Macbeth’s monologue in Act 5, Scene 3 of Macbeth by Shakespeare does not evoke sympathy for him from the audience. Within this soliloquy, Macbeth talks of how “honor, love, obedience, troops of friends,” (5.3. 29) should come at the end of his life. He remorses how he does not have these happy things and instead gets unfaithful followers and people who curse him behind his back. However, this does not invoke the audience’s sympathy because he is the one to have dug his own grave through harsh, unjust rule, severe punishments, and murdering those he is suspicious of. Not only does he complain of unfaithful subjects, but he also wonders about the outcome of the battle.

This shows the disturbance of the natural world because falcons are bigger and more powerful than owls.
