    For Banquo's issue have I filed my mind;
    For them the gracious Duncan have I murder'd;

    Given to the common enemy of man,
    To make them kings, the seed of Banquo kings!
  2. dauntless

    He hath a wisdom that doth guide his valour
    To act in safety.

  7. rebuke
    an act or expression of criticism and censure
