Macbeth

Does anyone have an essay/can give me an idea of what to write for an English lit question ; 'How does Shakespeare present the attitudes of Macbeth and Banquo towards the supernatural?'
Focus on the main points you want to write about and then flesh it out. Some key points are Banquos initial disbelief of the witches when they first meet and the rest is easier to focus on Macbeth- how easily he believes the witches initially and how he relies on the witches by going back to them.
Give loads of examples and quotes and add context- about how witches were believed in at the time and were hunted and believed to be in contact with the devil so it shows how weird it was for Macbeth to outright believe
