Again, it thunders in Scotland, and the witches meet.  They ask each other where they have been.  One has been killing swine.  Another met a sailor's wife, who was eating chestnuts.  She had asked the sailor's wife for some, but the woman denied her.  The witch knew that her husband was bound for Aleppo aboard a ship called the ''Tiger'', and cursed that sailor to become tempest-tossed and dried, and reduced to  a thumb, which the first witch now carries with her.  As she finishes her story, a drum sounds, and Macbeth has arrived with his friend, Banquo.

Again, it thunders in Scotland, and the witches meet.  They ask each other where they have been.  One has been killing swine.  Another met a [[sailor]]'s wife, who was eating chestnuts.  She had asked the sailor's wife for some, but the woman denied her.  The witch knew that her husband was bound for Aleppo aboard a ship called the ''Tiger'', and cursed that sailor to become tempest-tossed and dried, and reduced to  a thumb, which the first witch now carries with her.  As she finishes her story, a drum sounds, and Macbeth has arrived with his friend, Banquo.
    
He observes, "so foul and fair a day I have not seen."  Banquo notices the witches and asks what they are - they do not seem to be anything familiar, and they could be woman, except they are bearded.  The witches only reply to hail Macbeth as Thane of Glamis, Thane of Cawdor, and King of Scotland, though he is only aware that he is Thane of Glamis.  Banquo, confused, asks them what he is, and they hail him:  "Lesser than Macbeth and greater," the first says.  "Not so happy, yet much happier," the second says.  "Thou shalt get kings, though thou be none.  So all hail Macbeth and Banquo!" proclaims the third.  Macbeth asks them how he could be Thane of Cawdor when the Thane is a living and worthy gentleman, but the witches disappear like bubbles.
