It came in handy because before this, people would have to do it by hand and it took several hours.

This is aided by the fact that crime is low in the city, there are few murders and little robberies, with most…

With the King coming over the next night, it would make sense to… but who was Macbeth kidding, he couldn’t kill Duncan, especially after he presented him with the honour of being Thane of Cawdor. Is there anyone who could persuade him otherwise? Lady Macbeth, arguably Shakespeare’s most famous female character was influential in ruining…
