A conceit is basically an extended metaphor. Most metaphors found in Macbeth, when looked at more closely are conceits. Here is an example of a conceit in Act 2.
"The innocent sleep, sleep that knits up the ravell'd sleave of care, the death of each day's life, sore labour's bath, balm of hurt minds, great natures second course, chief nourisher in life's feast." (II.ii.36-39)
it compares the concept of 'sleep' to many dissimilar things, proving it firstly, to be a metaphor, and secondly, since it compares one concept to a variety of things without there being a change to the concept, it proves to be an example of conceit.
I hope this was helpful.
