Is this worth Duncan's life? |
And now I'm
Queen. Was it worth it? The murder of the king will haunt me for the rest of my
days, but what is done, is done. I will not think about it any longer. I should
be rejoicing. I am Queen as I wanted and I have managed to do it by convincing
my husband to do the dirty work, but I am afraid that it has stained him. I am
afraid that he is no longer the man that I married. He now speaks of killing
Banquo and Fleance without me saying a word. I no longer have the power to pull
him back from the edge that I threw him over. He now continues to murder when
there is practically no need. We have the throne; we should be rejoicing.
Instead Macbeth goes to murder yet again. I fear I will not be able to stop
him. I fear I have no more control over him. I fear we will be thrown off this
throne before we have even gotten used to the luxuries it brings us.
