In Shakespeare's Macbeth, Act 4, scene 1, lines 97-105, Macbeth receives three apparitions which provide him with three pieces of a prophecy (1- Beware of Macduff, 2- Macbeth cannot be harmed by someone born form a woman, 3- Macbeth will not be defeated until the Birnam Wood walks to Dusinane Hill). After hearing this prophecy, he feels pleased and safe to know that he will be king until the day he dies (lines 103-105: <em>"... Macbeth</em><em>Shall live the lease of nature, pay his breath To time and mortal custom."</em>). However, he is still eager to know if Banquo and his offspring will reign eventually (lines 105-108: <em>Yet my heart Throbs to know one thing. Tell me, if your art can tell so much: shall Banquo’s issue ever Reign in this kingdom?</em>). This goes to show that he didn't feel like he had enough with knowing he would be king for his entire life, he also had to know that Banquo would not reign. This shows how irrationally ambitious and egotistical he had become.
Piatt conveys her
realist views about nature and society through this poem. She seems to
suggest that the world, like nature, is not always ideal. She paints a
rational picture of society: “And my subject, the dove, coos on, /
Though my hand creep close to her nest.” These lines convey how the
world is made up of good people and bad people. The dove represents the
people who are benign and trusting, even with those out to harm them.
The dubious actions of the narrator of the poem depict those people who
try to take advantage of the trust and loyalty of the gentle people. The
speaker is depicted as flawed and human. She can hurt others and also
be hurt by others. Piatt does not seem to adhere to the romantic
idealization of nature and women.
