 Helen Faucit was critiqued by Henry Morley , a professor of English literature in University College , London , who thought the actress " too demonstrative and noisy " in the scenes before Duncan 's murder with the " Come , you spirits " speech " simply spouted " and its closing " Hold ! Hold ! " shouted in a " most <unk> manner . " In the " I have given suck " speech , he thought Faucit " poured out " the speech in a way that recalled the " scold at the door of a gin @-@ shop . " Faucit , he believed , was " too essentially feminine , too exclusively gifted with the art of expressing all that is most beautiful and graceful in womanhood , to succeed in inspiring anything like awe and terror . " He thought her talents more congenial to the second phase of the character , and found her " admirably good " in the banquet scene . Her sleepwalking scene , however , was described as having " the air of a too well @-@ studied dramatic recitation . "
