Question

What is the most likely reason lady Macbeth creates an emotional appeal?

O to petition the spirits in hopes that they will cast an enchantment over the guests in the castle
• to implore the unseen beings to help her reform her villainous thoughts
• to call on the supernatural to remove feminine
characteristics that she thinks could hold her back
• to persuade the three Weird Sisters to use their powers to influence her as they did her husband

Answer 1

She feels guilt about her involvement in Duncan's murder (and the other murders) and wants to wash away the blood that was on her hands and the guilt that she feels.
