[Stage] Three Murderers enter.
First Murderer(第一个凶手)
But who did bid thee join with us?
Third Murderer(第三个凶手)
Macbeth.
Second Murderer(第二个凶手)
He needs not our mistrust, since he delivers
Our offices and what we have to do
To the direction just.
First Murderer(第一个凶手)
Then stand with us.
The west yet glimmers with some streaks of day.
Now spurs the lated traveler apace
To gain the timely inn, and near approaches
The subject of our watch.
Third Murderer(第三个凶手)
Hark, I hear horses.
Banquo(班柯)
[within] Give us a light there, ho!
Second Murderer(第二个凶手)
Then ’tis he: the rest
That are within the note of expectation
Already are i’ th’ court.
First Murderer(第一个凶手)
His horses go about.
Third Murderer(第三个凶手)
Almost a mile; but he does usually—
So all men do—from hence to the palace gate
Make it their walk.
[Stage] Banquo and Fleance enter with a torch.
Second Murderer(第二个凶手)
A light, a light!
Third Murderer(第三个凶手)
‘Tis he.
First Murderer(第一个凶手)
Stand to ’t.
Banquo(班柯)
It will be rain tonight.
First Murderer(第一个凶手)
Let it come down.
[Stage] The Murderers attack Banquo.
Banquo(班柯)
O treachery! Fly, good Fleance, fly, fly, fly!
Thou may ’st revenge —O slave!
[Stage] Banquo dies. Fleance escapes.
Third Murderer(第三个凶手)
Who did strike out the light?
Firstmurderer(第三个凶手)
Was ’t not the way?
Third Murderer(第三个凶手)
There’s but one down. The son is fled.
Second Murderer(第二个凶手)
We have lost best half of our affair.
First Murderer(第一个凶手)
Well, let’s away and say how much is done.
[Stage] They exit.
