Image and Irony are some examples of figurative devices on Macbeth, a playwright by William Shakespeare. In this line by a lady in Macbeth for example says: 'The raven himself is hoarse, the croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan' in which the word raven suggests a sensation in fixing the hones of those people who had been enforced and Duncan is going to his fate.

One example of sarcasm in Macbeth is when Lady Macbeth responds to Macbeth's hesitation to murder Duncan by saying, "Infirm of purpose!/ Give me the daggers. The sleeping and the dead/Are but as pictures" (Act 2, Scene 2). This sarcastic remark implies that she sees no difference between killing a sleeping man and looking at a painting.
