14311. Why how now Hecat, you looke angerly?
1433Sawcy, and ouer-bold, how did you dare
1434To Trade, and Trafficke with Macbeth,
1435In Riddles, and Affaires of death;
And
The Tragedie of Macbeth. 143
1436And I the Mistris of your Charmes,
1437The close contriuer of all harmes,
1438Was neuer call'd to beare my part,
1439Or shew the glory of our Art?
1440And which is worse, all you haue done
1441Hath bene but for a wayward Sonne,
1442Spightfull, and wrathfull, who (as others do)

1455Ile catch it ere it come to ground;
1459Shall draw him on to his Confusion.

1462And you all know, Security
1463Is Mortals cheefest Enemie.
1464 Musicke, and a Song.
1465Hearke, I am call'd: my little Spirit see
1466Sits in a Foggy cloud, and stayes for me.
1467 Sing within. Come away, come away, &c.
1469Backe againe. Exeunt.
