Macbeth Storyboard 4.3.160-280
Storyboard Text
- This tyrant Was once thought honest. You have loved him well. You may deserve of him through me, and wisdom To offer up a weak, poor, innocent lamb T’ appease an angry god.
- I am not treacherous.
- Be not offended. I speak not as in absolute fear of you. I think our country sinks beneath the yoke. There would be hands uplifted in my right. But, When I shall tread upon the tyrant’s head, yet my poor country Shall have more vices than it had before, More suffer, and more sundry ways than ever, By him that shall succeed.
- What should he be?
- It is myself I mean, in whom I know All the particulars of vice so grafted That, when they shall be opened, black Macbeth Will seem as pure as snow, and the poor state Esteem him as a lamb, being compared With my confineless harms.
- Not in the legions Of horrid hell can come a devil more damned In evils to top Macbeth.
- Malcom says that Macbeth, a man everyone once thought honorable, has become a tyrant. He thinks that Macduff is trying to win Macbeth's approval by offering Malcolm to him like a sacrifice to a god.
- Malcolm acknowledges that the country is deteriorating because of Macbeth, and many people would support Malcom if he tried to claim the throne. But, even if Macbeth was killed, the country would suffer more under the rule of the new king.
- Malcolm says that if all of his many flaws were revealed to the public, Macbeth would seem pure in comparison. Macduff replies that even so, he would still be a better king than Macbeth
