The apostrophe in this soliloquy is the dagger on lines 1 - 2 “Is this a dagger which I see before me, the handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.” This apostrophe changes as the soliloquy goes on, as we see that this dagger has blood all over it, which is foreshadowing Macbeth’s resolve as well as the likely death of the King.

The use of apostrophe within the soliloquy is the manifestation of a dagger with blood on it even though there was nothing as such within his current realm. It is used to show Macbeth’s internal conflict and his final thoughts before deciding to kill Duncan.

Thou Marshall’s’t me the way that I was going; and such an instrument I was to use”(act 2 scene 1 line 42-43) it is used in the text to show how Macbeths inner thoughts have led him to committing to his plan and no longer having any doubts as he began hallucinating and seeing the dagger that he plans to sue for the murder

An example of a apostrophe is at the start where Macbeth is “holding” and “talking” to an imaginary knife. This is used to show how Macbeth’s ambition is very close to getting to him but a small portion of his morality is still questioning if it’s really worth it or not.

An example of an apostrophe that could be seen in 2.1 is in lines 1-2 where it states Is this the dagger which i see before me l, the handle toward my hand? come, let me clutch thee." These lines explain Macbeths internal conscious which makes him hallucinate because all he has on his mind is his constant murder and taking over as king for macbeth.

In Macbeths soliloquy in Act 2 scene 1, an example of an apostrophe is Macbeth imagining a bloody dagger. Reassuring Macbeths ability to kill Duncan cold heartedly. Macbeths vision of the dagger shows how he is hallucinating and filled with anxiety and stress. - Sergio, Tyler

The usage of an apostraphe helps the audience understand Macbeth's current state of mind. This is demonstrated in lines 33-34, when Macbeth "Is this a dagger which I see before me, the handle toward my hand?" This is an example of an apostrophe, as it displays the way that Macbeth is hallucinating, as he readies himself to kill the king.

The use of apostrophe in this soliloquy is the dagger on lines, "Is this a dagger which I see before me, the handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee." (Act 2.1 lines 1-2). The apostrophe changes throughout Act 2.1, because of the blood seen all over the dagger, which is showing Macbeth will most likely kill Duncan with the dagger. -leon
