Why is Macbeth at first confident he will survive?

Because he really was a brave and honorable soldier in the beginning of the play. He was a loyal soldier to King Duncan. Only afterwards when the ambition got to his head did he actually start killing people so that he could become King.


To which king did 'Macbeth' pay tribute?

William Shakespeare [Baptized April 26, 1564-April 23, 1616] had to worry about royal favor. During most of his writing career, he was a subject of Queen Elizabeth I [September 7, 1533-March 24, 1603]. During the last 13 years of his life, he had to get used to a completely different monarch, King James [June 19, 1566-March 27, 1625] I of England and Ireland and VI of Scotland. The King was the son of Mary I [December 8, 1542-February 8, 1587] of Scotland. Mary considered Elizabeth's claim to the English throne questionable, and let her disrespect be known. She ended up being executed for treason. So Shakespeare had to find a way to get along with Mary's son. He did so by changing history and altering personalities in the play 'Macbeth'. In that play, he presented Banquo as the noble opposite to the ignoble Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057]. His reason was the King's claimed descent from Banquo. And so the play was meant as a tribute to King James I/VI.


Why did Macbeth kill Duncan?

because he wanted to become king. he also wanted to get rid of his kids (one of whom would be heir to the throne) but they flead making him the new king. the above ans is does not answer the question FULLY. Macbeth is not entirely evil, he does think he shouldn't really kill Duncan. He thinks three reasons: He is his kinsman and host (therefore it is entrusted with him to look after his guest) and finally Macbeth is his subject. Lady Macbeth does however manipulate Macbeth into killing Duncan as she insults and questions his manhood when he wishes to go no more in their plan. Even though there is many reasons against killing Duncan there is only one true reason his deep dark desire which was awoken be the witches in the first scene of the Scottish Play. Duncan's children fled from Scotland as they feared for their lives. They thought there was 'daggers in men's smiles'. This left Macbeth and Lady Macbeth as King and Queen of Scotland...

They were As cannons overcharged with double cracks?

So they doubly redoubled strokes upon the foe. Except they meant to bathe in reeking wounds, or memorize another Golgotha, I cannot tell.


As sparrows eagles or the hare the lion. if i say sooth i must report they were as cannons overcharged with double cracks so they doubly redoubled strokes upon the foe?

This is a comparison suggesting that the sparrows, eagles, hare, and lion were all fiercely engaged in battle like cannons firing with intense power and force. The imagery emphasizes the ferocity and intensity of the combat, highlighting the aggressive and potent nature of their attacks.
