Macbeth feels that he is " cabin'd, cribb'd, confin'd, bound in To saucy doubts and fears." He tells us that he's feels like it's being confined and pushed into an area full of doubts and fears of Fleance becoming king and continuing the prophecy. The alliteration using the verbs "cabin'd, cribb'd, confin'd" all start with the letter C, which are plosives and that makes Macbeth sound harsh and messy, and that may reflect the way he thinks; he's mind is full of thoughts going in and out. To a Jacobean audience, they could have look down at Macbeth for being a coward even though he's had killed the former King, became a king and has killed many people before. To a contemporary audience like me, it tells us that Macbeth is filled with anxiety and this could fuel his insanity even more.]]> 2018-10-18 05:03:27 UTC https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186514 https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186580 "Are you a man?" - Lady Macbeth questioning Macbeth's masculinity

The sound of “k” was repeated as well, giving the quote a harsh and angry feel, mirroring Macbeth’s emotions and attitude. This is a usage of plosive words. ]]> 2018-10-18 05:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186624 https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186664 Blood is a symbol of guilt and violence in this play, the repetition in this phrase definitely draws attention to the word. The noun could also be referring to Banquo, even if his blood has shed (he died) his son is still out there, his bloodline will continue to grow. Macbeth is torn between his loyalty to his best friend and his ambition. Violence breeds violence, and Macbeth is the source of alot of it, he kills people who he sees as a threat to himself. "They" could be referring to the witches, or maybe old sayings. The term "blood will have blood" could also be referring to revenge.]]> 2018-10-18 05:04:34 UTC https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186664 https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186672 “But now I am cabin’d, cribb’d, confin’d, bound in to saucy doubts and fears.”
Macbeth tells us about how anxious he feels that Fleance has escaped by using the adjectives “cabin’d”, “cribb’d” and “confined implies that Macbeth feels as if he is trappped in a corner and his “doubts and fears” are closing in on him.

Stepp'd in so far that should I wade no more,

The adjective 'blood' symbolises evil, darkness and sin. Macbeth is saying that by repenting is as hard as going forward, this shows that Macbeth has no hope for life anymore and only thinking of killing people to keep himself from getting exposed of his crime. This shows that Macbeth has no hope for himself.]]> 2018-10-18 05:04:44 UTC https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186682 https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186697 “I am in blood 
Stepp’d in so far that should I wade no more,

In this scene, we can see Macbeth starting to feel remorse and guilt towards the sins that he has committed. For example, when he was “in blood”, it meant that he was feeling guilty. The noun “blood”

This quotation shows repetition in the noun “blood”. The noun “blood”represents guilt therefore Macbeth may be hinting to his state of distress and guilt. The phrase “blood will have blood” could suggest that Macbeth is planning on killing Banquo’s son as well as he is the blood of Banquo. ]]> 2018-10-18 05:05:36 UTC https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186763 https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294186768 Macbeth is being question of his masculinity.

This can also mean although the killed Banquo, his mind is in agony and cannot rest in peace because of the deeds that he’ve done.

"But now I am cabin'd, cribb'd,confin'd, bound in/ To saucy doubts and fears." Macbeth Is Speaking about how he feels to know that Banquo is dead but his main objective Fleance still lives. All the words that he uses have the same meaning an it proves that he is losing his mind. Lady Macbeth tries to calm Macbeth down with the the same method by questioning his masculinity.

He believes that he is so deep in blood, and killed so many people, that to repent and give up killing is just as difficult as killing more people. The vivid imagery used in this quote is a powerful way of expressing just how much blood Macbeth has spilled. This is also Shakespeare's way of reminding us about the many murders Macbeth committed offstage. Macbeth is. Blood in this play also symbolises guilt, yet curiously Macbeth shows no guilt after his original regicide, only killing more and more people to cover up.]]> 2018-10-18 05:09:09 UTC https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294187174 https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294187339 In Act 3 Scene 4, Shakespeare shows that Macbeth has fully accepted that he cannot turn back from his crimes. Macbeth’s says that he is ‘in blood/ Stepped in so far that should wade, no more/ Returning were as tedious as go o’er.’ The noun ‘blood’ symbolises guilt and death, therefore he is very guilty and he has committed too many crimes. He has  ‘[s]tepp’d in too far, which means that he has believed the witch, and ‘returning’ would not do anything for him as he would be immediately executed. The adjective ‘tedious’ shows that he has lost all emotion and this means that this is the point that Macbeth has become a full tyrant. A Jacobean audience would probably be mad that he does not admit to his crimes because he needs to be punished.]]> 2018-10-18 05:10:37 UTC https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294187339 https://padlet.com/emily_edwards24/qa458vy5yhoh/wish/294187353 The 4th quote
