MALCOLM
Now near enough. Your leafy screens throw down, And show like those you are.—You, worthy uncle, Shall, with my cousin, your right-noble son, Lead our first battle. Worthy Macduff and we Shall take upon ’s what else remains to do, According to our order. |
MALCOLM
We’re close enough now. Throw down these branches and show them who you really are. Uncle Siward, you and your son will lead the first battle. Brave Macduff and I will do the rest, according to our battle plan. |

SIWARD
Fare you well. Do we but find the tyrant’s power tonight, Let us be beaten if we cannot fight. |
SIWARD
Good luck. If we meet Macbeth’s army tonight, let us be beaten if we cannot fight. |

MACDUFF
Make all our trumpets speak; give them all breath, Those clamorous harbingers of blood and death. |
MACDUFF
Blow all the trumpets. They loudly announce the news of blood and death. |

Exeunt |
They exit. |
