Macbeth just found out that his wife has died and is questioning why she died so early.

Macbeth is ready to fight and is angry, the fact that he’s heard that his wife has just died, maddens him more and makes him lose his sense of thought.

The structure of the extract presents how Macbeths state of mind is deteriorating as he starts to lose the structure of his speaking. Shakespeare consistently uses iambic pentameter and rythym when characters are speaking to show their state of mind and authority in a certain environment. When the rythym is constant then it portrays that they are in control of their mind and have good relationships with other characters
