Lady Macbeth
Lady Macbeth is respected by Macbeth, and the rest of the kingdom. King Duncan calls her "our honored hostess."

Lady Macbeth may have felt that losing her conscience for the deed was enough and that later the thought of the murder would just go away. That is not the result, though, because Macbeth and Lady Macbeth often cannot go to sleep, and if they do, they experience terrifying dreams. Lady Macbeth is still able to maintain herself...
