And fill me from the crown to the toe top-full

Of direst cruelty!"

black and deep __________"

Why is the line "So foul and fair a day I have not seen" said by Macbeth in Act I Scene III an example of dramatic irony?

• Macbeth quotes the evil witches, fulfilling their prophecy without even knowing it, although the readers/audience do

• Macbeth is saying that things are good and bad at the same time.

• Macbeth is making Duncan angry by saying this.

• It is not an example of dramatic irony.
