How does Banquo feel about the witches’ predictions?
How does Macbeth feel? Who is the topic of conversation at the
start of scene 4? How might Duncan’s words to Macbeth,
as Macbeth enters, seem ironic? How does Macbeth feel now that
Malcolm has been named Price of Cumberland?
Do we have any clues about how he will behave in the future?

Questions for you
Why does Shakespeare show the witches at work at this point in the play?
How does each apparition relate to specific elements that have occurred so far?
Apparition= Why do you think Macduff fled Scotland
without telling his wife? Why is the child’s murder on stage?
