Things have been strangely born; the gracious Duncan

Was pitied of Macbeth; marry, he was dead;

And the right valiant Banquo walked too late,

Whom you may say, if it please you, Fleance killed,

For Fleance fled. Men must not walk too late.

Who cannot want the thought, how monstrous

It was for Malcolm and for Donalbain,

To kill their gracious father? damned fact!

How it did grieve Macbeth! did he not straight,

In pious rage, the two delinquents tear,
