Lady Macbeth dör vansinnig och Macbeth själv möter döden på slagfältet på det sätt som häxorna i dunkla ordalag ... Macbeth fights Macduff and learns that Macduff was delivered by cesarean section, meaning that he was not born of a woman. Macduff kills Macbeth and proclaims Malcolm the King of Scotland.
While he is certainly no hero, he's not a typical villain, either. Macbeth is complex, and his guilt for his many bloody crimes is a central theme of the play.
