"Too cold breath gives." Act II Scene 1. There is something wrong with the line "words to the heat of deeds too cold breath gives." It has to be "gives" to rhyme with "lives", but the verb "gives" does not match the subject "words". You can see this when you rearrange the line into a more familiar (but less rhythmically pleasing) syntax: "Words gives too cold breath to the heat of deeds." Excuse me, Mr. S., but that is not proper English grammar: it should be either "Words give too cold breath" or a different subject, like "Talk gives too cold breath to the heat of deeds." Anyway, Macbeth means "Why am I blithering on when I've got work to do?"
