Upon
my head they placed a fruitless crown,
And put a barren sceptre in my gripe,
Thence to be wrench'd with an unlineal hand,
No son of mine succeeding. Macbeth, 3. 1
First
Murderer: We are men, my liege.
Macbeth: Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men,
As hounds and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs,
Shoughs, water-rugs, and demi-wolves are clipt
All by the name of dogs. Macbeth, 3. 1.
Leave
no rubs nor botches in the work. Macbeth, 3. 1
Lady
Macbeth: Things without all remedy
Should be without regard; what's done is done.
Macbeth: We have scotched the snake, not killed it;
She'll close and be herself, while our poor malice
Remains in danger of her former tooth. Macbeth, 3. 2

is in his grave;
After life's fitful fever he sleeps well:
Treason has done his worst; nor steel, nor poison,
Malice domestic, foreign levy, nothing,
Can touch him further. Macbeth, 3. 2
Ere
the bat hath flown
His cloistered flight, ere, to black Hecate's summons
The shard-borne beetle with his drowsy hums
Hath rung night's yawning peal, there shall be done
A deed of dreadful note. Macbeth,

Come,
seeling night,
Scarf up the tender eye of pitiful day,
And with thy bloody and invisible hand
Cancel and tear to pieces that great bond
Which keeps me pale! Light thickens, and the crow
Makes wing to the rooky wood;
Good things of day begin to droop and drowse,
Whiles night's black agents to their preys do rouse. Macbeth, 3. 2.

Now spurs the lated traveller apace
To gain the timely inn. Macbeth, 3. 3
