He knows thy thought: Hear his speech, but say thou nought.

Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth! beware Macduff; Beware the thane of Fife. Dismiss me. Enough. Descends.

Whate’er thou art, for thy good caution, thanks; Thou hast harp’d my fear aright: but one word more⁠—

He will not be commanded: here’s another, More potent than the first.

Be bloody, bold, and resolute; laugh to scorn The power of man, for none of woman born Shall harm Macbeth. Descends.

Then live, Macduff: what need I fear of thee? But yet I’ll make assurance double sure, And take a bond of fate: thou shalt not live; That I may tell pale-hearted fear it lies, And sleep in spite of thunder.
