Part II:
4. A) The irony in Act 2, Scene 3, is that Macduff believes Lady Macbeth is too innocent to talk
about violence and especially about the king being murdered. However, the reader knows that
Lady Macbeth is involved with murdering the king. It was Lady Macbeth’s plan to drug the
king’s chamberlains, convince Macbeth to follow through, and frame the guards for the kings
murder by placing blood on their daggers.
B) The dramatic irony in Act 3, Scene 4 is Ross inviting Macbeth to sit in the empty seat
at the table with everyone, but the reader and Macbeth see the ghost of Banquo sitting
beside him. Macbeth begins to talk to the ghost, but no other character can see him in the story,
thus making Macbeth look crazy.
5. A) Macbeth's dishonesty and deceit is his unrestrained ambition for becoming a powerful king.
Macbeth displays this after he lies about killing King Duncan’s guards and then by
accusing the guards of killing their king. “For ruin’s wasteful entrance: there, the murders,
steeped in the colors of their trade, their daggers / Unmannerly breeched with gore”. (Act
2, Scene 3, Lines 93-95) Macbeth is stating how the guards lay dead on the floor with
Duncan's blood on the daggers, which is untrue.
