Abstract

Offers a stronger argument for Georg Buchmann's contention that the term `Milke' in Lady Macbeth's description of her husband's nature in the drama `Macbeth,' carries Christian resonances. Scriptural passage pointed to by Buchmann; Dispute over the exact implication of `take my Milke for Gall.'
