Answer:

Ross knows that Macduff's wife and son have been murdered by orders of Macbeth. Ross has to deliver these news to Macduff and he doesn't want him to hate him forever after the he tells him what has happened.

This is located in Act 4 Scene 3 Lines 203-204 of the Tragedy of Macbeth.

Explanation:

Macduff doesn't know this yet, this is why Ross says:

<em>"Let not your ears despise my tongue forever"</em> = Don't hate me forever for the words that I'm about to say.

<em>"Which shall possess them with the heaviest sound that ever yet they heard"</em> = My mouth is going to voice the saddest words that you will ever hear.

What comes after that is the  terrible news for Macduff. His son and wife were killed and he was not at home to defend them.

Answer:

Although Sultan did owe his life, that is not what is at stake with the sheep.

Ne4ueva [31]
As one moves further from the center of the circle, the interpretation is lost on the participants of the circle. 
<span>For the purpose of this discussion, a literature circle for students is similar to a book club for adults. A literature circle has greater structure and greater expectations than a book club. Literature circles are a place where students come together to read, study and discuss the books they have read. They inspire critical thinking and collaborative learning. Groups can split and re-form according to reading choices. </span>
