Detailed explanation-1: -Meaning: Macbeth says that he wishes he had died before Duncan because now there is “nothing worth living for since the good king has been killed".
Detailed explanation-2: -i would thou couldst!” Macbeth means he wishes that the knocker’s knocking could wake Duncan up, as though Duncan is only asleep and hasn’t just been murdered. Again, this shows Macbeth’s regret because he wishes Duncan were alive again.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is the noblemen Macduff and Lenox who have arrived to call upon the King. Macduff goes to wake Duncan and re-enters horrified, raising the alarm for his murder. The household gather and Macbeth announces that he has slain the two guards, considering them primary suspects.
Detailed explanation-4: -He asks her what will happen if they fail; she promises that as long as they are bold, they will be successful. Then she tells him her plan: while Duncan sleeps, she will give his chamberlains wine to make them drunk, and then she and Macbeth can slip in and murder Duncan.
Detailed explanation-5: -Lady Macbeth is the one who lays out the plan to get Duncan’s chamberlains drunk so she and her husband can kill Duncan in his sleep. Then, she says, they will smear blood on Duncan’s men to make them appear to be murderers.
