Macduff is missing, and your noble son.[ROSS approaches SIWARD with head slightly bowed and a somber expression.]Ross. [To SIWARD.] Your son, my lord, has paid a soldier’s debt:He only lived but till he was a man;The which no sooner had his prowess confirm’dIn the unshrinking station where he fought,But like a man he died.Siward.
