Lady Macbeth is regarded as highly as Macbeth and respected just as he is. King Duncan refers to her a “our honored hostess”, complementing the feel of their castle when he comes to visit. Her ambition and love for her husband is immediately shown when she involves herself in the murder, wanting Macbeth to become king. Throughout the beginning of the play, Lady Macbeth shows her fearlessness and strength when she chooses to be involved with the murder of King Duncan. The difference between Lady Macbeth and Macbeth is obviously revealed when Macbeth is driven to kill Banquo and Lady Macbeth tells him not to. Later on in the play, Lady Macbeth’s guilt is shown through her sleep walking. In the beginning, she plays a strong, hard woman, but by the end of the play it is revealed that woman eventually do give into their feelings and deep emotions. In the end, she commits suicide unable to cope with her wrongful decisions.
