FIRST MURDERER But who did bid thee join with us?

Our offices and what we have to do To the direction just.

FIRST MURDERER His horses go about.
THIRD MURDERER Almost a mile; but he does usually—
So all men do—from hence to the palace gate Make it their walk.

THIRD MURDERER 'Tis he.
FIRST MURDERER Stand to 't.
BANQUO It will be rain tonight.
FIRST MURDERER Let it come down.

fly! Thou may 'st revenge —O slave!

SECOND MURDERER We have lost best half of our affair.
