Lady Macbeth [b. c. 1015] rubbed her hands together while she sleepwalked. She appeared to be trying to clean them of something. At the same time, she talked about getting out drops of blood. She also spoke of the murders of King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040], Banquo, and Lady Macduff. It was ironic that she behaved in such a fashion. In Act 2 Scene 2, she told her anguished husband that cleansing himself of the King's murder was as easy as washing his hands. She also said that thinking about the murder would drive him insane. In Act 5 Scene 1, Lady Macbeth learned that ridding herself of guilt wasn't as easy as washing her hands. Neither was it so easy to stop thinking of heinous acts. She couldn't stop her thoughts. Washing her hands didn't wash away her guilt. So she took her own advice and lost first her mind and then her life.
