Answer:
c. the revelation of how Macduff was born
d. the news that soldiers carrying boughs from Birnam Wood are approaching
Explanation:
Shakespeare's famous play, <em>Macbeth</em>, is a story about the Scottish general, his attempt to become a king and preserve the position. Macbeth is told by the three witches that no man born of woman will be able to harm him, as well as that he is safe until Birnam wood starts moving. Macbeth believes in what they say, ensured that his position as a king could not be compromised. However, towards the end of the play, Malcolm and his army are approaching the castle, camouflaged with the trees from the forest, and Macbeth realizes that he has been misled by the witches' prophecy. This becomes even more clear on the battlefield, when he finds out that Macduff was born by Caesarean section - he was not, in fact, "of woman born."
"Wider still, and wider, shall thy bounds be set;" if this refers to the British Empire I believe it means that it is commenting on the expanding boundaries of this Empire as new lands are conquered and turned into colonies. At one time, Britain had far flung colonies in Africa, Asia and also the 13 colonies and Canada before the independence movements of the late 18th century in America and also 20th century in Africa. In other words, at one time the world was colonized by primarily the Spanish, the Portuguese and the British and the colonies had to supply the raw materials to the colonizers and were an appendage of the big powers.
