he uses this way of speaking to drive further the message that Macbeth is a very concerning individual one instance in which this occurs is when Lennox declares, " what 'twere to kill a father; so should Fleance" (l. 21). his use of sarcasm in this quote highlights the absurdity of Macbeth's claim— how could such an innocent child murder his father? Through this, we as an audience can tell that people are not so foolish as to believe such a ridiculous story. Also concerning sarcasm, Lennox shows us the cloud of suspicion MAcbeth is consumed undr due to Duncan’s death. Lennox says, “who cannot want the thought how monstrous it was for Malcolm and for Donalbain to kill their gracious father: damned fact!” (ll. 9-11), which equates to him calling out the unlikeliness of the alleged family murder. Lennox’s sarcasm entirely promotes the fact that Macbeth’s claims have been incredibly unbelievable, and that his tyrannical, traitorous way will be brought to an end
