Macbeth was a good and loyal warrior for king Duncan but after he heard the witches predictions, it changed the person inside him. This play is from one of the best writer of all time William Shakespeare. The play is “The Tragedy of Macbeth". It's a summary about how Macbeth became king in the eleventh century and after he took the throne.
I was terrified when I find out that King Duncan was dead, I was worried for the country and asked myself many question on who will become the next ruler and wonder if that person is going to be as great as King Duncan. Much to my surprise I find out that Macbeth was in line to be the next King, knowing that my worries stop because I heard from many and saw for myself that Macbeth was a great general in war and very humble in person. Today in the evening I was invited to attend Macbeth crowning banquet. Before the banquet I picked my most expensive and fine clothing to put and getting ready to attend the banquet since I know there are going to be a lot of other noblemen there. I arrived to Macbeth’s castle and before the entrance I was checked

But I don’t think I can kill Duncan after all, I know that committing this evil deed will cost us dearly, punishment will come and judgement will be cast on to us.

Although killing is illegal, Macbeth sees no harm at all to killing King Duncan because he said that his son will be next in line for king. In Act 2 Scene 1 lines 64 and 65 Macbeth states, “Hear it not, Duncan, for it is a knell that summons thee to heaven or to hell”. This showing that in his pursuit of power Macbeth will kill anyone and does not care where they end up, as long as they are dead. His ambition to be king is so high that while in this pursuit of power he will do whatever it takes to get to the top. But this comes back to haunt him when he realizes that King Duncan actually
Macbeth had another chance to change his outcome. his wife was consumed with the idea that he would become king, so much so that she pushed him to kill the current King. She said she couldn 't do it because King Duncan looked too much like her own father. Macbeth could have easily dismissed this and not listened to his mentally dwindling wife, “Come, thick night, and pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell, that my keen knife see not the wound it makes, nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark, to cry ‘hold, hold!’” He followed the instructions of his wife and killed the king.
Macbeth’s impatience for power leads to drastic actions. He murders the king in the belief that “this blow might be the be-all and end-all” (1.7.5). This assassination could never “trammel up the consequence” (1.7.2-3), as Macbeth believes, but only leads to more trouble. Although Macbeth seizes the throne, Macbeth had to betray his loyalty to the king whose “virtues will plead like angels” (1.7.18-19), and his morality has paid the price. Macbeth has now lost all sense of what honor is by using such dishonest ways to become king.
He chose to kill Duncan when speaking to his wife “I am settled, and bend up Each corporal agent to this terrible feat. Away, and mock the time with fairest show. False face must hide what the false heart doth know.” (1.7.79-82) He has decided not only to kill his king, but to pretend that he is innocent, and take his throne, It is his decision, not Lady Macbeth’s.
Macbeth struggles with whether he should kill the King or not, and I believe that killing the King is the worst thing that he could do. Macbeth even says, “that we but teach bloody instructions, which, being taught return, to plague the inventor” (1.7.11-13). The quote is basically saying that if Macbeth chooses to kill the King to gain power then others who are seeking power will do the same thing. Macbeth could gain power and control after the King’s death.
No he should not murder the king. He should not kill the king because the only thing he gets out of the situation is king. A con of the situation is that he will have to murder the people to be kind, so he will have to live with the guilt. A pro or reason of not killing the king is, " First, as I am his kinsman and his subject" (Macbeth Act 1 Sc 7 li 5). The quote is saying he is a kinsman, which means he is sworn to protect the king.
King Duncan then decided he would go to Macbeth 's house for dinner where Lady Macbeth had already been made aware of the situation with the witches and that Macbeth was not named king. When Macbeth arrives home she suggests they kill him, after he declines, she starts questioning his manhood and peer pressures him until he decides to kill Duncan. This act scarred the two sons of Duncan so they fled the country and Macbeth was crowned. Obviously the play ends with Macbeth as the villain, dethroned and beheaded.
