According to the Shakespearean play, Macbeth [d. August 15, 1057] and his wife planned to become king and queen in a bloodied way. They took advantage of King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] coming into their home to kill him. With their sovereign dead, they expected to be able to claim the throne as theirs. Macbeth therefore let his wife know that they'd be crowned at Scone by telling her, 'I have done the deed' [Act 2 Scene 2 Line 14].
