Question

MACBETH: "She would have died hereafter.

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day

The way to dusty death. Out out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the slate
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing
