why not to kill his king. He at first thinks that he cannot kill him

The National Endowment For The Arts

thinking about killing Duncan to become King. But with the witches help
this idea was thrust to the front of his mind and he thinks that he should
kill Duncan because the witches say that it is his destiny. I am sure that
