Macbeth Vs. Macduff

After learning about the second apparition Macbeth was very calm because he thought that he is unstoppable and cannot be killed by anyone. But he dosen’t realise that only “None of women born shall harm Macbeth”. A person like Macduff that is his biggest enemy can harm, or even kill him if need be. Then come marching Macduff’s 10,000 troops from England to kill Macbeth. Every soldier had cut down a tree and used it as camouflage. Thats when the third apparition comes true. The forest and trees are walking but Macbeth knows that is impossible. Macbeth has totally changed from who he used to be in the beginning of the play. At first he didn’t even know that is he wants to kill Duncan, bet after he commits the crime of killing the King he doesn’t mind killing anyone and everyone who opposed him. When he learns that the third apparition is coming true and so will the fourth apparition he just sits there in his castle while everyone else leaves. That shows how stubborn he is and how he won’t change his mind. When Macduff intrudes into the Castle and faces Macbeth there is no doubt who won. Macduff slaughters Macbeth and then Scotland has a new Ruler.
