Macbeth Glossary - Thunder, lightning or in rain Macbeth Glossary First Witch. When shall we three meet again In thunder, lightning, or in rain? (1-2) Here the Witches are not asking about the type of weather in which they should next meet, but when they should next meet. Interestingly, these lines follow the punctuation set by an early editor of the play. In Shakespeare's First Folio (1623) , we have instead: When shall we three meet again? In Thunder, Lightning, or in Rain? Allan Park Paton, in The tragedy of Macbeth: according to the first folio explains: These lines are thus printed in the Folio of 1623, with a mark of interrogation after each, and, having the author's blotless manuscript before them, we cannot think it possible that Heminge and Condell could have allowed a mistake to occur in the printing of the very first line of the work, and must, therefore, believe that it is the Poet's mark of interrogation, religiously retained through the three succeeding Folios, which stands there.

Yet Sir Thomas Hanmer removed it, as if it were a slip on the part of the printer, and in all the modern editions that we are acquainted with, the lines run: When shall we three meet again In thunder, lightning, or in rain? which is a different thing. It seems to us that Shakespeare could not manage without the two marks of interrogation, odd as they look: that he found it necessary so to arrange the lines, to tell his meaning, which was: "All our meetings are in thunder, lightning, or in rain, when shall our next be?" not, "We meet sometimes under other elemental circumstances, but when shall we meet again in thunder, lightning, or in rain?" and this opportunity may be taken to note the importance of remembering, as we study the 1623 Folio, that, though occasionally confused through obvious misprinting, we have before us there, Shakespeare's pointing, as well as his words.

With these words Macbeth begins. This dark tragedy opens with three of the most memorable characters in literature, the Weird Sisters, ugly evil hags, witches who stir their cauldron and conjure up curses and predictions ("Fair is foul and foul is fair." I, i,12). They set a brooding stage for their encounter with Macbeth, a Scottish warlord who aspires to be King. They agree to meet again later that evening on the heath which Macbeth will cross as he returns from battle. During this meeting they set into motion a course of events that will lead to Macbeth's tragic downfall. This trio of howling, shrieking witches, who cackle with glee over their evil plans, will return later in the play to complete the final marriage of chaos and murder.

Will it be in thunder, lightning, or rain? SECOND WITCH When the hurly-burly’s done, When the battle’s lost and won. SECOND WITCH We’ll meet when the noise of the battle is over, when one side has won and the other side has lost. 5 That will be ere the set of sun. THIRD WITCH That will happen before sunset. FIRST WITCH William Shakespeare – Macbeth Act 1 Scene 1 | Genius According to J. A. MacCulloch (1929): The AS wyrd is represented in English and Scots by “weird,” e.g., “he maun dree his weird” (suffer his destiny). Some link with Teutonic Fate-goddesses is therefore to be found in the “three weird sisters” of our earlier literature. Holinshed relates that three women “in straunge and ferly apparell, resembling creatures of an elder world,” met Macbeth and Banquo and foretold their destinies. These women were either the weird sisters, that is the goddesses of destinie, or else some nimphs or feiries, endued with knowledge or prophecie by their Nicromanticall science.

They are Shakespeare’s witches or weird sisters, the Fatae or Parcae of Boece’s History. A story of “The weird Sisters” is mentioned in The Complaynt of Scotland, but it is now unknown, and the additions to Warner’s Albion’s England (106 A.D.) speak of “the weird elves,” as Spenser has “three fatal Impes” in his Ruines of Time, and Chaucer “the fatal sustrin” (sisters), akin to “the weird lady of the woods” in Percy’s ballad, who prophesied from a cave about Lord Albert’s child, then stole him away and nurtured him. Whatever the ultimate origin of the Norns and similar dispensers of destiny may have been, they had human counterparts in actual prophetesses or magic-wielders, like the old Scots “spae-wife,” who foretold an infant’s future, or the Norse Spakona or Volva. In some references to these it is not easy to say where the human aspect ends and the supernatural begins.

As Grimm says: “…prophesying, inspiring and boon-bestowing women were always supposed to pass through the country, knocking at the houses of those whom they would bless, and tales of travelling gifting sorceresses were much in vogue all through the Middle Ages.” Hidden This page is accessible to Verified artists on the song Locked This song has been locked and is considered "done."

Saturday, 9 June 2012 When Shall We Three Meet Again? As you can see in the pictures above and below, this phrase "When Will We Three Meet Again?" or "When Will We 3 Meet Again?" was some kind of meme from about 1890 to 1910. The reference is to the first lines of Shakespeare's "Macbeth" (i.e., Act 1, Sc. 1, ll.1–5), spoken by the three witches (full scene at the end of this post): "When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightning, or in rain?" "When the hurlyburly's done, When the battle's lost and won." "That will be ere the set of sun." Presumably the answer to this quote-question is "soon" or "when the job is done" or "after the battle" (for a soldier I guess). But what has me puzzled is why is there always a donkey/mule/ass in the picture? Any suggestions? (And FWIIW, I am not the only person puzzled !) UPDATES AT THE END OF THIS POST * * * * * {Thunder and lightning.

Enter three WITCHES.} First Witch When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightning, or in rain? Second Witch When the battle's lost and won. Third Witch That will be ere the set of sun. First Witch There to meet with Macbeth. First Witch Fair is foul, and foul is fair: Hover through the fog and filthy air. {Exeunt.} UPDATES! A colleague at Monash writes: "I think it's a comic insult: the general form seems to be that two donkeys invite the reader to join them, thus implying that the reader is also a donkey. As a catchphrase it might have originated in one of the many travesties of Macbeth that were so unaccountably popular in the C19." Terry L. Meyers writes: “The third donkey, as your collegue suggests, is surely the reader—and he has found an excellent example of a postcard which has a reflective panel in it, which makes this very clear.

Terry has also found a reference to this meme from 1868 in a journal/annual called The Child’s Friend If we look into a photograph shop window we are sure to see somewhere a picture of two poor donkeys, and underneath we read the startling question, ‘When shall we three meet again?’ What a take-in, is it not? What does it mean—that we are to be ashamed of being like a donkey? Why do people say ‘What a donkey you are!’ when you have done some very stupid thing? Because donkeys are supposed to be stupid. I will tell you a little about our four-footed friends, and then you can judge for yourself about poor Neddy and his vices.

[…] Let us remember that to give poor Neddy kind words and good treatment is to help him up in the world, and that the sooner he is helped up the sooner we shall cease to think of him as all that is stubborn and stupid, and the sooner we shall lose the reason for minding the old saying—‘When shall we three meet again?’ [Cousin Louise, “The Donkey,” The Child’s Friend 4 (1868): 41–42.] Of course, this doesn't really answer the question of why the question asked by Shakespeare's first witches involves donkeys, but if this meme was "old" in 1868 it does suggest the answer lies earlier in the nineteenth century than I thought. MORE UPDATES! Clare G. and Ken R. have come to my rescue. Both point out that there is a reference to the "We Three" joke in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. So, a lot earlier than the nineteenth century! As Clare explained, there is a reference to it Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase & Fable: We three.

"Did you never see the picture of We Three?" asks Sir Andrew Aguecheek (Shakespeare: Twelfth Night, II, iii) – not meaning himself, Sir Toby Belch, and the clown, but referring to a public-house sign of Two Loggerheads with the inscription, 'We three loggerheads be," the third being the spectator. I don't know why I didn't go straight to Brewer's. The internet has made me lazy, Brewer's Dictionary was my first stop for anything like this for years: I have three editions, spanning a century of revisions and alterations, all very well-worn! But they are at work, of course, and it is a long weekend, and, like I said, the internet has made me lazy. But the answer he gives pretty-well nails it. Now that I know the meme exists in the Shakespeare cannon there should be no difficulty chasing up the folk and literary traditions. Everything in fact. I'll just go straight to the latest Arden edition of Twelfth Night. * * * * * But the thing that still puzzles me is the conflation of Macbeth and Twelfth Night. It is a witch who asks "When Will We Three Meet Again?" A witch talking to two other witches.

No donkeys in the entire play. No suggestion that the other two are donkeys, donkey-like or donkey-headed (like Bottom in A Mid-Summer Night's Dream). So, what gives? Perhaps the conflation can be explained only by the appropriateness of the question (unrelated in any way to context of Macbeth) to the "we three" meme. The fact that the quote has been detached from its context in this way is kind-of interesting. Lots of Shakespeare quotes have been detached in this way. I can't help wondering if it possible to identify the point at which the detaching and conflation occurred, but I don't really have the time to try to track it down, so it looks like this will remain one of life's little mysteries!

Doug Stuva | High School Teacher | (Level 1) Educator Emeritus Posted on July 20, 2010 at 4:51 PM In Shakespeare's Macbeth, the "Thunder and lightning" in the opening stage directions of the play don't, in themselves, "represent" anything. In other words, they're not symbols in themselves. They are more indicative of other aspects of the play; they contribute to other aspects. Together with the witches, the weather creates an eerie atmosphere that will pervade the play, and the First Witch, of course, references the weather, and particularly the weather to come, in her lines that open the play: When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightning, or in rain? This draws attention to the weather, and the weather is, or at least soon will be, highly suggestive. The day is stormy, as is the state of affairs in Scotland. The witches close the opening seen by again referencing the weather, but also by connecting the foul weather with the political affairs in Scotland, though this is only implied by this point: Fair is foul, and foul is fair, Hover through the fog and filthy air.

Macbeth unkowingly mimics the witches, due to the weather, in Act 1.3.39 when he enters the stage with Banquo: So foul and fair a day I have not seen. This connects Macbeth to the witches, and foreshadows things to come. During the course of the play, foul weather will contribute to the multiple meanings of the fair and foul statements (thanes that are assumed to be loyal are not, Lady Macbeth wants to be a man, Malcolm suspects Macduff of being a traitor when he is not, etc.), and become indicative of the unnatural way in which Macbeth gains power and keeps it. The weather, then, sets the stage for things to come. It contributes to theme and is indicative of the political situation in Scotland. It's difficult to see the witches meeting Macbeth and serving as catalysts for the murder of a king, the murder of Banquo, and the slaughter of Macduff's family, in bright, cheery sunshine. like 1 dislike 0
