Extract – This scene is just after Macbeth has murdered Duncan:
Methought I heard a voice cry, âSleep no more!
Macbeth does murder sleepââthe innocent sleep,
Sleep that knits up the ravellâd sleave of care,
The death of each dayâs life, sore labourâs bath,
Balm of hurt minds, great natureâs second course,
Chief nourisher in lifeâs feast.Still it cried, âSleep no more!â to all the house;
âGlamis hath murdered sleep, and therefore Cawdor
Shall sleep no more; Macbeth shall sleep no more.âWill all great Neptuneâs ocean wash this blood
Clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather
The multitudinous seas incarnadine,
Making the green one red.Question:
Starting with this extract, how does Shakespeare present guilt in Macbeth?

Extract – Taken from the Balcony scene Act 2 Scene 2:
With loveâs light wings did I oâerperch these walls;
For stony limits cannot hold love out,
And what love can do that dares love attempt;
Therefore thy kinsmen are no stop to me.Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye
Than twenty of their swords. Look thou but sweet,
And I am proof against their enmity.I have nightâs cloak to hide me from their sight;
And but thou love me, let them find me here.
My life were better ended by their hate
Than death prorogued, wanting of thy love.
   Question:
Starting with this extract, how does Shakespeare present the power of love?

External heat and cold had little influence on Scrooge. No warmth could warm, no wintry weather chill him. No wind that blew was bitterer than he,
No falling snow was more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to entreaty.
Foul weather didnât know where to have him. The heaviest rain, and snow, and hail, and sleet, could boast of the advantage over him in only one respect. They often âcame downâ handsomely, and Scrooge never did.
Nobody ever stopped him in the street to say, âMy dear Scrooge, how are you?â No beggars implored him to bestow a trifle, no children asked him what it was oâclock, no man or woman ever once in all his life inquired the way to such and such a place.Â
Question

With ape-like fury, he was trampling his victim underfoot, and hailing down a storm of blows, under which the bones were audibly shattered and the body jumped upon the roadway.
The next moment, with ape-like fury, he was trampling his victim underfoot and hailing down a storm of blows, under which the bones were audibly shattered and the body jumped upon the roadway. At the horror of these sights and sounds, the maid fainted.
It was two o’clock when she came to herself and called for the police. The murderer was gone long ago; but there lay his victim in the middle of the lane, incredibly mangled.Â
Question
Starting with this extract, how does Stevenson present violence and duality in the novel?

Wind
The wind moved softly through the empty street,
Carrying whispers no one else could hear.
A single light flickered in the distance,
Fighting against the weight of the night.
The silence felt heavier with each step,
As though the world was holding its breath.
Nothing stirred, yet something lingered,
Unseen but impossible to ignore.
