SCENE VI . The same . Before the Castle . Hautboys . Servants of Macbeth attending . Enter Duncan , Malcolm , Donalbain , Banquo , Lennox , Macduff , Ross , Angus and Attendants . DUNCAN . This castle hath a pleasant seat . The air Nimbly and sweetly recommends itself Unto our gentle senses . BANQUO . This guest of summer , The temple - haunting martlet , does approve , By his loved mansionry , that the heaven’s breath Smells wooingly here : no jutty , frieze , Buttress , nor coign of vantage , but this bird hath made his pendant bed and procreant cradle . Where they most breed and haunt , I have observ’d The air is delicate . Enter Lady Macbeth . DUNCAN . See , see , our honour’d hostess ! — The love that follows us sometime is our trouble , Which still we thank as love . Herein I teach you How you shall bid God ’ ild us for your pains , And thank us for your trouble . LADY MACBETH . All our service , In every point twice done , and then done double , Were poor and single business to contend Against those honours deep and broad wherewith Your Majesty loads our house : for those of old , And the late dignities heap’d up to them , We rest your hermits . DUNCAN . Where’s the Thane of Cawdor ? We cours’d him at the heels , and had a purpose To be his purveyor : but he rides well ; And his great love , sharp as his spur , hath holp him To his home before us . Fair and noble hostess , We are your guest tonight . LADY MACBETH . Your servants ever Have theirs , themselves , and what is theirs , in compt , To make their audit at your Highness ’ pleasure , Still to return your own . DUNCAN . Give me your hand ; Conduct me to mine host : we love him highly , And shall continue our graces towards him . By your leave , hostess . [ Exeunt . ] SCENE VII . The same . A Lobby in the Castle . Hautboys and torches . Enter , and pass over , a Sewer and divers Servants with dishes and service . Then enter Macbeth . MACBETH . If it were done when ’ tis done , then ’ twere well It were done quickly . If th ’ assassination Could trammel up the consequence , and catch With his surcease success ; that but this blow Might be the be - all and the end - all — here , But here , upon this bank and shoal of time , We’d jump the life to come . But in these cases We still have judgement here ; that we but teach Bloody instructions , which being taught , return To plague th ’ inventor . This even - handed justice Commends th ’ ingredience of our poison’d chalice To our own lips . He’s here in double trust : First , as I am his kinsman and his subject , Strong both against the deed ; then , as his host , Who should against his murderer shut the door , Not bear the knife myself . Besides , this Duncan Hath borne his faculties so meek , hath been So clear in his great office , that his virtues Will plead like angels , trumpet - tongued , against The deep damnation of his taking - off ; And pity , like a naked new - born babe , Striding the blast , or heaven’s cherubin , hors’d Upon the sightless couriers of the air , Shall blow the horrid deed in every eye , That tears shall drown the wind . — I have no spur To prick the sides of my intent , but only Vaulting ambition , which o’erleaps itself And falls on th ’ other — Enter Lady Macbeth . How now ! what news ?
