Because brave Macbeth, well he deserves that
name,
Outshining fortune, with his brandished sword,
Which was
steaming with blood in the hot use of it,
Like power’s hero, Carved out his
way through them until he faced Macdonwald; And he never shook hands, said goodbye to
him, Until he cut him in half, from his navel to his chin, And put Macdonwald’s head on
top of our fort’s
wall.

Macbeth is portrayed as
competent on the battlefield. Duncan calls him his "valiant cousin! Worthy gentleman!"
No doubt, Duncan is impressed with Macbeth's skills as a soldier. As a warrior, none can
compare to Macbeth's great ability to fight.

Duncan highly esteems Macbeth and puts him in a honorable position. King Duncan has
total faith in Macbeth as a worthy soldier.
