In Act I, Shakespeare has the Sergeant state that in bombarding the enemies of Scotland, Macbeth and Banquo "meant to bathe in reeking wounds, / Or memorise another Golgotha"

How does this allusion to Golgotha, the site of Jesus's crucifixion, affect the opening of the play?

A. It helps Shakespeare show that Macbeth is well-read and intelligent, which makes audiences admire him.

B. It helps Shakespeare convey the brutality and cruelty that Macbeth exhibited on the battlefield, thereby quickly establishing his character's traits.

C. It lets Shakespeare suggest that Macbeth humbly sacrificed himself on the battlefield, thus making him a more sympathetic figure.

D. It allows Shakespeare to depict Macbeth as a figure whose faith guides his efforts, so his later behavior is especially unexpected.

the tone of the passage is sympathetic to the forbidden love of romeo and juliet. the nurse plays a significant role in the play. she is responsible for making their meeting again possible. additionally, there is a sense of warning in the choice of words of the nurse. she seems to be authoritative when she calls romeo "scurvy knave", and at the same time the fact that she addresses to him as "sir" reflects respect. the nurse is "vexed", this word describes her confused state of mind. on the one hand, she finds romeo a fine and eloquent man, but on the other, it is thought that man's nature forces men to try to trick women.
