    In Act III, Scene VI, a discussion takes place between  Lennox and another Lord.  They are discussing the fact that Scotland, under Macbeth's rule is suffering.  The country is ruled by a Tyrant and Lennox is hopeful, as he says in this passage, that  Malclom with the help of the English King can take the throne away from Macbeth and return it to its rightful heir, Malcolm.

    Fly to the court of England and unfold
    His message ere he come, that a swift blessing
    May soon return to this our suffering country
    Under a hand accurs'd!
    Lord. I'll send my prayers with him"!
