In this scene, Duncan, Malcolm, Donaldbain and Lennox are talking to a dying soldier. Duncan requests who he is and gets a reply of an injured sergeant. After a while of dialogue, the sergeant comes to a conclusion that Macbeth deserves the name of ‘brave’. The sergeant is then swapped out of the scene for Ross.
