1. The theme that is presented in act 5 is the downfall of Macbeth and his wife. Lady Macbeth is shown to gone crazy. The doctor doesn't know what to do with her condition. "This disease is beyond my practice. Yet I have known those which have walked in their sleep, who have died holily in their beds." 5.2.(62-64). Macbeth learns that an army is coming for him and he prepares for battle. "I'll fight till my bones my flesh be hacked. Give me my honor." 5.3.(38-39).
2. Image patterns in this is act is of sleep and death. Lady Macbeth is in a permanent state of sleep and finally speaks the truth out loud of what happened with the murders. She then kills herself. Macbeth is finally defeated by Macduff.
