Detailed explanation-1: -Macbeth drove his sword into the Madconwald’s stomach (near his navel), and pulled the sword upward until it reached his jaw (“chaps”)… basically cut him in half… going against gravity.
Detailed explanation-2: -A captain reports having seen Macbeth and Banquo fight bravely against the rebels and, in particular, Macbeth killed the traitorous MacDonwald. As a reward, King Duncan determines to give Macbeth the title of Thane of Cawdor and sends Ross as his messenger to deliver to news to Macbeth.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cuts off his head and places it on the battlements. What new title does Macbeth receive early in Act I?
Detailed explanation-4: -Macbeth is introduced as the brave man who led King Duncan’s forces to victory against the traitorous Thane of Cawdor, Macdonwald and The King of Norway, in a battle that could have gone either way were it not for Macbeth’s leadership. We learn that Macbeth killed Macdonwald himself in battle.
Detailed explanation-5: -MacDonwald is a traitor from the West Isles. Lady Luck was on his side, but Macbeth didn’t care. He risked his life to fight MacDonwald hand-to-hand and cut him open from his navel to his chin.
