Answer: This excerpt is part of a soliloquy that reveals Macbeth's inner conflict. The last line refers to the theme of fate versus free will.

Explanation: To identify the meaning of any given individual excerpt it is key to look at that excerpt in context and try to use those contextual clues to help us grasp it. This excerpt is actually from Act I scene 3 and is said by Macbeth as part of an aside in response to hearing the prophecy of the witches and then having the first element of that prophecy completed through his gaining of the title of Thane of Cawdor. In this aside, Macbeth explores his curious span of feelings at having had the first stage of the prophecy confirmed, and debates whether the prophecies he has received are good or bad.

Macbeth is asking if the prophecies are good, why is it that he finds himself observing killing King Duncan, something that terrifies him incredibly because it is such an unnatural thing to want to do? This excerpt therefore points towards the way in which Macbeth is already contemplating committing regicide to gain the crown for himself.

In Longfellow’s poem "The Village Blacksmith," Longfellow never gives a name to the blacksmith. By not naming the blacksmith, Lo
Ahat [919]

Answer:

My dad is like the village blacksmith.

The first and second verse of the poem, the writer describes the physical attributes of the blacksmith.

Then in verse 3, the blacksmith's innate qualities of consistency, and hard work are unravelled.

This is very typical of my dad who though is a farmer never slips up on his work and always keeps his promise.

Another quality of the blacksmith that I see in my dad is found in verse 5. It reads that the blacksmith sits amongst the boys on Sunday, connoting that he is a Christian.

My dad, same as the blacksmith not only goes to church on Sunday. He prays and teaches us to do the same.

He is quite inclined towards God. I guess it's because much like the blacksmith who from steel forges various kinds of tools and shapes objects, He recognises that many of the things around us too were "forged" by a Superior Blacksmith.

Cheers!
