Select the correct text in the passage.
In this excerpt from act IV of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, identify two biblical allusions.
MALCOLM: What I believe, I'll wail; What know, believe; and what I can redress, As I shall find the time to friend, I will. What you have spoke, it may be so perchance. [ This tyrant, whose sole name blisters our tongues, Was once thought honest: you have loved him well; ] He hath not touch'd you yet. I am young; but something You may deserve of him through me; and wisdom [ To offer up a weak, poor, innocent lamb To appease an angry god. ] MACDUFF: I am not treacherous. MALCOLM: But Macbeth is.[ A good and virtuous nature may recoil In an imperial charge. ] But I shall crave your pardon; That which you are, my thoughts cannot transpose; [ Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell: Though all things foul would wear the brows of grace, ] Yet grace must still look so. MACDUFF: I have lost my hopes.

I would say that the first would be 'To offer up a weak, poor, innocent lamb To appease an angry god.' which alludes to the sacrifice of lambs, and later of Jesus, in atonement for sins. Then the second is 'Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell' referring to Lucifer (the devil) being a fallen angel.
