In Act 3 Scene 2 Macbeth uses a number of powerful images to describe situations and feelings. Match the images below to their meanings.

The first sounds of the night-time

Let it get dark, so the sun’s rays are blocked and disappear

I’m torn apart by my thoughts

We have wounded our enemies, but haven’t defeated them. If we’re not careful, they’ll recover and come back to attack us.

Following a difficult, painful life death now brings him peace

Let the world shatter into pieces

We’ll have to pretend to be pleasant and praise people, and mask what we’re really feeling.
