Hw #2 Macbeth

"I have no spur to prick the sides of my intent, but only vaulting ambition, which o'erleaps(overleaps) itself and falls on the other."--Macbeth (Act I, Scene 7, lines 25-28)

1)Put this sentence into your own words.(What is he trying to say?)
2)Why is it important for the audience to know this is a soliloquy? What if it were not?
3)Based on this quote, what can you predict MAY happen in Act II and WHY?

(Hint: look at vocabulary you do not know and interpret the sentence piece by piece)
