Macbeth
So in English, we recently begun reading one of Shakespeare's well known tragedies Macbeth. It starts off with Macbeth, Thane of Glamis, and his friend Banquo receiving a prophecy from three ugly witches. They tell Macbeth that he is going to gain the title of Thane of Cawdor and that someday he might be King of Scotland as well. Soon after Macbeth's prediction, Duncan, the King of Scotland, has Macbeth take the title Thane of Cawdor as well as Glamis. Afterwards Macbeth sends a letter to his wife telling her what has happened and that the witches prediction came true. Lady Macbeth reads the letter her husband sends her and helps him conspire against King Duncan. They plan to murder him during his visit at their place. But Macbeth has doubts and doesn't want to follow through on their plan. But Lady Macbeth finally convinces her husband and he kill King Duncan. Then they try to plant evidence of the crime on the King's guards.
