Macbeth scene 3 what does this line mean 'if chance will have me king why chance may crown me without my stir?
The tricky part is "without my stir". "Stir" comes from "stirring", waking up, moving about, doing stuff. "Without my stir" means "without me doing anything about it", so the line means "If chance (i.e. fate) will have me [be the] king, why, fate may crown me without me doing anything about it." The witches have told Macbeth that he will be the king hereafter, but they also told him that he was the Thane of Cawdor, and that came true without Macbeth doing anything about it. Maybe all he has to do to become the king is to wait and let fate take its course.

When did the Macbeth myth end?
The Macbeth myth finally ends in Act 3 Scene 8, where he is slain by Macduff (who was born of caesarian section- "ripp'd untimely from his mother's womb"- and therefore able to kill Macbeth without disregarding the prophecy, "for none of woman born, shall harm Macbeth").

In scenes 5 to 7 list evidence that supports a reading that Macbeth is more frightened by the plan to kill Duncan than Lady Macbeth.?
Contrast Lady Macbeth's speeches in act I scene 5 starting "Glamis thou art, and Cawdor, and shalt be what thou art promised" and "Come you spirits that tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here." with Macbeth's great speech in scene 7, "If it were done when "tis done, then 'twere well it were done quickly". Mind you, that speech does not so much show that Macbeth is afraid to do the murder as he can see in the long term the risks far outweigh the potential gain. He has already said in scene 3 "If chance would have me king, then chance may crown me without my stir," so the benefit of the murder is not clear. The best evidence that he is actually afraid is in scene 3 when he says, "Why do I yield to that suggestion whose horrid image doth unfix my hair . . ."
