"For Banquo's issue have I filed my mind" - is it pronounced fi-led or fill-ed?

I am unsure wether it is an old spelling of 'filled' or if it should be pronounced fil-ed.

Note to Flattire17: It would require days of research just to find an answer to this question, but someone on here my know the answer. It is not for homework, I am doing the speech in an audition.

I think the metre tells you that it should be 'filed'. One syllable. For BANquo's ISSue HAVE I FILED my MIND.

i think that you should do your homework and research old history of english....during the elizabethan times....the pronounciation depends on the word, i think it might be fill-ed.
