Detailed explanation-1: -Shakespeare also presents Lady Macbeth in this scene to be ambitious and violent when she says “while it was smiling in my face, have plucked my nipple from his boneless gums and dash’d the brains out.” This shows that she would rather kill her baby than not go through with the plan.
Detailed explanation-2: -Throughout her speech, Lady Macbeth reveals her lust for power and desire to kill Duncan to become queen. Although Lady Macbeth’s character is recently introduced into the play, she reveals her true self as a sadistic and covetous person which foreshadows the murder of King Duncan and Macbeth’s prophesied future.
