Q
“I shall be counselled”
“my duties”
“forever knit”
A
“I shall be counselled” He is willing to be advised and tempted by Macbeth, which shows he’s franchised – wants to retain the privileges he has gained from loyalty to the king and this may change to new king. States that “my duties” are “forever knit” to Macbeth. He has shifted his loyalties and allegiance to Macbeth rapidly. Therefore, it is clear that his loyalty is not fixed – to any king, but rather, he is loyal only to serve himself.
