"hope"
Metaphor
Act 1,
Scene 7
Lines 35a-38
Macbeth
Lady Macbeth
Lady Macbeth continues with another clothing metaphor, describing Macbeth as having dressed himself in hope. Then she equates Macbeth with hope personified: was hope (Macbeth) drunk earlier when it was so bold, and now has awoken green and pale with a hangover and become fearful?
