The Captain's Tale

The Captain was the only source from the battle field. Malcolm had taken him and explained that this man had saved his life. Malcolm prompt the captain into telling King Duncan what is was like. He described the armies as two exhausted swimmers clinging to each other. Their opponent, Macdonwald, came with foot soldiers and horsemen from Ireland and the Hebrides. Even though it seemed as if Macdonwald would have won, Macbeth turned the tables and the victory was in his hands. The Captain continued to praise Macbeth and Banquo on being strong captains. This made King Duncan proud because he was related to M
acbeth.
