Act 2 Scene 4

In this scene pathetic fallacy is used a lot to show how the death of King Duncan has gone against the natural order. Pathetic Fallacy is when humans may do something and nature reflects their actions. One instance where pathetic fallacy happened is when ” A falcon, towering in her pride of place, Was by a mousing owl hawk’d at and killed.” A falcon is supposed to be the apex predator and it is very odd that it was killed by its prey. This defies the way nature normally acts.
