Macbeth Diary Entries

We are here at Forres after Macbeth has been crowned King of Scotland. Though it is a joyous occasion, I am considering the strange way in which the witches' prophecies had came true- though i suspect Macbeth has ''play'dst most foully for 't''. I am yet again tempted by the other prophesy that relates to myself of ''Lesser than Macbeth,and greater.Thou shalt get kings, though thou be none''and I myself find this a tempting prospectof treachery.

At first sight, the three creatures greeted Macbeth Thane of Glamis.They then started chanting prophesis that concerned Macbeth and me.The first witch chanted,"All hail,Macbeth! Hail to thee,Thane of Glamis" followed by the next "All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee,Thane of Cawdor" and the last of which chanted "All hail, Macbeth ,that shalt be king hereafter!" "Hail" they chanted three times together and continued prophesising."Lesser then Macbeth, and greater."the first witch chanted.Continued the second "Not so happy, yet much happier." "Thou shalt get kings ,though thou be none So all hail, Macbeth and Banquo." Chanted the last of witch. I was overwhelmed by suspision when i heard those prophesies whilst Macbeth was, I should say rather engrosed and
