In William Shakespeare's play "Macbeth," the character Bellona's bridegroom is a metaphor used to describe Macbeth after he has become a fierce warrior on the battlefield.

The play Macbeth deals with a number of issues which modern audiences can relate to, especially the corrosive mental effect of guilt and the fear which it causes. This issue also can be found in Edgar Allen Poe's "The Telltale Heart" or Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment. The issue of whether or not we are masters of our fate is also one which people think about. Since we do not actually have the original play Shakespeare wrote (the only published version was revised and adapted by someone else to add musical numbers) essentially all performances of this play are adaptations.

This extremely short scene (only ten lines long) starts with Malcolm saying "Your leafy screens throw down" which means they don't need camouflage any more. He then tells Old Siward to "Lead our first battle" which means that they are now near enough to Macbeth's forces (holed up, as we know, in the castle of Dunsinane) to give them battle. In other words, they are on a plain near the castle. Is Macduff joining Siward in the assault on the castle? Apparently not. Malcolm says "Worthy Macduff and we shall take upon's what else remains to do, according to our order." Well, that's pretty vague. Macduff, as we know, does join the assault on the castle. Malcolm does not. He must have interpreted "what else remains to do" as doing the dishes or something.

Lady Macbeth tells the guests that Macbeth has had similar "fits" since his youth, suggesting it is nothing out of the ordinary for him. She urges them to ignore his behavior and carry on with the feast as planned.
