Macbeth often uses an image of a serpent or a snake. (For background, reread the play through Act 3, scene 4 to note those references.) The lines you seek are in Act 3. scene 4: Macbeth asks Banquo's murderers,"But Banquo's safe?" First Murderer
Ay, my good lord: safe in a ditch he bides,
With twenty trenched gashes on his head;
The least a death to nature. MACBETH
Thanks for that:
There the grown serpent lies; the worm that's fled
Hath nature that in time will venom breed,
No teeth for the present.... When you tease out the meaning of the lines, notice
1. "There the grown serpent lies."
2. Untangle the grammar: "the worm that has fled has a nature that in time will breed venom...."
3. What are we to do with the comma after "breed"?

Malcolm says on the battlefield, Macbeth's army has been delibertly missing them. It seems no one wishes for Macbeth to be king, not even his own side!
It depends on what plays you wish to consider with Macbeth. Macbeth, by the way was not an Elizabethan play: it was Jacobean.
Macbeth is the name of a play written by William Shakespeare. It is rife with superstition, people consider it bad luck to say the name Macbeth aloud.
In "Macbeth," the quote, "What he hath lost, noble Macbeth hath won," is a statement made by Duncan about the treasonous last Thane of Cawdor whose title now goes to Macbeth. The Thane of Cawdor was sentenced to be executed, at which point Macbeth would assume his title.

Lady Macbeth's statement "What is done is done" is ironic because she says it to try to reassure herself and her husband after Duncan's murder, when in reality, the consequences of their actions continue to haunt them throughout the play. The statement reflects Lady Macbeth's attempts to suppress her guilt and anxiety by dismissing the gravity of their crimes, which ultimately leads to their downfall.
The character who says the line "For brave Macbeth—well he deserves that name" is the Sergeant in Act 1, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's play "Macbeth." This statement is made in recognition of Macbeth's courage and skill in battle.

Lady Macbeth is shocked by the messenger's statement because she did not anticipate the magnitude of the consequences of their actions. The news of King Duncan's murder and its aftermath signals the beginning of a downward spiral that she and Macbeth cannot control, leading to guilt and psychological torment.

MacDuff said this line.
At the banquet when Macbeth begins acting unusual due to seeing Banquo's ghost, Lady Macbeth tells the guests to leave him alone. She says that he often has fits like this, ever since he was young, and says that they should just ignore him and he'll be fine.
Lady Macbeth questions Macbeth to provoke him into taking action. She challenges his masculinity and questions his resolve in order to manipulate him into following through with their plan to kill King Duncan.
