Macbeth Act 1, Scene 3

At first Macbeth can hardly believe what the witches tell him, and even when the prophecy comes true he is a bit hesitant to believe it. At last, however, Macbeth does come to admire the idea of being King. Readers can tell that he becomes slightly obsessed and engulfed in the idea judging by the tone in the lines stating, "Two truths are told, As happy prologues to the welling act of the imperial theme." In Macbeth's closing lines to the scene, he implies that they will just have to wait a while and see what happens.
