Who says all hail Macbeth thou shalt be king hereafter?

The third witch


Who said the quote Despair thy charm And let the angel whom thou still hast served tell thee Macduff was from his mother's womb untimely ripped in the play Macbeth?

Macduff says this


Why the doctor was with the gentlewoman?

The doctor was assigned to observe Lady Macbeth's unusal behavior, by Macbeth. In Act 5 Scene 3 the doctor makes his report to Macbeth. Macbeth asks, "Canst thou not minister to a mind diseas'd?" and when the doctor says no, Macbeth says "Throw physic to the dogs! I'll have none of it!" The inference we can draw is that Macbeth really does care about his wife and wants her to get better. People often misunderstand Macbeth's reaction to his wife's death as meaning that he does not care for her, but this scene, occurring shortly before, proves that he does.


What does lady Macbeth often question about macbeths character?

She questions his manhood. See especially in Act 1 Scene 7. It is a sore spot with Macbeth and she knows it. "If thou durst do it, then thou wert a man"


How does lady Macbeth manipulate Macbeth's weaknesses?

This is a great question because it goes straight to the dynamic between the Macbeths. Macbeth does not have a "fatal flaw", but he does have weaknesses, the largest of which is his self-image as masculine. Lady Macbeth can get Macbeth to do just about anything by saying "If thou wert a man, then thou durst do it." It's like someone who cannot resist a dare, or the taunt that he is "chicken".

When Macbeth is killed who is the next king?

In the Shakespeare play, Macbeth is succeeded by Malcolm, son of Duncan. Macduff says to him, "Hail, king, for so thou art." The historical reality was somewhat different. The historical Macbeth was succeeded after a long and mostly peaceful reign of 17 years, by his stepson Lulach (that's Lady Macbeth's son) who was unfortunately not so successful.


Which evidence from the text best supports the idea that Lady Macbeth believes that Macbeth will not be strong enough to do what is necessary in order to become king?

Lady Macbeth thinks Macbeth will not achieve power because he will not kill the King who he shall become (says the witches first prophecies). When he eventually does, Lady Macbeth is proven wrong. So shame on herself!


When did Macbeth send for Macduff to come to court?

After the banquet where Banquo's ghost appears, he tells Lady Macbeth that he "will send" so he hasn't done it yet. The next time we see him, he is visiting the witches, and then Lennox brings word that Macduff is fled to England. Macbeth says "Time, thou anticipat'st my dread exploits." What this means is that Macduff got away before Macbeth could get to him. It would seem that Macbeth never does send for Macduff.


Is the dagger that Macbeth refers to in his soliloquy visible to the audience?

A false creation,/ Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?


Who was lady Macbeth's father?

There is no mention of her fathers name only A sleeping Duncan's resemblance to him which prevents her from killing the Scottish king herself.


What line number is the quote from MacBeth Lesser than MacBeth not so happy yet much happier Thou shalt get kings though thou be none?

Those are three lines from Act 1 Scene 3. The line numbers in Shakespeare's plays are put in afterwards by editors which means that different editions have different line numbers. Check your own edition to see what it says there (if anything).
