Macbeth Act IV
This is dedicated to SuperG, in recognition of his dedication to Shakespeare. His request for Othello will have to wait until I can procure a Lando Calrissian, but I have a pretty good Desdemona already.
The three witches are making a disgusting spell. Bleuch!
“By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes!”
Yes, it’s Macbeth. He demands to see evil spirits that will tell him his future.
The first apparition is an armoured head that tells him to beware Macduff.
The second is a bloody child who tells him:
“Be bloody, bold, and resolute; laugh to scorn
The power of man, for none of woman born
Shall harm Macbeth.“
The third is a crowned child holding a tree who says:
“Macbeth shall never vanquish’d be until
Great Birnam wood to high Dunsinane hill
Shall come against him.”
The last apparition upsets Macbeth a tiny bit because it is Banquo showing him all his descendants.
As he is a bit shirty he decides to do another dastardly deed:
“The castle of Macduff I will surprise;
Seize upon Fife; give to the edge o’ the sword
His wife, his babes, and all unfortunate souls
That trace him in his line.”
