SCENE V.

Macbeth and Seaton.
MACBETH.
What mean these acclamations from our men?

SEATON.
The enemy have thrown the branches down,
And round the castle, show us all their war;
Light-kindled spears and crests of waving plumes,
Which your bold lieges on the walls and towers,
Welcome with gay defiance.

MACBETH.
Hearts of gold!
Give them my thanks. In their courageous note,
I heard the voice of other times resound.—
I'll wear to-day, the armour I had on,
When, for my carve at the Dane's carnage feast,
I gain'd new honour from the good king Duncan.
Ha! will my every thought still turn on him,
And each slight motion of long unfelt joy,
But stir the wounds of guilty agony!
