The Ghost at the Banquet

Banquo talks to the Three Witches.

Which Witch is Which?

 

BANQUO

Good sir, why do you start and seem to fear
Things that do sound so fair? (to the WITCHES) I’ th’ name of truth,
Are ye fantastical, or that indeed
Which outwardly ye show? My noble partner
You greet with present grace and great prediction
Of noble having and of royal hope,
That he seems rapt withal. To me you speak not.
If you can look into the seeds of time
And say which grain will grow and which will not,
Speak, then, to me, who neither beg nor fear
Your favours nor your hate.
Now. Who WAS Banquo… really?
