In Act 4 Scene 1 of the Shakespearean play, Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] met with the three witches a second time. He wanted to know how secure his kingship would be. The witches let Macbeth know that he had nothing to fear as long as Birnam Wood didn't move to Dunsinane and as long as he didn't meet up with a man who hadn't been born of a woman. Both predictions seemed unlikely to Macbeth. He didn't consider the possible practical implementations of either prediction. For example, he didn't think of cutting off and carrying tree parts while marching. Neither did he think of the man who had to be delivered, not born, by Caesarian section from a dead mother.
