MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS IN SHAKESPEARE’S MACBETH
La «musica» delle TreStreghe
A1, sc1, 11-12 (T31)ALL Fair is foul, and foul is fair:*
HECATE [A4, sc1, 39-43 (T137)]O well done! I commend your pains;And every one shall share i' the gains;And now about the cauldron sing,Live elves and fairies in a ring,Enchanting all that you put in.Music and a song: 'Black spirits,' & c
HECATE retires
A3, sc5, didascalia iniziale (T127)**Thunder.Enter the three Witches meeting HECATE
A4, sc1, 128-131 (T145)First Witch I'll charm the air to give a sound,While you perform your antic round:That this great king may kindly say,Our duties did his welcome pay.
A4, sc1, 1 segg (T135) First Witch Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd.Second Witch Thrice and once the hedge-pig whined.Third Witch Harpier cries 'Tis time, 'tis time.[…]ALL Double, double toil and trouble; *Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.
A1, sc3, 77-86 (T44)MACBETH Your children shall be kings.BANQUO You shall be king.MACBETH And thane of Cawdor too: went it not so?BANQUO To the selfsame tune and words. Who's here?
A5, sc5, 24-28 (T189)MACBETHLife's but a walking shadow, a poor playerThat struts and frets his hour upon the stageAnd then is heard no more: it is a taleTold by an idiot, full of sound and fury,Signifying nothing.
A2, sc1, 52-55, 63-65 (T63)MACBETH witchcraft celebratesPale Hecate's offerings, and wither'd murder,Alarum'd by his sentinel, the wolf,* Whose howl's his watch, thus with his stealthy pace. […]
A bell ringsI go, and it is done; the bell invites me.Hear it not, Duncan; for it is a knell **That summons thee to heaven or to hell.
A1, sc7, 16-20 (T63)MACBETH Besides, this DuncanHath borne his faculties so meek, hath beenSo clear in his great office, that his virtuesWill plead like angels, trumpet-tongued, againstThe deep damnation of his taking-off;
