Logs, Logs, Logs and "Our royal master's murdered"

He climbed trees: the spirit of a leopard within him.
His body was lean, lithe, muscular, and quite trim.
His fingernails dug deep into each bark's outer rim
This talent he'd picked up started out as a mere whim.
He dexterously scaled the evergreens, limb by limb.
But oh no! he missed a branch, fell till the lights got dim.
Now we dedicate our bouldering to the life of dear Jim.
Time to get quizzed on the second Act of "Macbeth"
Study the quotes well and say a prayer under your breath.
