Question

Enter ROSS and ANGUS
ROSS
The king hath happily received, Macbeth,
The news of thy success; and when he reads
Thy personal venture in the rebels' fight,
His wonders and his praises do contend
Which should be thine or his: silenced with that,
In viewing o'er the rest o' the selfsame day,
He finds thee in the stout Norweyan ranks,
Nothing afeard of what thyself didst make,
Strange images of death. As thick as hail
Came post with post; and every one did bear
Thy praises in his kingdom's great defence,
And pour'd them down before him.
ANGUS
We are sent
To give thee from our royal master thanks;
Only to herald thee into his sight,
Not pay thee.

SCENE V. Inverness. Macbeth's castle.

Enter LADY MACBETH, reading a letter

LADY MACBETH

'They met me in the day of success: and I have
learned by the perfectest report, they have more in
them than mortal knowledge. When I burned in desire
to question them further, they made themselves air,
into which they vanished. Whiles I stood rapt in
the wonder of it, came missives from the king, who
all-hailed me 'Thane of Cawdor;' by which title,
before, these weird sisters saluted me, and referred
me to the coming on of time, with 'Hail, king that
shalt be!' This have I thought good to deliver
thee, my dearest partner of greatness, that thou
mightst not lose the dues of rejoicing, by being
ignorant of what greatness is promised thee. Lay it
to thy heart, and farewell.'
Glamis thou art, and Cawdor; and shalt be
What thou art promised: yet do I fear thy nature;
It is too full o' the milk of human kindness
To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great;
Art not without ambition, but without
The illness should attend it: what thou wouldst highly,
That wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false,
And yet wouldst wrongly win: thou'ldst have, great Glamis,
That which cries 'Thus thou must do, if thou have it;
And that which rather thou dost fear to do
Than wishest should be undone.' Hie thee hither,
That I may pour my spirits in thine ear;
And chastise with the valour of my tongue
All that impedes thee from the golden round,
Which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem
To have thee crown'd withal.

sentences:
You may begin with: Orlando: Stop and eat no more !]
The Duck Senior and his followers were sitting down to a meal one day when Orlando
rushed out from among the trees, his sword in his hand. 'Stop and eat no more !' he
cried.
The Duke and his friends asked him what he wanted. 'Food', said Orlando. 'I am almost dying of hunger.'
They asked him to sit down and eat, but he would not do so. He told them that his old
servant was in the wood, dying of hunger,. 'I will not eat a bite until he has been fed,'
Orlando said.
So the good Duke and his followers helped him to bring Adam to their hiding-place,
and Orlando and the old man were fed and taken care of. When the Duke learned that
Orlando was a son of his old friend Sir Rowland de Boys, he welcomed him gladly to
his forest court.
Orlando lived happily with the duke and his friends, but he had not forgotten the lovely
Rosalind. She was always in his thoughts and every day he wrote poetry about her,
pinning it on the trees in the forest. 'There trees shall be my books', he said, 'so that
everyone who looks in the forest will be able to read how sweet and good Rosalind is'.
