Once macbeth agrees to murder the king, he and lady macbeth plan that:
a. lady macbeth will make sure the guards are drugged, allowing macbeth to sneak in and stab the king to death.
b. macbeth will invite the king to have a drink with him, then drop poison into the king's cup.
c. lady macbeth will ask the king to visit her chamber, where macbeth will be waiting to stab him to death.
d. macbeth will drug the guards while lady macbeth steals the guard's dagger and stabs the king with it.

The correct answer is A. Lady Macbeth will make sure the guards are drugged, allowing Macbeth to sneak in and stab the king to death.

The plan is to drug the guards first, because they are guarding King Duncan. Once they are sleeping, Lady Macbeth will take out their daggers, Macbeth will find the daggers, go into Duncan's room, and then stab him. Later on, he will become the next king, and Lady Macbeth goes crazy (obviously, not part of the plan).

glamis thou art, and cawdor; and shalt be what thou art promis'd; yet do i fear thy nature; it is too full o' the milk of human kindness to catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great; art not without ambition; but without the illness should attend it. what thou wouldst highly, that wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false, and yet wouldst wrongly win: thou'dst have, great glamis, that which cries, "thus thou must do, if thou have it: and that which rather thou dost fear to do than wishest should be undone." hie thee hither, that i may pour my spirits in thine ear; and chastise with the valor of my tongue all that impedes thee from the golden round, which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem to have thee crown'd withal.  

he lacks ambition.  

he is hesitant.  

he lacks courage.  

he has moral scruples.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
