Read the excerpt from act 1, scene 7 of The Tragedy of Macbeth.Lady Macbeth. Was the hope drunk,Wherein you dress’d yourself? hath it slept since,And wakes it now, to look so green and paleAt what it did so freely? From this timeSuch I account thy love. Art thou afeardTo be the same in thine own act and valourAs thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have thatWhich thou esteem’st the ornament of life,And live a coward in thine own esteem,Letting ‘I dare not’ wait upon ‘I would,’Like the poor cat i’ the adage? Macbeth. Prithee, peace.I dare do all that may become a man;Who dares do more is none.
