The witches are the ones who give Macbeth the prophecy that he will one day become king, that Banquo with father kings, and that Macbeth can not be killed by anyone born of woman. These set off Macbeth's entire journey in the play and motivate him to kill the king, kill Banquo, and ultimately lead to his downfall.
<span>The correct answer is D. The phrase "whose origin was a Terminus" is a paradox because it's a contradictory statement that somehow manages to be true. The fact that Jack's beginning (origin) occurred at an end (Terminus) is a paradox. The statement is also a pun because by using the words "origin" and "Terminus," Lady Bracknell (the speaker of this line) is using the same words that train conductors used to describe their stops. The word "origin" was used to describe the first stop on a route, and the word "Terminus" was used to describe the final stop on the route. Therefore this line contains both a paradox and a pun. </span>
