understanding shakespear?
I need a (maybe line by line) analysis of this monologue for an audition. Its a monolouge recited by the first witch in macbeth.
I myself have all the other,
And the very ports they blow,
All the quarters that they know
I' the shipman's card.
I will drain him dry as hay:
Sleep shall neither night nor day
Hang upon his pent-house lid;
He shall live a man forbid:
Weary se'nnights nine times nine
Shall he dwindle, peak and pine:
Though his bark cannot be lost,
Yet it shall be tempest-tost.
Look what I have.

I think you've left out some very important lines. I think they are talking about winds. She's saying that she will loose these winds so that he will be dry and will not be able to sleep. He'll be kept from sleep for 9x9 weeks (81 weeks). He will waste away without any rest, and yet he will not be able to get off his boat and ease himself from her wrath.
