What is the significance of Banquo's line, There's husbandry in heaven; Their candles are all out ? -- This line uses a metaphor of careful management ( husbandry ) to describe the darkened sky, suggesting a sense of order and control in the natural world, even in the absence of light. This contrasts with the moral darkness and disorder that Macbeth is about to unleash. • How does Macbeth react to Banquo's mention of the Weird Sisters? -- Macbeth claims to not think about them, but his quick agreement to discuss the prophecy later suggests he is preoccupied with their words. • Explain the meaning of Banquo's statement: So I lose none / In seeking to augment it, but still keep / My bosom franchis'd, and allegiance clear, / I shall be counsell'd. -- Banquo is saying that he will support Macbeth's rise to power as long as he doesn't have to compromise his own honor and loyalty to the king. • Describe the dagger that Macbeth sees. Is it real? -- The dagger is not real but a hallucination. Macbeth sees it vividly, even describing the gouts of blood on its blade. • What does Macbeth's vision of the dagger reveal about his mental state? -- The dagger vision reveals Macbeth's guilt, anxiety, and growing ambition. It symbolizes the bloody path he is about to take. • How does the imagery in the lines, Now o’er the one half-world / Nature seems dead, and wicked dreams abuse / The curtain’d sleep, contribute to the atmosphere of the scene? -- The imagery of death, darkness, and troubled sleep creates a foreboding and sinister atmosphere, foreshadowing the impending murder. • To whom or what is Macbeth referring when he says, Whiles I threat, he lives ? -- Macbeth is referring to Duncan, indicating that he is still alive but under threat from Macbeth. • What is the purpose of the bell ringing at the end of the scene? -- The bell serves as a signal from Lady Macbeth, indicating that the preparations for Duncan's murder are complete. • What does Macbeth's final couplet reveal about his intentions? -- The final couplet confirms Macbeth's resolve to commit the murder, highlighting his descent into darkness and his belief in a predetermined fate. • Compare and contrast the characters of Macbeth and Banquo in this scene. -- Macbeth is ambitious, driven by his desires, and increasingly consumed by guilt and paranoia. Banquo is cautious, loyal, and concerned with maintaining his honor. Their differing responses to the witches' prophecies highlight their contrasting moral compasses. • Additional Essay Questions to Consider: • Analyze the role of the supernatural in Act II, Scene I. How does it influence the characters and events? • Explore the theme of appearance versus reality in this scene. How do the characters' words and actions differ from their true thoughts and feelings? • Discuss the significance of sleep and dreams in Act II, Scene I. How do they contribute to the play's overall themes? • Examine the relationship between Macbeth and Banquo in this scene. How has their friendship changed since the beginning of the play? • Analyze the use of imagery and language in Macbeth's soliloquy. How does Shakespeare create a sense of tension, suspense, and psychological turmoil? • Glossary of Key Terms: • Largess: Generosity, gift-giving. • Weird Sisters: The three witches. • Franchis'd: Free, unrestrained. • Allegiance: Loyalty, duty. • Sensible: Perceivable by the senses. • Palpable: Tangible, able to be touched. • Dudgeon: The handle of a dagger. • Gouts: Drops. • Hecate: The Greek
