MacDuff’s view

spot. I was shocked, deeply saddened and terribly disgusted at

whichever animal that had done this terrible deed.

When Macbeth entered the room of death, I was extremely appalled

by his behaviour towards the death of the one who had been so nice to

him. He did not seem to be in anyway saddened by this terrible

incident, yet he proclaimed that he was so furious that he killed

Duncan's attendants. Malcolm and Donalbain were not exceptionally

emotional about this incident either. After hearing the news about

their father's death, they were more concerned about who killed him

and were more worried about them being next to die rather than feeling

any emotions for Duncan's death.

As I entered Duncan's room in Macbeth's castle, the room was

drenched with blood and the smell of death hung in the air. Myself,

among with the other men; Macbeth, Banquo, Malcolm and Donalbain had

all seen the horror and we were all suspicious of each other. At

first, when I entered the room, I found the attendants of the King had

blood on their faces and daggers in their hands, but when Macbeth

entered to see Duncan's body, he said that he had killed them.

Naturally, I would have suspected the attendants at first, but I do

not understand why Macbeth had to kill them... That is, unless he was

guilty of the treacherous act.

Malcolm and Donalbain said that they were going to flee from

Scotland and I am partly apprehensive that it was them who had done

the deed and fled to avoid explanation if questioned. However, I would

intend to think that the one who had betrayed the country may be

Macbeth for he had killed the attendants and gave a speech that was

not particularly convincing. He had appropriate reasons for killing

Duncan - to be King. I am definitely going to find out who the traitor

is and when I find out who he is, I swear that I will paint my sword

with his blood and to revenge for my country and my good friend

Duncan.
