I don't believe that this quotation is really classified as a riddle as it implies the truth, that Macbeth should beware of Macduff who will battle against him, killing Macbeth. The quotation clearly states that Macbeth is to be aware of Macduff and the harm that he will bring to him. From my comprehension of the play, Macduff set off to England where he will join forces with King Edward's army with Malcolm, to gain a strong forceful army that will invade and close in on Macbeth. The purpose of Macduff going after Macbeth is to remove him from the throne and bring back all truth and loyalty to Scotland. Macduff and Malcolm wish to seek revenge for the good King Duncan, Banquo and all of Scotland to end the reign of the fake and disloyal Macbeth. Macbeth should take warning from the witches who have said this riddle and be as prepared as possible to protect himself- although he does not have many more supporters that can back him up. Macbeth does not deserve to live as he has tricked and killed so many of the important people that once looked at him as a heroic and brave figure. He deserves the same as he has done to all that he has plotted against.
