Lady Macbeth calls Macbeth a coward

"What beast was't then/ That made you break this enterprise to me?/ When you durst do it, then you were a man;/ And to be more than what you were, you would/ Be so much more the man. Nor time not place/ Did then adhere, and yet you would make both./ They have made themselves, and that their fitness now/ Does unmake you" (317).

• Lady Macbeth says her husband is not a real man since he backed down on his word, shows that she has power
