DUNCAN
Where’s
the thane of Cawdor?
We coursed him at the heels and had a purpose
To be his purveyor; but he rides well,
And his great love, sharp as his spur, hath holp him
To his home before us. Fair and noble hostess,
We are your guest tonight.
|
DUNCAN
Where is Macbeth, the thane of Cawdor? We followed closely after
him. I hoped to arrive here before him, but he rides swiftly. And
his great love, which is as sharp as his spur, helped him beat us
here. Fair and noble hostess, we are your guests tonight.

LADY MACBETH
Your
servants ever
Have theirs, themselves, and what is theirs in compt,
To make their audit at your highness' pleasure,
Still to return your own.
|
LADY MACBETH
We are your servants, your highness, and as always our house and
everything in it is at your disposal, for after all, we keep it in
your trust and we’re glad to give you back what’s
yours.

DUNCAN
Give
me your hand.
Conduct me to mine host. We love him highly
And shall continue our graces towards him.
By your leave, hostess.
|
DUNCAN
Give me your hand. Bring me to my host, Macbeth. I love him
dearly, and I shall continue to favor him. Whenever you’re
ready, hostess.
