Lady Macbeth (Act 1; Scene V) : Glamis thou art, and Cawdor; and shalt be What thou art promised: yet do I fear thy nature; It is too full o' the milk of human kindness To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great; Art not without ambition, but without The illness should attend it: what thou wouldst highly, That wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false, And yet wouldst wrongly win: thou'ldst have, great Glamis, That which cries 'Thus thou must do, if thou have it; And that which rather thou dost fear to do Than wishest should be undone.' Hie thee hither, That I may pour my spirits in thine ear; And chastise with the valour of my tongue All that impedes thee from the golden round, Which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem To have thee crown'd withal.

    What does Lady Macbeth believe about her husband's character, according to

    this speech?

    A. He is too superstitious and will actually believe the witches'

    prophecies.

    B. He will not be strong enough to do what needs to be done to

    become king

    C. He will become hungry for more power and try to kill the king.

    D. He is angry about the prophecy and will try to ensure that it doesn't

    come true.

    Answer:

    B. He will not be strong enough to do what needs to be done to become king.

    Explanation:

    Lady Macbeth believes that her husband is too good, to kind to commit a crime. In fact, Lady Macbeth says: "Yet do I fear thy nature; it is too full o'the milk of human kindness to catch the nearest way" = This means, "I am afraid of your nature, because you are too kind to try to do something wrong, or to find a shortcut".

    Then she begs that she may be strong enough to convince Macbeth to kill the king.
