This is a qoute from Macbeth by William Shakespeare. Act 1. Scene 2. These lines are said by Duncan to Ross after the Thane of Cawdor has been caught and is waiting to be executed. The quote specifically refers to how Macbeth will be taking his place as the Thane of Cawdor. These lines show a prominent promotion for Macbeth as he begins his ascent.
