:43When Duncan is asleep
00:31:45Whereto the rather shall his day's hard journey
00:31:47Soundly invite him
00:31:49His two chamberlains will I
00:31:51With wine and wassail so convince
00:31:53That memory the water of the brain
00:31:55Shall be a fume
00:31:57And the receipt of reason a limber only
00:31:59When in swinish sleep
00:32:01Their drenched natures lie as in a death
00:32:03What cannot you and I perform
00:32:05Upon the unguarded Duncan
00:32:07What not put upon his spongy officers
00:32:09Who shall bear the guilt
00:32:11Of our great quell
00:32:13Bring forth men, children, and riff
00:32:15For thy undaunted mettle
00:32:17Should compose nothing but nails
00:32:23Will it not be received
00:32:25When we have marked with blood
00:32:27Those sleepy two of his own chamber
00:32:29And used their very daggers
00:32:31That they have done it
00:32:35Who dares receive it other
00:32:37As we shall make our griefs and glamour
00:32:39Roar upon his death
00:32:41Roar upon his death
00:32:43I am settled, and bend up each corporal agent
00:32:45To his terrible feat
00:32:47Away, and mock the time with fairest show
00:32:53False face must hide
00:32:57What the false heart doth know
00:33:11How goes the night, boy?
00:33:27The moon is down. I have not heard the clock.
00:33:31And she goes down at twelve?
00:33:35I take it is later, sir.
00:33:37Hold.
00:33:41Take my sword.
00:33:47There's husbandry in heaven.
00:33:49Their candles are all out.
00:33:55Take thou that too.
00:34:01Thy heavy summons lies like lead upon me.
00:34:03Yet I would not sleep.
00:34:15Merciful powers!
00:34:17Restrain in me the cursed thoughts
00:34:19That nature gives way to in repose.
00:34:25Give me my sword.
00:34:33Give me my sword.
00:34:47Who's there?
00:34:49A front.
00:34:53What, sir?
00:34:55Not yet addressed?
00:34:57The king's abed.
00:34:59He hath been in unusual pleasure
00:35:01To give his largest to your offices.
00:35:03Nay more, your wife he greets withal
00:35:05By the name of most kind hostess.
00:35:07And shut up in measureless content.
00:35:09Being unprepared,
00:35:11Our will became the servant to defect.
00:35:13Which else should free have wrought?
00:35:17All's well.
00:35:23I dreamt last night
00:35:25Of the three weird sisters.
00:35:27To you they have showed some truth.
00:35:29I think not of them.
00:35:33Yet, when we can entreat an hour to serve,
00:35:35We'd spend it in some words
00:35:37Upon their business.
00:35:39If you would grant the time.
00:35:41At your kindest leisure.
00:35:43If you shall cleave to my consent when tis,
00:35:45It shall make honour for you.
00:35:47So I lose none in seeking to augment it,
00:35:49But still keep my bosom franchised
00:35:51And allegiance clear.
00:35:53I will be counselled.
00:35:55Good repose, the one.
00:35:59Thank you, sir.
00:36:01The like to you.
00:36:09Go, bid thy mistress,
00:36:11When my drink is ready, she strike upon the bell.
00:36:13Get you to bed.
00:36:29Good night.
00:36:51Is this the dagger
00:36:53Which I see before me?
00:36:55A handle
00:36:57Toward my hand?
00:37:01Come, let me catch thee.
00:37:05Has they not?
00:37:09I need to see this still.
00:37:11Are there not fatal visions
00:37:13Sensible to feeling as to sight?
00:37:15Or are there but a dagger of the mind,
00:37:17A false creation
00:37:19Proceeding from the heat-oppressive brain?
00:37:21I see thee.
00:37:23I see thee yet,
00:37:25In form as palpable as this,
00:37:27Which now I draw.
00:37:31That martial smell, the way that I was going,
00:37:33And such an instrument I was to use,
00:37:35Mine eyes are made the fools
00:37:37Of the other senses.
00:37:39Or elseworth
00:37:41All the rest.
00:37:43And see thee still,
00:37:45And on thy blade
00:37:47And th' dudgeon
00:37:49Gouts of blood
00:37:51Which was not so before.
00:37:59There's no such thing.
00:38:03It is the bloody business
00:38:05Which informs thus to mine eyes.
00:38:09Now,
00:38:13For the one half-world nature
00:38:15Seems dead,
00:38:17And wicked dreams abuse
00:38:19A certain sleep,
00:38:21Which craft celebrates pale
00:38:23Hecate's offerings,
00:38:25And withered murder, alarmed
00:38:27By his sentinel, the wolf,
00:38:29Whose howls his watch thus.
00:38:31This stealthy pace,
00:38:33With Tarquin's
00:38:35Ravishing stride,
00:38:37Toward his design
00:38:39Moves
00:38:41Like a ghost.
00:38:45Thou sure and firm-set earth,
00:38:47Turn up my steps which way they walk,
00:38:49For fear thy very stones
00:38:51Pray to my whereabouts,
00:38:53And take this present horror
00:38:55From the Titan
00:38:57Which now suits within.
00:39:03Whilst I threat he lives,
00:39:09I go,
00:39:11And it is done.
00:39:13The bell
00:39:15Invites me.
00:39:17Here it's not Duncan,
00:39:19For it is her knell
00:39:21That summons thee to heaven
00:39:23Or to hell.
00:39:43That which hath made them drunk,
00:39:59Hath made me bold.
00:40:01What hath quenched them
00:40:03Hath given me
00:40:05Wild luck.
00:40:07Peace.
00:40:09It was the owl
00:40:11That shrieked.
00:40:13The fatal bellman
00:40:15Which gives the stern'st good night.
00:40:21Here's about it.
00:40:23The doors are open,
00:40:25And the surfeited grooms
00:40:27Do mock their charge with snores.
00:40:29I have drugged their possets,
00:40:31That death and nature
00:40:33Do contend about them,
00:40:35Whether they live
00:40:37Or die.
00:40:41Alack,
00:40:43I am afeard they have awaked,
00:40:45And it is not done.
00:40:47The attempt to mock the deed confounds us.
00:40:49I laid their daggers ready.
00:40:51He could not miss them.
00:40:53Had he not resembled my father
00:40:55As he slept,
00:40:57I had done it.
00:41:03My house screams calm.
00:41:07I have done the deed.
00:41:09I heard the owl scream,
00:41:11And the crickets cry.
00:41:13Did not you speak?
00:41:15No.
00:41:17Who lies in the second chamber?
00:41:19Donald Bain.
00:41:21This is a sorry sight.
00:41:23A foolish thought
00:41:25To say a sorry sight.
00:41:27As one did laugh in his sleep,
00:41:29And one cried murder,
00:41:31That they did wake each other.
00:41:33I stood and heard them.
00:41:35But they did say their prayers
00:41:37Together.
00:41:39One cried God bless us,
00:41:41And our men the other,
00:41:43As they'd seen me with these hangman's hands.
00:41:45Listening their fear,
00:41:47I could not say our men,
00:41:49When they did say God bless us.
00:41:51Consider it not so deeply.
00:41:53But wherefore could not I pronounce our men?
00:41:55I had most need of blessing,
00:41:57But our men stuck in my throat.
00:41:59These deeds must not be thought after these ways,
00:42:01So it will make us mad.
00:42:03The thought I heard a voice
00:42:05That does murder sleep.
00:42:07The innocent sleep.
00:42:09Sleep that knits up
00:42:11The reveled sleeve of care.
00:42:13The death of each day's life.
00:42:15The sore labour's bath.
00:42:17The arm of hurt minds.
00:42:19Great nature's second course.
00:42:21Truth nourisher in life's feast.
00:42:23What do you mean?
00:42:25Still it cried sleep no more.
00:42:27All the house clams hath murdered sleep.
00:42:29Therefore Cawdor shall sleep no more.
00:42:31Macbeth shall sleep no more.
00:42:33I will strength the things that reign sickly of things.
00:42:37Go get some water.
00:42:39And wash this filthy witness from your hands.
00:42:43Why did you bring the daggers from the place?
00:42:45They must lie there.
00:42:47Go carry them and smear the sleepy grooms with blood.
00:42:49I'll go no more.
00:42:51I am afeard to think what I have done.
00:42:53Look on it again.
00:42:55I dare not.
00:42:57Infirm of purpose.
00:43:03Give me the daggers.
00:43:07The sleeping and the dead are but as pictures.
00:43:11Tis the eye of childhood which fears a painted devil.
00:43:13If ye do bleed,
00:43:15I'll gild the faces of the grooms withal.
00:43:17For it must seem their guilt.
00:43:25Who's that knocking?
00:43:29How is it with me
00:43:31that the noise appalls me?
00:43:35What hands are here?
00:43:39They pluck out mine eyes.
00:43:45Will all great Neptune's ocean
00:43:47wash this blood clean
00:43:49from my hand?
00:43:53No, this my hand
00:43:55will rather the multitude
00:43:57in her seas
00:43:59come down
00:44:01making the green
00:44:07one red.
00:44:23My hands are of your colour
00:44:25but I
00:44:27shame
00:44:29to wear a heart so white.
00:44:33I hear a knocking at the south entry.
00:44:35Return we to our chamber.
00:44:37A little water
00:44:39clears us of this deed.
00:44:41How easy is it then.
00:44:43Your constancy has left you unattended.
00:44:45Hark, more knocking.
00:44:47Get on your nightgown.
00:44:49Lest occasion call us and show us to be watchers.
00:44:51Be not lost
00:44:53so poorly in your thoughts.
00:44:55To know my deed
00:44:57t'were best
00:44:59not to know myself.
00:45:03Wake, Duncan, with that knocking.
00:45:07That would that couldst.
00:45:09Knock, knock, knock.
00:45:21Here's a knocking indeed.
00:45:23A man worth porter
00:45:25of hell gay he should hold
00:45:27turning the key.
00:45:31Knock, knock, knock.
00:45:35Who's there?
00:45:39Knock, knock, knock.
00:45:45In the name of
00:45:47Beelzebub.
00:45:51See, here's a farmer
00:45:53that hanged himself
00:45:57on the expectation of plenty.
00:46:01Come in,
00:46:03time-server.
00:46:05Have napkins enough about you.
00:46:07Wait for it.
00:46:09Knock, knock, who's there?
00:46:11In the other devil's name.
00:46:15See, here's
00:46:17an equivocator
00:46:19who can swear
00:46:21in both his scale
00:46:23against either scale
00:46:25who committed treason enough for God's sake
00:46:27yet could not equivocate
00:46:29to heaven.
00:46:31Come in,
00:46:33equivocator.
00:46:35Knock, knock, knock.
00:46:37Who's there?
00:46:39Faith, here's
00:46:41an English tailor
00:46:43who come hither for stealing
00:46:45out of a
00:46:47French horse.
00:46:51Come in, tailor.
00:46:53Here you may roost your goose.
00:46:55Knock, knock.
00:46:57Never that quiet.
00:46:59What are you?
00:47:01This place is too cold for hell.
00:47:05I'll devil portrait
00:47:07no further.
00:47:09I had thought
00:47:11to have let in some of all professions
00:47:13that go the primrose
00:47:15way
00:47:17to the everlasting bonfire.
00:47:21Anon.
00:47:25Anon.
00:47:31I pray you,
00:47:33equivocator.
00:47:37Was it so late, friend,
00:47:39ere you went to bed, that you do lie so late?
00:47:41Faith, sir, we was carousing
00:47:43till the second cock.
00:47:45And drink, sir,
00:47:47is a great provoker
00:47:49of three things.
00:47:51Of what three things does drink especially provoke?
00:47:53Marry, sir, nose-painting, sleep and urine.
00:47:55Lecture me, sir.
00:47:57Drink provokes
00:47:59and unprovokes.
00:48:01It provokes a desire, but it takes away the performance.
00:48:05Therefore, much drink may be said
00:48:07to be an equivocator
00:48:09with lecture.
00:48:11It makes him and it mars him.
00:48:13It sets him on.
00:48:15It takes him off.
00:48:17It makes him stand to and not stand
00:48:19to.
00:48:21In conclusion, equivocates him in a sleep
00:48:23and giving him the lie
00:48:25leaves him.
00:48:27I believe drink gave
00:48:29thee the lie last night.
00:48:31That is dead, sir,
00:48:33in the very throat of me.
00:48:37Is thy master stirring?
00:48:39Our knocking has awaked him. Here he comes.
00:48:43Good morrow, noble sir.
00:48:45Good morrow, both.
00:48:47Is the king stirring, worthy thane?
00:48:49Not yet.
00:48:51He did command me to call timely on him. I've almost slipped the hour.
00:48:55I'll bring you to him.
00:48:59I know this is a joyful
00:49:01trouble to you, but yet, Tiswell,
00:49:03the labour we delight in
00:49:05physics pen.
00:49:07This is the dock.
00:49:09I'll make Sir Bolter call
00:49:11for Tismy limited service.
00:49:17Goes the king hence today?
00:49:19He does. He did appoint, sir.
00:49:25And this is the dock.
00:49:27The night
00:49:29has been unruly.
00:49:31Where we lay, our chimneys were blown down.
00:49:33And as they say,
00:49:35lamentings heard in the air.
00:49:37Strange screams of death
00:49:39and prophesying with accents terrible
00:49:41of dire combustion and confused events
00:49:43knew hatch
00:49:45to the woeful time.
00:49:49The obscure bird
00:49:51clamoured the lived long night.
00:49:53Some say the earth
00:49:55was ever ascended shake.
00:49:57Twas a rough night.
00:49:59My young remembrance cannot parallel a fellow tooth.
00:50:01Oh, horror,
00:50:03horror,
00:50:05horror.
00:50:07What's the matter?
00:50:09A tongue nor heart can I conceive
00:50:11nor name thee.
00:50:13What is the matter?
00:50:15Confusion now hath made his masterpiece.
00:50:19Most sacrilegious murder
00:50:21hath broke up the lord's anointed temple
00:50:23and stole, thence,
00:50:25the life of the building.
00:50:27What is it you say?
00:50:29The life?
00:50:31Me knew his majesty.
00:50:33Approach the chamber. Destroy your sight with the new gogon.
00:50:35Do not bid me speak.
00:50:37See and then speak yourselves.
00:50:39Awake! Awake!
00:50:41Ring the alarm bell!
00:50:45Murder and treason!
00:50:47Banquo and Donalbain!
00:50:49Malcolm!
00:50:51Awake!
00:50:53Shake off this downy sleep,
00:50:55death's counterfeit, and look on death itself.
00:50:59Banquo!
00:51:01Malcolm!
00:51:03Ring the bell!
00:51:15What's the business?
00:51:17What's such a hideous trumpet call
00:51:19in the sleepers of this house?
00:51:21Speak.
00:51:25Speak!
00:51:27Oh, gentle lady, it is not for you to hear what I can speak.
00:51:29And the repetition in a woman's ear
00:51:31would murder as it fell.
00:51:33Oh, Banquo!
00:51:37Banquo, our royal master's murdered.
00:51:39What?
00:51:41In our house?
00:51:43Too cruel anywhere, did I?
00:51:45I pray thee, contradict thyself
00:51:47and say it is not so.
00:51:49Had I but died an hour before this chance,
00:51:53I'd lived a blessed time.
00:51:57For from this instant
00:51:59there's nothing serious in mortality
00:52:01of all this but toys.
00:52:03Renown and grace
00:52:05is dead.
00:52:07The wine of life
00:52:09is drawn, and the mere lease
00:52:11is left this vault to braggle.
00:52:17What is amiss?
00:52:19You are, and you do not know it.
00:52:27The spring, the heads, the fountain
00:52:29of your blood is stopped.
00:52:33The very source of it is stopped.
00:52:43Your royal father's murdered.
00:52:47By whom?
00:52:51Those of his chamber
00:52:53as it seemed,
00:52:55had done't.
00:52:57Their hands and faces
00:52:59were all patched
00:53:01with blood.
00:53:03So were their daggers,
00:53:05which on white we find upon their pillows.
00:53:07They stared and were distracted.
00:53:09No man's life was to be
00:53:11trusted with them.
00:53:13Oh, yet I do repent me of my fury
00:53:15that I did kill them.
00:53:17Wherefore did you so?
00:53:21Who can be wise,
00:53:23amazed, temperate
00:53:25and furious, loyal and neutral
00:53:27in a moment?
00:53:29No man.
00:53:31The expedition of my
00:53:33violent love outran the pauser
00:53:35reason.
00:53:37Here lay Duncan, his silver skin
00:53:39laced with his golden blood.
00:53:41For at his gashed
00:53:43stabs looked like a breach
00:53:45in nature for ruin's wasteful entrance.
00:53:49There the murderers
00:53:51steeped in the colours of their
00:53:53trade, their daggers unmanly breached
00:53:55with gore.
00:53:57Who could refrain
00:53:59that had a heart to love
00:54:01and in that heart courage
00:54:03to make his love known?
00:54:05Help me, Hans.
00:54:07Oh.
00:54:09Look to the lady.
00:54:13Why do we hold our tongues that most may
00:54:15claim this argument for ours?
00:54:17What should be spoken here, where our fate hid
00:54:19in an augur hole may rush and seize us?
00:54:21It's a way. Our tears
00:54:23are not yet brewed, nor our strong
00:54:25sorrow on the foot of motion.
00:54:27To the lady.
00:54:37And when we have our naked
00:54:39frailties hid that suffer at exposure,
00:54:41let us meet and question
00:54:43this most bloody piece of work to know it further.
00:54:45Fears and scruples shake us.
00:54:47In the great hand of God
00:54:49I stand, and thence against
00:54:51the undivulged pretence I fight
00:54:53of treasonous malice.
00:54:55And so do I. So all.
00:54:59Let's briefly put on manly readiness
00:55:03and meet in the hall together.
00:55:05Well contented.
00:55:11What will you do?
00:55:25Let's not consort with them.
00:55:27To show an unfelt sorrow is an office
00:55:29which the false man does easy.
00:55:31I'll to England, to Ireland I.
00:55:33Our separated fortune
00:55:35shall keep us both the safer.
00:55:37Where we are there's daggers
00:55:39in men's smiles.
00:55:41The nearer in blood, the nearer bloody.
00:55:43And our safest way is to avoid the aim,
00:55:45therefore to a horse.
00:55:47And let us not be dainty of leave-taking
00:55:49but shift away.
00:55:53Let's warrant in that theft
00:55:55which steals itself
00:55:57when there's no mercy left.
00:55:59Three score and ten.
00:56:01I can remember well
00:56:03within the volume
00:56:05of which time
00:56:07I have seen
00:56:09hours dreadful
00:56:11and things strange.
00:56:13But this sore night
00:56:15hath trifled
00:56:17former knowings.
00:56:19Our good father,
00:56:21our seer'st the heavens,
00:56:23hath troubled with many
00:56:25and many things.
00:56:27Our seer'st the heavens,
00:56:29hath troubled with man's act,
00:56:31threatens his bloody stage
00:56:33by the clock'd his day.
00:56:35Yet dark night strangles the travelling lamp.
00:56:37Is night's predominance
00:56:39or the day's shame?
00:56:41But darkness does the face of earth
00:56:43end tomb when living light
00:56:45should kiss it.
00:56:47It is unnatural, even like the deed that's done.
00:56:49How goes the world, sir?
00:56:51Now.
00:56:53Why?
00:56:55See you not?
00:56:57It's none who did this
00:56:59more than bloody deed.
00:57:01Those that were Betheth's slain.
00:57:03Alas, the day!
00:57:05What good could they pretend?
00:57:07They were suborned.
00:57:09Malcolm and Donalbain, the king's two sons,
00:57:11are stolen away and fled,
00:57:13which puts upon them suspicion of the deed.
00:57:15Gainst nature, still.
00:57:17Thriftless ambition
00:57:19that will raven up thine own life's means.
00:57:21Then,
00:57:23it is most likely sovereignty
00:57:25will fall upon Macbeth.
00:57:27He is already named and gone to Scone to be invested.
00:57:29Where is Duncan's body?
00:57:33Carried to Coombe Kill,
00:57:35the sacred storehouse of his predecessors
00:57:37and guardian of their bones.
00:57:39Will you to Scone?
00:57:41No, cuz. I'll home to Fife.
00:57:43Well.
00:57:45I will fither.
00:57:47Well.
00:57:49May you see things well done there.
00:57:51And you.
00:57:55Lest our old robes sit easier than our new.
00:58:01Farewell, father.
00:58:03God's benison go with you.
00:58:05And with those
00:58:07that would make good of bad
00:58:09and friends of fools.

00:59:17Thou hast it now, King, Cawdor, Glamis, all, as the weird women promised, and I fear thou
00:59:35play'st most foully for it.
00:59:38Yet it was said it should not stand in thy posterity, but that myself should be the root
00:59:45and father of many kings.
00:59:48If there come truth from them, as upon thee, Macbeth, their speeches shine, why, by the
00:59:54verities on thee made good, may they not be my oracles as well, and set me up in hope?
01:00:00Hush no more.
01:00:05Here's our chief guest.
01:00:06If he had been forgotten, it had been as a gap in our great feast and all thing unbecoming.
01:00:12Tonight we hold a solemn supper, sir, and I request your presence.
01:00:15Let your highness command upon me, to the which my duties are with the most indissoluble
01:00:20tie for ever knit.
01:00:22Ride you this afternoon?
01:00:23Ay, my good lord.
01:00:24I should have else desired your good advice, if this day's catchful.
01:00:29But we'll take to-morrow.
01:00:30Is it far, you ride?
01:00:31As far, my lord, as we'll fill up the time to exnown supper.
01:00:35Go not my horse, the better I must become a borrower of the night for a dark hour at
01:00:38wedge.
01:00:39Fail not our feast.
01:00:40My lord, I will not.
01:00:42We hear our bloody cousins are bestowed in England and in Ireland, not confessing their
01:00:46cruel parasite, filling their hearers with strange invention.
01:00:51But of that to-morrow, when therewithal, we shall have cause of state, craving us jointly.
01:00:55Hide you to horse.
01:00:56Adieu till you return at night.
01:00:58Goes Fleance with you?
01:01:01Ay, my good lord.
01:01:04Our time does call upon us.
01:01:05I wish your horses swift and sure to foot, and so I do commend you to their backs.
01:01:08Farewell.
01:01:09Let every man be master of his time till seven at night, to make society the sweeter welcome.
01:01:26We'll keep ourself till suppertime alone.
01:01:29Well, then, God be with you.
01:01:39Fylla, a word with you.
01:01:53Attend those men.
01:01:54Our pleasure.
01:01:55They are, my lord, without the palace gate.
01:01:56What is the matter, Horace?
01:02:01To be thus is nothing but to be safely thus.
01:02:09Our fears in Banquo stick deep, and in his royalty of nature reigns that which will be
01:02:15feared.
01:02:16Tis much he dares, and to that dauntless temper of his mind he hath a wisdom that doth guide
01:02:22his valour to act in safety.
01:02:24There is none but he whose being I do fear.
01:02:29And under him my genius is rebuked, as it is said Mark Antony's was by Caesar.
01:02:36He chid the sisters when first they put the name of king upon me, and bade them speak
01:02:41to him.
01:02:42Then, prophet-like, they hailed him father to a line of kings.
01:02:47On my head they placed a footless crown, and put a barren sceptre in my grip, thence
01:02:52to be wrenched by an unlineal hand, no son of mine succeeding.
01:02:56If it be so, for Banquo's issue have I filed my mind.
01:03:02For them, the gracious Duncan, have I murdered.
01:03:06Put rancours in the vessel of my peace only for them, and mine eternal jewel given to
01:03:10the common enemy of man, to make them kings, the seed of Banquo, kings.
01:03:18Rather than so, come faint into the list, and champion me to the utterance.
01:03:25Who's there?
01:03:31Now go to the door, and stay there till we're caught.
01:03:38Was it not yesterday we spoke together?
01:03:40It was, sir, please, your highness.
01:03:42Well, then, have you considered of my speeches?
01:03:46No, that it was he in the times past who held you so under fortune, who you thought had
01:03:57been our innocent self.
01:04:00This I made good to you at our last conference, passed in probation with you how you were
01:04:05born in hand, how crossed the instruments, who wrought with them, and all things else
01:04:10which write to half a soul, and to a notion crazed, say, thus did Banquo.
01:04:15You made it known to us.
01:04:16I did, sir, and went further, which is now our point of second meeting.
01:04:30Do you find your patience so predominant in your nature that you can let this go?
01:04:35Are you so gospelled to pray for this good man, and for his issue, whose heavy hand hath
01:04:41bowed you to the grave, and beggared yours for ever?
01:04:45We are men, my liege.
01:04:47Aye, in the catalogue you go for men, as hounds and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs,
01:04:54chuffs, water rugs, and demi-wolves are kept all by the name of dogs.
01:05:01The valued file distinguishes the swift, slow, the subtle, the housekeeper, the hunter,
01:05:09every one, according to that gift which bounteous nature hath in him closed, whereby he does
01:05:14receive particular addition from the bill that writes them all alike, and so of men.
01:05:22Now, if you have a station in the file, not in the worst rank of manhood, say it, and
01:05:33I will put that business in your bosoms, whose execution takes your enemy off me.
01:05:38I am one, my liege, whom the vile blows and buffets of the world have so incensed that
01:05:42I am reckless what I do, despite the world.
01:05:45Nay, another.
01:05:46Both of you know Banquo was your enemy.
01:05:49True, my lord.
01:05:53So is he mine, and in such bloody distance that every minute of his being thrusts against
01:06:02my nearest of life, and though I could with bare-faced power sweep him from my sight and
01:06:10bid my will avouch it, yet I must not, or certain friends, who are both his and mine,
01:06:18whose lives I may not drop, but wail his fall, who I myself strike never.
01:06:24And thence it is that I, to your assistance, do make love, masking the business from the
01:06:31common eye for sundry weighty reasons.
01:06:35We will, my lord, perform what you command us, though our lives stand at...
01:06:38Your spirits shine through you.
01:06:43Within this hour, at most, I will acquaint you where to plant yourselves, advise you
01:06:46of the perfect spire, the time, the moment on it, for it must be done tonight, and something
01:06:49from the palace.
01:06:50Always thought that I require a clearness.
01:06:53And with him, too, leave no rubs nor botches, and the work fleers.
01:06:58His son, who keeps him company, whose absence is no less material to me than is his father's,
01:07:03must embrace the fate of that dark hour.
01:07:06Resolve yourselves apart.
01:07:09I'll come to you anon.
01:07:11We are resolved, my lord.
01:07:13I'll call upon you straight.
01:07:16It is concluded.
01:07:18Abide with him.
01:07:29Vanquor, thy soul's flight, if it find heaven, must find it out tonight.
01:07:43Is Vanquor gone from court?
01:07:53Ay, madam, but returns again tonight.
01:07:57Say to the king, I would attend his leisure, for a few words.
01:08:03Madam, I will.
01:08:06Nought's had, all spent, when our desire is got without content.
01:08:16Tis safer to be that which we destroy, than by destruction, dwell in doubtful joy.
01:08:26O now, my lord.
01:08:39Why do you keep alone?
01:08:43Of sorriest fancies your companions making,
01:08:46using those thoughts which should indeed have died with him they think on.
01:08:51Things without all remedy should be without regard.
01:08:55What's done is done.
01:08:58We have scotched the snake, not killed it.
01:09:01She'll close and be herself,
01:09:03whilst our poor malice remains in danger of her former tooth.
01:09:10But let the frame of things disjoint, and both the world's sorrows,
01:09:16But let the frame of things disjoint, and both the world's suffer,
01:09:21ere we will eat our meal in fear,
01:09:24and sleep in the affliction of these terrible dreams that shake us nightly.
01:09:30Better be with the dead, whom we to gain our peace have sent to peace,
01:09:34than on the torture of the mind, to lie in restless ecstasy.
01:09:41Duncan is in his grave, after life's fitful fever.
01:09:46He sleeps well.
01:09:48Treason's done his worst.
01:09:49Nor steel, nor poison, malice domestic, foreign, nothing can touch him further.
01:09:54Come on!
01:09:57Gentle, my lord.
01:09:58Sleek are your rugged looks.
01:10:00Be bright and jovial among your guests tonight.
01:10:03So shall I, love.
01:10:07And so I pray thee, let your remembrance apply to Banquo.
01:10:11Present him eminence both with eye and tongue,
01:10:14and say for a while that we must lave our honours in these flattering streams,
01:10:18and make our faces vizards to our hearts, disguising what they are.
01:10:22You must leave this!
01:10:24Oh, full of scorpions is my mind, dear wife.
01:10:31Oh, no, stop it.
01:10:38Well, know'st that Banquo and his fleance live.
01:10:41But in their nature's corpse not a turn.
01:10:44Well, there's comforts yet.
01:10:46They are assailable.
01:10:48Then be thou jocund.
01:10:51Ere the bat hath flown his cloistered flight,
01:10:55Ere to black Hecate summons the shard-born beetle,
01:10:59With his drowsy hums hath rung night's yawning peal,
01:11:04There shall be done a deed of dreadful note.
01:11:07What's to be done?
01:11:08Be innocent of the knowledge, dearest chuck,
01:11:13Till thou applaud the deed.
01:11:16Come, sealing night, scoff up the tender eye of pitiful day,
01:11:22And with thy bloody and invisible hand cancel and tear to pieces that great band which keeps me pale.
01:11:32Light thickens,
01:11:39And the crow makes wing to the rookie wood.
01:11:44Good things of day begin to droop and drowse,
01:11:49Whilst night's black agents to their praise do rise.
01:11:57Thou marvell'st at my words.
01:12:00But hold this still.
01:12:03Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill.
01:12:08So, to thee go with me.
01:12:49It is not our mistrust that he delivers our offices.
01:12:52All we have to do to the direction just.
01:12:59Well, stand with us.
01:13:07The west yoke slumbers with some streaks a day.
01:13:10Now spurs the lifted traveller apace to gain the timely end.
01:13:14Hark! I hear horses.
01:13:18It's the light to our home.
01:13:19Then, tis he.
01:13:24His horses go about.
01:13:26Almost a mile, but he does usually.
01:13:29So all men do, from hence to the palace gate, make it their walk.
01:13:33A light, a light.
01:13:35Tis he. Stand to it.
01:13:48It will be rain tonight.
01:13:50Let it come down.
01:13:53Treachery!
01:13:54Lies!
01:13:55Help!
01:13:56Lies!
01:13:57Lies!
01:13:58Promise!
01:13:59Revenge!
01:14:02Old slave!
01:14:14Who did strike out the light?
01:14:16It was not the wind.
01:14:17There's but one down.
01:14:19The sun is fled.
01:14:21We've lost best half of our affair.
01:14:23Let's away and see how much is done.
01:14:47You have your own degrees.
01:14:49Sit down at first and last.
01:14:51The heartier welcome.
01:14:52Thanks to your majesty.
01:14:55Ourself will mingle with society and play the humble host.
01:14:59Our hostess keeps her state, but in best time we shall require her welcome.
01:15:04Pronounce it for me, sir, to all our friends.
01:15:06For my heart speaks.
01:15:08For my heart speaks.
01:15:10For my heart speaks.
01:15:12For my heart speaks.
01:15:14For my heart speaks.
01:15:17They are welcome.
01:15:18See then, can't it be with their hearts?
01:15:20Thanks.
01:15:21Both sides are even.
01:15:23Here I'll sit in the midst.
01:15:25But first, we'll drink a measure of the table round.
01:15:38There's blood up on my face.
01:15:42It is Banquo's then.
01:15:44It is better thee without than he within.
01:15:55Is he dispatched?
01:15:56My lord, his throat is cut.
01:15:59That I did for him.
01:16:00Thou art the best of the cut throats.
01:16:03Yet he's good that did the like for Fleers.
01:16:06If thou didst it, thou art the non-parer.
01:16:14Most royal sir, Fleers escaped.
01:16:26Then comes my fit again.
01:16:28I'd else been perfect, whole as the marble.
01:16:32Founded as the rock.
01:16:34As broad and general as the casing air.
01:16:37But now I'm cabined, cribbed, confined, abandoned to saucy doubts and fears.
01:16:42But Banquo's safe.
01:16:44Ay, my good lord.
01:16:46Safe in a ditch he bides, with twenty trenched gashes on his head.
01:16:50The least a death to nature.
01:16:52Thanks for that.
01:16:53There the groan serpent lies, the worm that's fled has nature.
01:16:56That in time shall venom breed.
01:16:58No teeth for the present.
01:16:59My royal lord, you do not give the cheers.
01:17:01Sweet remembrance, sir.
01:17:04I'll drink a measure of the table round.
01:17:06It is Banquo's then.
01:17:08It is better thee without than he within.
01:17:11Now, good digestion waits on appetite.
01:17:13And health on boat.
01:17:15Here had we now our country's honour.
01:17:17Roofed were the graced person of our Banquo present,
01:17:19who may we rather challenge for unkindness than pity for mischance.
01:17:21His absence, sir, lays blame upon his promise to us.
01:17:23He's a man of his word.
01:17:25He's a man of his word.
01:17:27He's a man of his word.
01:17:29He's a man of his word.
01:17:31He's a man of his word.
01:17:33He's a man of his word.
01:17:35He's a man of his word.
01:17:37He's a man of his word.
01:17:40He's a man of his word.
01:17:42He's a man of his word.
01:17:44He's a man of his word.
01:17:46He's a man of his word.
01:17:48He's a man of his word.
01:17:50He's a man of his word.
01:17:52He's a man of his word.
01:17:54He's a man of his word.
01:17:56He's a man of his word.
01:17:58He's a man of his word.
01:18:00He's a man of his word.
01:18:02He's a man of his word.
01:18:04He's a man of his word.
01:18:06He's a man of his word.
01:18:08My lord is often thus
01:18:10and hath been from his youth.
01:18:12Pray you, keep seat.
01:18:22The fit is momentary.
01:18:24Upon a thought, he will again be well.
01:18:26If much you note him, you will offend him and extend his passion.
01:18:28Are you a man?
01:18:30I am a bold one, but I look on that
01:18:32which I'd appall the devil.
01:18:34This is a very painting of your fear.
01:18:37The air-drawn dagger which you said
01:18:39led you to Duncan.
01:18:41O, these flaws and starts!
01:18:43Imposters to true fear
01:18:45would well become a woman's story
01:18:47at a winter's fire authorized by her grandam.
01:18:49Shame itself!
01:18:51Why do you make such faces?
01:18:53When all's done,
01:18:55you look but on a stool!
01:18:59Behold!
01:19:01Look!
01:19:07I'll show you!
01:19:11But, Caroline, thou canst
01:19:13not
01:19:15speak to me!
01:19:17If Carmel House is in our graves,
01:19:19must send those that we bury back.
01:19:21Our monuments shall be the maws of kites.
01:19:23What kite are you messing with?
01:19:25If I stand here, I saw him!
01:19:27Fie for shame!
01:19:33The time has been that when the brains were out,
01:19:36the man would die.
01:19:38Then there an end, but now they rise again
01:19:40with twenty mortal murders from their crowns
01:19:42and push us from our stools.
01:19:46This is more strange than such a murder is.
01:19:48My worthy lord, your noble friends
01:19:50do latch you.
01:19:54I do forget.
01:20:02Do not muse at me.
01:20:04My most worthy friends,
01:20:06I have a strange infirmity which is nothing
01:20:08to those that know me.
01:20:12Come love and health to all,
01:20:14then I'll sit.
01:20:16Give me some wine.
01:20:18Filful I drink to the general joy
01:20:20of the whole table
01:20:22and to our dear friend Banquo
01:20:24whom we miss, would he were here.
01:20:28To all and him
01:20:30we thirst.
01:20:34Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
01:21:04Thy blood is cold. Thou hast no speculation in those eyes, as thou didst glare with it.
01:21:08Think of his good peers, but as a thing of custom. Tis no other. Only it spoils pleasure of the time.
01:21:14What man dare I dare approach thou like the rugged Russian bear, the armed rhinoceros, the herculean tiger?
01:21:20Take any shape of this, and my firmness will never tremble or be alive again.
01:21:26And dare me to the desert with thy sword, if trembling, I inhabit then protest with the baby of a girl.
01:21:31Hence, out of all shadows, a real muckily hat.
01:21:36Fuck.
01:22:01Being gone, I am a man, I doubt.
01:22:07Pray, you, sit still.
01:22:15You have displaced the mirth, broke the good meeting with most admired disorder.
01:22:28Can such things be, and overcome us like a summer's cloud, without a special one?
01:22:42You make me strange, even to the disposition that I owe, when now I think you can behold such sights,
01:22:49and keep the natural ruby in your cheek when mine is blanched with fear.
01:22:54What sights, my lord?
01:22:55I pray you, speak not.
01:23:03He grows worse and worse. Question enrages him.
01:23:08At once, good night.
01:23:15Stand not upon the order of your going, but go at once.
01:23:20Good night, and better health attend his majesty.
01:23:24A kind good night to all.
01:23:44It will have blood.
01:23:47They say blood will have blood.
01:23:51Stones have been known to move, and trees to speak.
01:23:57Orgiers and understood relations have by maggot pies and chuffs and rooks brought forth the secrets to man of blood.
01:24:07What is the night?
01:24:10Almost at odds with morning.
01:24:14Which is which?
01:24:15How say'st thou Macduff denies his person at our great bidding?
01:24:20Did you send to him, sir?
01:24:22I hear it by the way, but I will send.
01:24:25There's not a one of them, but in his house I keep a servant feed.
01:24:29I will tomorrow, and betimes I will to the weird sisters.
01:24:34More shall they speak, for now I am bent to know why the worst means the worst.
01:24:43For mine own good, all causes forgive why.
01:24:51I am in blood stepped in so far, that should I wade, no more returning, whereas tedious as go on.
01:25:07Strange things I have in head, which will to hand, which must be acted, ere they may be scant.
01:25:16You lack the season of all natures. Sleep.
01:25:21Can't be of sleep.
01:25:25My strange and self-abuse is the initiate fear that wants hard use.
01:25:46We are yet but young indeed.
01:25:55My former speeches have but itch your thoughts, which can interpret further.
01:26:21Only I say, things have been strangely borne.
01:26:28The gracious Duncan was pitied at Macbeth. Mary, he was dead.
01:26:32And the right valiant Banquo walked too late, whom you may say have pleased you.
01:26:36Fleance killed, for Fleance fled.
01:26:39Men must not walk too late.
01:26:43Who cannot want the thought how monstrous it was for Malcolm and for Donald Bain to kill their gracious father?
01:26:49Damned fact, how it did grieve Macbeth!
01:26:51Did he not, straight, in pious rage, the two delinquents tear, that were the slaves of drink and thralls of sleep?
01:26:58Was not that nobly done?
01:27:00Ay, and wisely too, for it would have angered any heart alive to hear the men deny it.
01:27:06So that I say, he hath borne all things well.
01:27:13And I do think, that had he Duncan's sons under his key, as, and please, heavenly shall not,
01:27:19they should find out what were to kill a father.
01:27:22So should Fleance.
01:27:25But peace fall from broad words, and because he failed his presence at the tyrant's feast,
01:27:30I hear Macduff lives in disgrace.
01:27:34Sir, can you tell where he bestows himself?
01:27:39The noble Malcolm lives in the English court, and is received of the most pious Edward.
01:27:45Dither Macduff is gone, to pray the Holy King to lend his aid, that by his help,
01:27:49we may again bring to our tables meat, sleep to our nights, free from our feasts and banquets bloody knives,
01:27:57do faithful homage, and receive free honours, all which we pine for now.
01:28:03And this report has so exasperate the king, that he prepares for some attempt of war.
01:28:10Sent he to Macduff?
01:28:11He did, and with an absolute sir-not-I, the cloudy messenger turns me his back, and hums as who should say,
01:28:18You rue the time that clogs me with this answer.
01:28:21And that might well advise him to a caution, to hold what distance his wisdom can provide.
01:28:26Some holy angel fly to the court of England, and unfold his message ere he come,
01:28:30that a swift blessing may soon return to this our suffering country, under a hand accursed.
01:28:40I'll send my prayers with him.
