‘disloyal traitor’ gone against duncan and joined the enemy (swapped sides)

It may also be noted that by being the husband of Bellona, the Roman Goddess of War, he is presented as much more superior to that of a God- which is later juxtaposed by the description ‘dead butcher.’

Golgotha was the place where Jesus was crusified. By linking the war to Golgotha, the Captain may be suggesting that Macbeth and Banquo are willing to give their lives up for their country, just as Jesus sacrificed his life for mankind.

Another inference that could relate to this is the theme to thirst for power. Macbeth has been rewarded and praised for his violence over and over again which makes him more powerful. They all lust for power hence why they might wish for a battle as holy, gory and noble as this.

The mention of Golgotha, the site where Jesus was crucified, foreshadows Duncan’s death. It relates to the constant reference to the Divine Right of Kings throughout the play as the Captain says Macbeth meant to ‘memorise another Golgotha’, presenting Macbeth in a way that implies he is a defier of God.

Macbeth is linked with nature here – ‘eagles’ and ‘lion’ – however it contrasts to the whole idea of the play that Macbeth goes against Nature, God, and commits treason by killing the king

the sparrows and hare represents macbeth and banquo showing that the fight was extremely one sided with macbeth and banquo being the underdog due to the betrayal but won

he was not scared

Macbeth’s reputation on the battlefield is enhanced by the similes of the Captain’s second report: ‘As sparrows eagles, or the hare the lion.’ In this quote Macbeth and Banquo, are compared to ‘eagles’ and ‘lions’ unafraid of the timid Norwegians, who themselves are likened to ‘sparrows’ or ‘a hare’. Symbolically, the lion appears on the royal coat of arms of the kings of Scotland this foreshadows Macbeth becoming king; the fact that Macbeth is fighting like a lion could also be interpreted as fighting to keep his place as a king which happens later on in the play.

We can see the use of ‘bloody’. The connotations of ‘bloody’ are red, evil and angry. It basically connotes a type of eerie atmosphere. Duncan’s view currently is of a captain with lots of blood. This may be suggesting the captain has been in a battle.
Later in play, the gender roles are reversed as Macbeth was planning to kill King Duncan but was afraid to do so, thus Lady Macbeth taking on a masculine role in order to persuade him to do the murder. This could be a foreshadowing scene from the use of ‘newest state’.

Can also be referred to as the unholy trinity that links with the strong religious beliefs in the Jacobean society

Witches were demonised during the Shakespearian times – starting off with witches instils fear in a Jacobean audience’s heart as they were feared much more than these days.

The play opens with the Supernatural, showing that they are probably going to control most of the plot in some way or another

In Elizabethan England the number three was seen as unlucky. Hints towards the unfortunate fate of Macbeth.
