- (III.IV.123-124)

- In this scene Macbeths words create dramatic irony because of his inner thoughts about his ambitions prior to meeting up with the king. He shows his loyalty by ignoring the witches prophecy and focusing on the king.
- (IV.I.55-60)
- Though bladed corn be lodged and trees blown down; Though castles topple on their warders' heads; Though palaces and pyramids do slope...Even till destruction sicken, answer me
- Here Shakespeare uses personification when Macbeth talks about the earth. He wishes the earth to silence his actions and so that he isn't reminded of what he's doing. He knows he's too loyal to Duncan and the guilt would make him step down from killing him.
- (V.I.60-62)
- Wash your hands put on your nightgown; look no so pale! I tell you yet again, Banquo's buried.He cannot come out on's grave.
- In this scene personification is used to describe how Macbeth is suspicious of his surroundings, he claims that his secret will be let out by anyone or anything. His regret causes him to become more paranoid as the story goes on.
- (V.VIII.27-34)
- Yet I will try the last. Before my body I throw my warlike shield.
- Macbeth uses repetition to emphasize his need to find more about the prophecy. He explains that he doesn't care what happens, he'll continue to demand an answer to his questions. Now that he is king he is determined to keep his position and will not regret doing whatever it takes to stop anyone who threatens him. At this point in the story he no longer feels remorse for his actions.

- Lady Macbeths words create dramatic irony because she is confessing to the murder in her sleep and while the audience is aware of it, the other characters are not and are left confused. In this scene lady Macbeths feelings contradict with what she though she was capable of at the start, she is no longer 'unfazed' and is instead feeling the regret that Macbeth no longer feels.
- Shakespeare uses a metaphor to compare Macbeths determination to a shield that will not fall. Macbeth no longer shows loyalty to who is supposed to be the true king of scotland- Malcolm -nor is he guilty of his wrongdoings, he is willing to stand strong until the very end in hopes of keeping the crown.
