MACBETH: "Let's briefly put on manly readiness / And meet i' th' hall together."
--"Macbeth", Act 2. Sc. 3, lines 157 & 158
***
(You see people dressed in 11th century clothes in a castle courtyard in Scotland -- In the background is Act 2. Sc. 3 from the play "Macbeth". Lady Macbeth is laying on the ground in a 'faint', Macbeth, Lennox, Macduff, Donalbain, Malcolm and Banquo are all in the background, playing out the scene. Suddenly Macbeth steps forward for an aside with the audience while the others continue with the scene.)
MACBETH:
"Hey there, Macbeth here, speaking to you from the 11th century AD. I just wanted to let you know, that having three strange witches making prophecies about you being a Thane of Cawdor and a 'King hereafter', your wife encouraging you to kill your cousin and you actually going through on it, can cause a lot of stress."Because of that, I use 'Manly Readiness Deodorant' to keep my enemies from smelling the fear, for who is a more dangerous enemy than kin?
"So, when Kings are dropping all around you and heirs are fleeing the country, use 'Manly Readiness Deodorant' and stay spring fresh while everything else around you smells like it hasn't been washed in at least a year!"
