1038: <\/em>To be thus, is nothing, but to be safely thus
1039: <\/i>Our feares in Banquo<\/i> sticke deepe,
1040: <\/i>And in his Royaltie of Nature reignes that
1041: <\/i>Which would be fear’d. ‘Tis much he dares,
1042: <\/i>And to that dauntlesse temper of his Minde,
1043: <\/i>He hath a Wisdome, that doth guide his Valour,
1044: <\/i>To act in safetie. There is none but he,
1045: <\/i>Whose being I doe feare: and vnder him,
1046: <\/i>My Genius<\/i> is rebuk’d, as it is said
1047: <\/i>Mark Anthonies<\/i> was by Caesar<\/i>. He chid the Sisters,
1048: <\/i>When first they put the Name of King vpon me,
1049: <\/i>And bad them speake to him. Then Prophet-like,
1050: <\/i>They hayl’d him Father to a Line of Kings.
1051: <\/i>Vpon my Head they plac’d a fruitlesse Crowne,
1052: <\/i>And put a barren Scepter in my Gripe,
1053: <\/i>Thence to be wrencht with an vnlineall Hand,
1054: <\/i>No Sonne of mine succeeding: if’t be so,
1055: <\/i>For Banquo’s<\/i> Issue haue I fil’d my Minde,
1056: <\/i>For them, the gracious Duncan<\/i> haue I murther’d,
1057: <\/i>Put Rancours in the Vessell of my Peace
1058: <\/i>Onely for them, and mine eternall Iewell
1059: <\/i>Giuen to the common Enemie of Man,
1060: <\/i>To make them Kings, the Seedes of Banquo<\/i> Kings.
1061: <\/i>Rather then so, come Fate into the Lyst,
1062: <\/i>And champion me to th’ vtterance.
1063: <\/i>Who’s there?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
