In this excerpt from act I, Scene II of Macbeth, what can be inferred from Banquo's response to the witches' prophecy?
BANQUO:
That, trusted home,
Might yet enkindle you unto the crown,
Besides the Thane of Cawdor. But 'tis strange:
And oftentimes to win us to our harm,
The instruments of darkness tell us truths;
Win us with honest trifles, to betray's
In deepest consequence.-
Cousins, a word, I pray you.
