Act 5: Out Damn Spot!


As the last part of my Macbeth Assignments I had to do a monologue from Act 5. This is Lady Macbeth's famous "Out Damn Spot" monologue. She speaks this monologue when she is sleepwalking, and she verbalizes her guilt. She keeps seeing blood on her hands which she can't seem to clean off. After Duncan's murder she tells her husband: "A little water clears us of this deed. How easy is it then!" (II.ii.70-71). Obviously her guilt is harder to clear than she thought.
