Who Is Macduff's Evidence In Macbeth
Analysis:
Macbeth’s opening lines seem to suggest that he knows that he has no hope of success now: “Why should I play the Roman fool and die On mine own sword? Whiles I see lives, the gashes Do better upon them. (V, vii, 31–33)”. He explains that he will not commit suicide because while any of his enemies are still alive, his sword is better used to attack them.
Macduff arrives and Macbeth admits that Macduff is the only man that he fears.
Nonetheless, he tells Macduff that there is no point fighting because Macduff will not be able to harm him, citing the witches’ prophecy as his evidence.
Macduff dramatically reveals that he was not born of a woman and finally the audience can make sense of everything! “untimely ripped” from his mother’s
