Answer:

D. Foreshadowing

Explanation:

This is an example of foreshadowing. Foreshadowing occurs in a narrative when an author gives the reader a hint of what is going to happen later in the story. In this case, the author tells us that the spell wanted to punish those who messed with their fate. It wanted to show them that "those who interfere with it do so to their sorrow." This foreshadows the fact that the next people to make a wish will also suffer dearly.

mash [69]

"O, never/Shall sun that morrow see!" means "The morning when Duncan leaves here will never come, because we're going to kill him tonight." "Your face, my thane, is as a book where men/May read strange matters" means "By looking at your face, everybody can see what you're thinking." The rest of the speech means "To fool everybody, you have to behave the way everybody expects you to behave. You have to make sure that the way you look, the way you act, and the way you talk all seem to be giving Duncan a friendly welcome. You have to seem harmless even though you are secretly deadly."
