Act II: Scene 3

ALL.
Well contented.

[Exeunt all but Malcolm and Donalbain.]

MALCOLM.

Which the false man does easy. I'll to England.

DONALBAIN.

Shall keep us both the safer: where we are,
There's daggers in men's smiles: the near in blood,
The nearer bloody.

MALCOLM.

Hath not yet lighted; and our safest way

And let us not be dainty of leave-taking,
But shift away: there's warrant in that theft
Which steals itself, when there's no mercy left.

[Exeunt.]
