Macbeth

[Near the palace of England's King Edward the Confessor. Enter Malcolm who is joined by Macduff who has just arrived from Scotland]

Malcolm

Let us seek out some desolate shade, and there
Weep our sad bosoms empty.

Macduff

                                                     Let us rather
Hold fast the mortal sword, and like good men
Bestride our down-fall'n birthdom. Each new morn
New widows howl, new orphans cry, new sorrows
Strike heaven on the face that it resounds
As if it felt with Scotland and yelled out
Like syllable of dolor.

Macbeth

Till seven at night. To make society
The sweeter welcome, we will keep ourself
Till supper-time alone. While then, God be with you.
[Exit all but Macbeth, and an attendant]
Sirrah, a word with you. Attend those men our pleasure?

Attendant

They are, my lord, without the palace gate.

Macbeth

Bring them before us.
[Exit Attendant. Macbeth thinks out loud]
[Re-enter Attendant, with two Murderers]
[Exit Attendant]

Ross

And Duncan's horses — a thing most strange and certain — 
Beauteous and swift, the minions of their race,
Turned wild in nature, broke their stalls, flung out,
Contending 'gainst obedience, as they would make
War with mankind.

Old Man

                                  'Tis said they ate each other.

Ross

They did so, to the amazement of mine eyes
That looked upon't. Here comes the good Macduff.
