Ban. New honours come upon him,
Like our strange garments, cleave not to their mould 145
But with the aid of use.[3794]
Macb. [Aside] Come what come may,[3795]
Time and the hour runs through the roughest day.
Ban. Worthy Macbeth, we stay upon your leisure.
Macb. Give me your favour: my dull brain was wrought[3796]
With things forgotten. Kind gentlemen, your pains[3796][3797] 150
Are register'd where every day I turn[3796]
The leaf to read them. Let us toward the king.[3796]
Think upon what hath chanced, and at more time,[3796][3798]
The interim having weigh'd it, let us speak[3799]
Our free hearts each to other.
Ban. Very gladly. 155
Macb. Till then, enough. Come, friends.[3800] [Exeunt.
Scene IV. Forres. The palace.[3801]
Flourish. Enter Duncan, Malcolm, Donalbain, Lennox, and Attendants.[3802]
Dun. Is execution done on Cawdor? Are not[3803]
Those in commission yet return'd?
Mal. My liege,[3804]
They are not yet come back. But I have spoke[3804]
With one that saw him die, who did report[3804]
That very frankly he confess'd his treasons,[3804] 5
Implored your highness' pardon and set forth[3804]
A deep repentance: nothing in his life[3804]
Became him like the leaving it; he died[3804]
As one that had been studied in his death,
To throw away the dearest thing he owed[3805] 10
As 'twere a careless trifle.
