2 QUESTION #1 Q.) What is Hecate’s plan for Macbeth and what does this reveal, if anything, about how the play will end? A.) Hecate's plan for Macbeth is to summon visions and spirits whose messages will fill him with a false sense of security and “draw him on to his confusion”. This reveals that there might be a chance that Macbeth will finally confess to what he has done.

3 QUESTION #2 Q.) Cite text evidence: in lines 9-23, cite lines that reveal Macbeth's change and tone regarding the events surrounding Banquo’s murder. A.) In lines Hecate says “And which is worse, all you have done hath been but for a wayward son, spiteful and wrathful, who as others do, loves for his own ends, not for you.” The witches have told Macbeth prophecies about his future when all he does is behave like a angry and hateful brat who does not care about them.
