Besides, this Duncan Hath borne his faculties so meek, hath been So clear in his great office, that his virtues Will plead like angels

Besides, this Duncan has used his powers so gently, has been so good in his great role, that his great morality will beseech like angels

Bloody instructions, which, being taught, return To plague the inventor

By being violent, we teach others to be violent, and our students of violence will come back to plague the teacher.

It is strange: Often, in order to do us harm, The witches tell us the truth about, matters of small importance, and then betray us in something of importance.
