The tragedy of Macbeth begins with three witches.

[FIRST WITCH]
When shall we three meet again?
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?

[SECOND WITCH]
When the hurly-burly’s done,
When the battle’s lost and won

[THIRD WITCH]
That will be ere the set of sun

[THIRD WITCH]
There to meet with Macbeth.

[ALL WITCHES]
Fair is foul, and foul is fair
Hover through the fog and filthy air.

Thx this really helps me for my ELA class and it’s helping me understand the book

[thomasmaudsley]

this is so helpful thank you ! are you going to do the rest of the play

[unfuzzy]

i thought this was supposed to "take you through each and every important synopsis detail". a synopsis is a brief summary not simply a retelling of the play. and what details of this scene were we taken through exactly? you just retold the play! and you didn't even retell the whole thing - you cut out whole lines! or does that make it a "synopsis" in your eyes?

Umm question how can I annotate the line? Pls help I have a literature assignment and I have to annotate act 1 scene 1

[Mastermaxxx]

that was one of the most useless videos ive ever watched. u just copied and pasted scene 1, removing some lines as well just for some extra confusion
