Lady Macbeth reflects on the emptiness of her life, her losses, and the impending death, highlighting her profound sense of misfortune.

And fare thee well: for I have lived long enough: my way of life is fall’n into the sear, the yellow leaf; and that which should accompany old age, as honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, I must not look to have; but, in their stead, curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not. Seyton!
