The anaylsis of the quote: "This Dead Butcher and His Fiend - Like Queen" from the Macbeth play

Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are essentially good individuals who make an immoral judgement. It is dishonest to describe them as "this dead butcher and his fiend - like queen". They are valued individuals who reveal a loving connection. Their decline is triggered by their ambition for Macbeth to be great, sparked by the witches' prophecy, and not because they are evil. Macbeth's hesitancy on whether or not to kill King Duncan, and Lady Macbeth's begging …

…Macbeth is not a butcher, but rather a good man with the tragic flaw of ambition. It is now clear that Macbeth and lady Macbeth are not purely evil. Lady Macbeth's clear suffering and remorse, shown by her sleepwalking and suicide, and Macbeth's fighting to his death, like the fearless soldier in the first Act, establish and confirm that Malcolm's description of them as "this dead butcher and his fiend-like queen" is unjust and incorrect.
