C) - the reference to a heart being 'white' connotes purity, peace, and, in Lady Macbeth's opinion, weakness. Though they are both guilty of the murder (their hands are both red with blood), Lady Macbeth seems to have no regret or guilt, and is ashamed of her husband for having such feelings. It can easily be argued that she is in fact the driving force behind most of Macbeth's actions

i think the answer is C
