• LADY MACBETH: '"dash'd the brains out"'
• The plosive on "dash'd" creates a brutal sound, mirroring her brutal rejection of motherly instincts. Her proclivity for violence takes precedence over motherhood, leading to her unapologetic willingness to extinguish human life in the relentless pursuit of unchecked violent ambition
• The deliberate contrast between the forceful verb "dash'd" and the delicate nature of "brains" Serves as a poignant symbol reflecting Lady Macbeth's character .Despite her seemingly fragile exterior, she harbours a strong desire to instigate violence and chaos
• notably, her choice of targeting the vulnerable "brains" of infants Signifies a recognition of both the paramount importance and extreme fragility of human existence. Yet this is ironic, as the very organ she seeks to disrupt - her unborn child's brain, the seat of morality and reason - becomes the locus of her own downfall
