Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -110 And, for an earnest of a greater honor, He bade me, from him, call thee thane of Cawdor: In which addition, hail, most worthy thane, For it is thine. But-to give you a hint of the honors coming your way-the king told me to call you the Thane of Cawdor. Hail, most worthy thane, for that title is now yours.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hail to thee, Thane of Cawdor! All hail, Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter! Macbeth tells them to speak, and they hail Macbeth first as Thane of Glamis, then Thane of Cawdor, and finally as future King. Your favors nor your hate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hail to thee, Thane of Glamis! All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee, Thane of Cawdor! All hail, Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter!

Detailed explanation-4: -If ill, Why hath it given me earnest of success, Commencing in a truth? I am Thane of Cawdor. If good, why do I yield to that suggestion, Whose horrid image doth unfix my hair And make my seated heart knock at my ribs Against the use of nature? Present fears Are less than horrible imaginings.

Detailed explanation-5: -Macbeth. [Aside] First Glamis, and now the Thane of Cawdor! But the greatest title they promised me is still in the future. [To Ross and Angus] Thank you for your trouble.
