Some of the words that are related to blood include birth, bloody, cold, death, evil, flow, gore, guilt, guts, hate, health, heart, kill, kinship, murder, red, sad, and stab. The word blood is associated in the book because Macbeth kills Duncan, gets the murderers to kill Banquo and Macduff’s family. It comes to place because Banquo, Duncan, Lady Macbeth, Lady Macduff, Lady Macduff’s son, and Macbeth die. The word blood points to evil and guilt because the Macbeth household plans the killings and ask the murderers to kill each character that Macbeth wants dead. When someone dies, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth begin to feel guilty for their actions and decide to cover things up by washing off blood and putting on a different outfit. They also wipe blood on the guards, that way others will think that someone else pulled off the killings.
