Detailed explanation-1: -Lady Macbeth reads her husband’s letter about his meeting the witches. She fears that Macbeth lacks the ruthlessness he needs to kill Duncan and fulfill the witches’ second prophecy. When she learns that Duncan is coming to visit, she calls upon supernatural agents to fill her with cruelty.
Detailed explanation-2: -Shakespeare uses the symbol of Hallicination to present the theme of Guilt in Act 5, scene 1. Lady Macbeth is hallucinating a “spot” of blood on her hands, Duncan’s blood, and prehaps even the blood of the other characters killed as a result of Macbeth’s killing spree, like Banquo.
Detailed explanation-3: -Lady Macbeth’s behavior is ironic because she is worried that she will be found out; she worries that others will see the “blood on her hands". In her worry, she is actively revealing her guilt to the onlookers.
Detailed explanation-4: -What does Macbeth think will happen to his enemies while he is in his castle? They will starve and suffer with ague. Why is Macbeth afraid when the army reaches the castle when he has been so confident until then? The witches warnings are coming true.
