Detailed explanation-1: -Enter Lady Macbeth.-Lady Macbeth waits for Macbeth to come with the news that he has killed the King. Enter Macbeth.-Macbeth announces that he has done the deed, but he is so shaken by the murder that he brings the bloody daggers with him, and Lady Macbeth takes them from him, to place them with the sleeping grooms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lady Macbeth dismisses his fears and sees that he has brought the guards’ daggers with him, rather than planting them at the scene of the crime. She tells him to return the daggers but he refuses and Lady Macbeth goes instead.
Detailed explanation-3: -Give me the daggers. I’ll do it, then. Saying that the sleeping and the dead are but as pictures suggests either that they are similarly inert, unmoving and so unthreatening or, possibly, that the dead and the sleeping look alike, that the dead could just be sleeping.
Detailed explanation-4: -Few visual moments are as strange as the scene at the beginning of act two, in which Macbeth sees a dagger floating in the air, apparently leading him to Duncan’s bedchamber.
