Macbeth Four Paragraph Essay• Examples:
I believe in fate because we can't peer into the future and see what life has in store for us. We can only take what life throws at us as it comes.
Fate is a realistic thing because we cannot control the future, like Macbeth tried to do.
In Shakespeare’s Macbeth, the main character, Macbeth, tries to control his own destiny, which resulted in his actions being punished and fate deciding his life.

Macbeth Close Reading
Be innocent of the knowledge, dearest chuck,Till thou applaud the deed. Come, seeling night,
Scarf up the tender eye of pitiful day;And with thy bloody and invisible hand
Cancel and tear to pieces that great bondWhich keeps me pale! Light thickens; and the crow
Makes wing to the rooky wood:Good things of day begin to droop and drowse;
While night's black agents to their preys do rouse.Thou marvell'st at my words: but hold thee still;
Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill.So, prithee, go with me.
