not sweeten this little hand.? (Act V, Scene 1, Lines 40, 46-47) The blood

imagery exhibits Lady Macbeth?s guilt over Duncan?s murder. Her

hallucinations of blood on her hands and her constant efforts to wash it off

demonstrate that the agony of having guilty feelings is causing her to go

insane. We later learn that this guilt strains her mind to the point that she

commits suicide. In the play?s final scene, Macduff confronts Macbeth to

avenge the murders of his children and his wife at Macbeth?s hand, and to

see Malcolm established as the rightful King. As Malcolm sees Macbeth, he

exclaims, ?I have no words: / My voice is in my sword, thou bloodier villain /

Than terms can give thee out!? (Act V, Scene 8, Lines 8-10) Macbeth and

Macduff then engage in a fight to the death with Macduff eventually emerging

victorious. When Macduff, mentions blood, it speaks to justified bloodshed,

and revenge. Shakespeare uses this blood imagery to enhance the audience?s

understanding of Macbeth?s character. The audience has now witnessed the

complete transformation of Macbeth. He begins as a noble, just and brave

person, to becoming evil, ambitious, and treacherous during Duncan?s

murder, to his final feelings of remorse for his crime and finally, to the

realization that he will be punished for his sins.
