In this scene Macbeth returns to the weird sisters and boldly demands to be shown a series of apparitions that tell his future. The first apparition is the disembodied head of a fighter, who seems to warn Macbeth of a bloody revenge at the hands of Macduff. The second is a blood coverd child who comforts Macbeth with the news he cannot be killed by any man “of woman born.” The third is a child wearing a crown, who promises that Macbeth cannot lose in battle until Birnam wood physically moves towards his stronghold in Dunsinane.
