Diary Entry 3
Glamis and Cawdor are mine! I now believe in the witches, so when Malcolm was made king, I know it isn’t for the rest of his life. I shall do what ever I can do become king; the witches obviously made it clear that I shall be. But the witches have also declared Banquoe’s children kings, so I believe that killing them will secure my place as king. I’m not sure about killing them, as Banquoe is a good friend of mine. My wife believes that I should kill him and even kill Duncan as me becoming king is “meant to be”. I will do what my wife says in the end though, because she is the smart one, I am just someone who fights in battle to win for my country. God, please make me make the right decision.
Diary Entry 4
I think that my wife is forcing me into killing Duncan, right now she is telling me to go and kill him. Duncan is a good man, I really don’t want kill him, but if my wife believes it’s the best thing to do, and it’ll please her, then I shall go and kill him. If I kill Duncan then I will have to kill Banquoe and his children so he can’t have anymore of them. I want to be king and be very powerful, but I don’t feel right killing one of my closest friends and the king. I shall be sent into eternal damnation when I kill the king because he is God’s representative on Earth. I am really not sure about this. God help me.
Diary Entry 5
My wife is very happy now I am king, but I am not so. I felt that the witches have played with our minds; making me kill and my wife make me kill to make me king. If I had not have done this then I don’t think that I would have become king. I don’t feel like a king, and I also think that there maybe some people who know what I have done and they are starting a revolt. Above all, I believe that my wife is to blame for the people I have killed, I do love her, but she just took it too far for some power. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to forgive her. Please give me strength to do so God!
Diary Entry 6
Although I believe these witches have made me kill all these people and make my wife power hungry, I still wanted to see what they have to say for themselves. They said that the forest would move towards the castle and that no one born from a mother’s womb would be able to kill me. This reassured me, not that I should believe them, but they were right about the 1st two things happening, so maybe I should do. I am not sure what they mean by the forest moving towards my castle. But if it comes true, I will soon see. I’m not sure if they are still playing with my mind or not. They are so strange it’s hard to tell if they mean things or not. I just hope nothing happens to my wife or I.
Diary Entry 7
I am devastated! Even though she did drive me to kill many people, I still loved her. I can’t believe that she has died. Maybe the witches drove her to kill herself. I am afraid that I may join her very soon, as a large army is on their way, dressed in the leaves from the forest for camouflage, the witches were telling the truth. I fear that they will kill me; my army here is too small. Please God, help me to win this battle and avenge the death of my wife.
