MACBETH
The prince of Cumberland: that is a step on which I must fall down, or else o’erleap, for in my way it lies. Stars, hide your fires, let not light see my black and deep desires, the eye wink at the hand. Yet let that be, which the eyes fears when it is done to see.

The prince of Cumberland.  Thats a step to high and he must come down. He lies in my way. Stars hide the true me and let light not show the real my black and deep desires.

but ’tis strange

But ’tis strange

and oftentimes, to win us to our harm,

the instruments of darkness tell us truths,

win us with honest trifles, to betray’s

in deepest consequence.

 

it is strange: often, in order to do us harm, the witches tell us things that are truths about matters of small importance and then betrays our relation of something of importance.
