“Bloody instructions” in line 9 directs to the fundamental mood.
These three words bring up a gruesome picture to a mind, and
many people do not think of it as happy words that bring about
happy images.
Words such as those make the readers mind feel as if they were
right there with the speaker.
Macbeth seems overwhelmed with fear during this soliloquy and
acts extremely worried and filled with doubt about his plan. “Our
fears in Banquo stick deep” (3.1.51-52).
In Shakespeare’s passage in Macbeth, Shakespeare creates a
powerful tone with scary, smart, soothing diction.
This quote shows he fears what he intends to do.
This is why the situation has become ironic because Macbeth has
become the person plotting against Duncan.
As Macbeth is reluctantly moving towards Duncan to murder him,
words related to the senses that connect with the brain are repeated
multiple times in order to depict uncertainty during the first part of
the soliloquy.
For instance in he talks about how Duncan should be killed but
then turns around and says that it would be wrong because they are
kinsmen, so the reader immediately gets thrown a curve ball and
has to keep reading to find out who will happen.
He uses words such as “fear”, “fears”, and “feared” to show
Macbeth’s paranoia at the fact that Banquo’s descendents will
become kings of Scotland.
Imagery and diction gives off an anxious tone because the passage
flowed from one point to another.
This delivery, along with imagery and other touches, act as the
emphasis for the gloomy tone.
Then starts in with how his motion changes.
;therefore by using the same technique to create the tone as he uses
in the actual tone he tries to create, the reader can clearly pick out
the tone of this passage.
In one of Shakespeare most famous plays Macbeth Shakespeare
uses tone to its extreme in the main characters soliloquies.
His choice of which was dark imagery, strong diction, and
immediate subject changes.
He also says in his anger “for Banquo’s issue have I filed my
mind” he is still blaming Banquo and not himself for what he has
done, but he admits insane his “filed…mind.”
Macbeth contemplates killing the king; you can observe his
struggle through the powerful but conflicting words he uses. He
uses words like “surcease” and “bloody” to illustrate his thoughts
on killing the king…
In this soliloquy Macbeth debates whether to kill Duncan in the
soliloquy there is an underlying tone of fear and anxiety as
Macbeth decided what to do about Duncan.
In my passage in Macbeth, Macbeth emits a tone of fear in the face
of Banquo. “There is none but he (Banquo) whose being I fear.”
In Macbeths soliloquy, he shows us what he thinks about the
situation with Banquo, and by doing so he shows us his very
unstable conscious.
Antithesis such as “angels” and “damnation” contrast the evil deed
Macbeth committed or the just choice he should have picked.
First he presents a questionable and dark tone, then he switches to
an obedient, understanding tone, and finally he uses a sneaky,
nature-focused tone.
