MME #29: The Drama Triptych - Macbeth

Description

And the third drama-inspired alternate rendering of Thorin Oakenshield's BofA poster.

Hang out our banners on the outward walls;
The cry is still, They come. Our castle's strength
Will laugh a siege to scorn: here let them lie
Till famine and the ague eat them up.
Were they not forc'd with those that should be ours,
We might have met them dareful, beard to beard,
And beat them backward home.

I am in blood
Stepp'd in so far, that, should I wade no more,
Returning were as tedious as go o'er.

It will have blood, they say. Blood will have blood.
Stones have been known to move, and trees to speak.

- "Macbeth"
by W. Shakespeare

I remember I got an "A" for being the only student in class who succeeded in answering our Polish teacher's question: "Can you name any other book in which the trees successfully storm a castle?"

Thank you, Treebeard! :dummy:

I love Shakespear. This poster is my favorite. You get an A for a walking wood. Thats great. Without Lord of the rings and Macbeth is their another story with "marching trees"?:o (Eek)
