Scene IV IT
Banquet prepared. Enter Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, Ross, Lennox, Lords, and
Attendants.
MACBETH
You know your own degrees, sit down. At first
And last, the hearty welcome.
LORDS
Thanks to your majesty.
MACBETH
Ourself will mingle with society
And play the humble host.
He walks around the tables.
Our hostess keeps her state; but in best time
We will require her welcome.

Pronounce it for me, sir, to all our friends,
For my heart speaks they are welcome.
