From the sound of things, I thought that Abby had made a big messy, but it turned to just be a Macbeth.

Actually, Macbeth became the King of Scotland, not England.
Macbeth is stupid. William Shakespeare is dead. Middle English is dead. So WHY are we still reading his works?

"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
