2. King's Stay at Macbeth's Castle: Macbeth announces that King Duncan will be staying at their castle that very night. This news presents an ideal opportunity for them to carry out their plan to seize power.

3. His Love for Lady: Although primarily focused on the witches' prophecy, Macbeth takes a moment to express his unwavering love and admiration for Lady Macbeth. He acknowledges that she is the driving force behind his ambition and refers to her as his "dearest partner of greatness."
