 Studying Macbeth. Here's how you can analyse Act 2, Scene 4. An old man tells Ross that he can remember everything that's happened in the last 70 years but what happened last night makes everything elsey minor. Ross notices that even if it's daytime it looks like it's night time. He uses oxymoron as well as pathetic fallacy to show that he thinks strange supernatural things are happening in Scotland. The old man agrees that the weather is unnatural just like the murder of King Duncan. Macduff then enters and tells Ross that the guards who are supposed to have been guarding King Duncan are the ones who killed him and Macbeth has already killed them. Macduff believes that the guards were paid to kill King Duncan. He believes the King's sons who run away are the main suspects for this murder. Ross is shocked and this is a supernatural sentence shows he thinks that everything has happened is really unnatural. Macduff then tells Ross that Macbeth has already been made King and he's gone to Skone to be crowned. Macduff then decides to go back home to five whilst Ross decides to go to Skone to watch Macbeth's crowning.
