In Act 5, Scene 1, Lady Macbeth is presented as consumed by guilt. Her inability to sleep could symbolise her feelings of guilt. Her desire to continually wash her hands could symbolise her guilt. Macbeth prepares for battle but is very isolated. The English army use branches from Birnam wood as camouflage so they can approach Macbeth’s castle.
