Enter MACBETH, BANQUO, ROSSE, and ANGUS.

O worthiest cousin!

The sin of my ingratitude even now

Was heavy on me.

Thou art so far before,
That swiftest wing of recompense is slow

To overtake thee: would thou hadst less deserv'd,
That the proportion both of thanks and payment
Might have been mine! only I have left to say,
More is thy due than more than all can pay.

[ocr errors]

Macb. The service and the loyalty I owe,
In doing it, pays itself. Your highness' part
Is to receive our duties: and our duties
Are to your throne and state, children, and servants;
Which do but what they should, by doing every thing
Safe toward your love and honour.

Dun.

Welcome hither:

I have begun to plant thee, and will labour
To make thee full of growing. - Noble Banquo,
That hast no less deserv'd, nor must be known
No less to have done so; let me infold thee,

And hold thee to my heart.

The harvest is your own.

SCENE V.

Inverness. A Room in MACBETH's Castle.

Enter Lady MACBETH, reading a letter.

Lady M. "They met me in the day of success; and I have vistains learned by the perfectest report, they have more in them than mortal knowledge. When I burned in desire to question them farther, they made themselves air, into which they vanished. Whiles I stood rapt in the wonder of it, came missives from the king, who all-hailed me, 'Thane of Cawdor;' by which title, rated before, these weird sisters saluted me, and referred me to the coming on of time, with, 'Hail, king that shalt be!' This have I thought good to deliver thee, my dearest partner of greatness, that thou mightest not lose the dues of rejoicing, by being doà ignorant of what greatness is promised thee. and farewell."

What is your tidings?

Thou 'rt mad to say it.

Atten. The king comes here to-night.

Lady M.

Is not thy master with him? who, wer't so,

Would have inform'd for preparation.

Atten. So please you, it is true: our thane is coming.
One of my fellows had the speed of him;

This night's great business into my despatch, mitrines
