Please write 4 PETER (Point, Evidence, Technique, Explain, Refer) paragraphs on the extract below. Please refer to the end of the extract to see the instructions. Thank you Act 1 Scene 3 - Macbeth
At this point in the play, after receiving The Witches' prophecies, Macbeth and Banquo have just been told that Duncan has made Macbeth Thane of Cawdor.

Banquo
But 'tis strange,
And oftentimes, to win us to our harm,
The instruments of darkness tell us truths;
Win us with honest trifles, to betray's
In deepest consequence. -
Cousins, a word, I pray you.
MACBETH [Aside]
Two truths are told,
As happy prologues to the swelling act
Of the imperial theme. - I thank you, gentlemen. -
This supernatural soliciting
Cannot be ill, cannot be good. If ill
Why hath it given me earnest of success,
Commencing in a truth? I am Thane of Cawdor.
If good, why do I yield to that suggestion,
Whose horrid image doth unfix my hair
And make my seated heart knock at my ribs
Against the use of nature? Present fears
Are less than horrible imaginings.
My thought, whose murder yet is but fantastical,
Shakes so my single state of man that function
Is smothered in surmise, and nothing is,
But what is not.

Write about:
How Shakespeare presents the attitudes of Macbeth and Banquo towards the supernatural in this extract.
How Shakespeare presents the attitudes of Macbeth and Banquo towards the supernatural in the play as a whole.
