what is the imagery in this passage

“Out, damned spot! Out, I say!—One, two. Why, then, ’tis time to do ’t. Hell is murky! Fie, my lord, fie! A soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can \call our power to account?Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him." (3.1.49-65) Lady Macbeth

The imagery is bloody to say the least..... we can envision a strong and willful woman demeaning her husband for his reaction to bloodshed...... Lady Macbeth belittles him incessantly.
