Macduff and Malcomn near Macbeth's castle hiding themselves behind branches and leading the messenger to announce their approach as that of a moving forest. Macbeth is immediately reminded of the witches' prophecy.

I pull in resolution and begin To doubt th' equivocation of the fiend That lies like truth. “Fear not, till Birnam wood Do come to Dunsinane”; and now a wood Comes toward Dunsinane.—Arm, arm, and out!— If this which he avouches does appear, There is nor flying hence nor tarrying here.
