Lady Macduff, her son and Rosse were talking about Macduff and how he abandoned his family when they needed his protection. Lady Macduff keeps explaining how Macduff is a traitor and how she can get a new husband so easily while Rosse is trying to give good reasons why Macduff fled. “you know not whether it was his wisdom or his fear.”Wisdom! tp leave his wife, to his babes, his mansion, and his titles, in a place From whence himself does fly? he loves us not.”. Lady Macduff was correct and some murderers came and killed her and her son.
