Detailed explanation-1: -"No boasting like a fool, this deed I’ll do before this purpose cool” is one of Macbeth’s last lines in this passage. What does this line mean? Instead of boasting, I will do the deed before I lose my determination.
Detailed explanation-2: -Macbeth, suddenly fearful now that the prophecy has turned against him, refuses to fight him. But Macduff calls Macbeth a coward and says that Macbeth will be mocked across Scotland if he surrenders. Despite certain death, Macbeth attacks. Macduff kills him.
Detailed explanation-3: -If thou beest slain, and with no stroke of mine, My wife and children’s ghosts will haunt me still.
Detailed explanation-4: -Interestingly, Macbeth’s first line in the play is “So foul and fair a day I have not seen” (1.3.36). This line echoes the witches’ words and establishes a connection between them and Macbeth. It also suggests that Macbeth is the focus of the drama’s moral confusion.
Detailed explanation-5: -Act 5, Scene 7 Macbeth kills Young Siward, the son of one of the English commanders. Macduff searches frantically for Macbeth, vowing that he and he alone should kill the king. Finally, Siward tells Malcolm that they’ve overtaken Dunsinane castle, and victory is near.
