The moon is down. I have not heard the clock.
Give me my sword.-Who's there?
A friend.
tWhat, sir, not yet at rest? This diamond he greets your wife withal, By the name of most kind hostess, and shut-up.
Being unprepared, Our will became the servant to defect, Which else should free have wrought.
Fleance and Banquo discuss the late night. Banquo says he wishes he could stay awake because his dreams have been filled with curses.
At your kind'st leisure.
If you would grant the time.
If you shall cleave to my consent, when 'tis, It shall make honor for you.
Macbeth goes to the room
Go bid thy mistress, when my drink is ready, She strike upon the bell. Go thee to bed.
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.
When Macbeth comes in, Banquo is shocked to see him. Banquo receives a jewel from Macbeth.
I go, and its done. The bell invites me. Hear it not, Duncan, for it is a knell that summons thee to heaven or to hell.
Banquo continues by stating that he had a strange dream involving the three witches. Banquo and Macbeth decide to talk about the witches' prophecies later.
Banquo goes on to say that he had an odd dream about the three witches. Later, Banquo and Macbeth agree to discuss the witches' prophecies.
As the butler departs, Macbeth notices a hovering dagger with the handle pointed in his direction. He tries to grab it but is unsuccessful. He starts to believe that his preoccupied mind is tricking him.
