Detailed explanation-1: -After Macbeth becomes a murderous tyrant, she is driven to madness by guilt over their crimes, and commits suicide offstage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lady Macbeth kills herself because she cannot cope with her guilt over King Duncan’s murder. When the play begins, she is more than willing to kill the king in order to advance her husband’s social position.
Detailed explanation-3: -Oh light! Please take me! I deserve to die! Now take me light!
Detailed explanation-4: -In this case the news comes in Act 5 Scene 5, when Macbeth hears a scream and sends Seyton to investigate. Seyton returns and says, “The queen, my lord, is dead.” Took off her life; Malcolm here appears to be confirming a rumor that Lady Macbeth killed herself.
Detailed explanation-5: -Lady Macbeth ends with Katherine, deserted by household staff, resuming her position on the settee where she previously sat in boredom. In an interview, Alice Birch describes this change to the story’s denouement as a feminist act because its open ending offers Katherine an opportunity to have another life.
