Detailed explanation-1: -Ross cannot convince her that her husband has acted in wisdom, and so he leaves. Lady Macduff tells her son that his father is dead, but the boy argues that if his father were dead, she would be weeping. She keeps insisting that his father is dead because he is a traitor.
Detailed explanation-2: -At Macduff’s castle, Lady Macduff accosts Ross, demanding to know why her husband has fled. She feels betrayed. Ross insists that she trust her husband’s judgment and then regretfully departs. Once he is gone, Lady Macduff tells her son that his father is dead, but the little boy perceptively argues that he is not.
Detailed explanation-3: -Macduff’s son is able to trade witticisms with his mother, and even to best her at times. He is fierce enough to deny his father to be a traitor and to insult a murderer to his face. On doing so, he is promptly murdered.
Detailed explanation-4: -Lady Macduff is a character in William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. She is married to Lord Macduff, the Thane of Fife. Her appearance in the play is brief: she and her son are introduced in Act IV Scene II, a climactic scene that ends with both of them being murdered on Macbeth’s orders.
