myself （As I perchance hereafter shall think meet To put an antic
disposition on）； That you； at such times seeing me； never shall； With arms
encumb'red thus； or this head…shake； Or by pronouncing of some doubtful
phrase； As 'Well； well； we know；' or 'We could； an if we would；' Or 'If we
list to speak；' or 'There be； an if they might；' Or such ambiguous giving out；
to note That you know aught of me… this is not to do； So grace and mercy
at your most need help you； Swear。 Ghost。 ＇beneath＇ Swear。＇They swear。＇
Ham。 Rest； rest； perturbed spirit！ So； gentlemen； With all my love I do
commend me to you； And what so poor a man as Hamlet is May do t'
express his love and friending to you； God willing； shall not lack。 Let us
go in together； And still your fingers on your lips； I pray。 The time is out
of joint。 O cursed spite That ever I was born to set it right！ Nay； come； let's
go together。Exeunt。

THE TRAGEDY OF HAMLET； PRINCE OF DENMARK
SCENE I。 Elsinore。 A room in the house of
Polonius。
Enter Polonius and Reynaldo。
Pol。 Give him this money and these notes； Reynaldo。 Rey。 I will； my
lord。 Pol。 You shall do marvell's wisely； good Reynaldo； Before You visit
him； to make inquire Of his behaviour。 Rey。 My lord； I did intend it。 Pol。
Marry； well said； very well said。 Look you； sir； Enquire me first what
Danskers are in Paris； And how； and who； what means； and where they
keep； What company； at what expense； and finding By this
encompassment and drift of question That they do know my son； come
you more nearer Than your particular demands will touch it。 Take you； as
'twere； some distant knowledge of him； As thus； 'I know his father and his
friends； And in part him。' Do you mark this； Reynaldo？ Rey。 Ay； very well；
my lord。 Pol。 'And in part him； but；' you may say； 'not well。 But if't be he I
mean； he's very wild Addicted so and so'； and there put on him What
forgeries you please； marry； none so rank As may dishonour him… take
heed of that； But； sir； such wanton； wild； and usual slips As are
companions noted and most known To youth and liberty。 Rey。 As gaming；
my lord。 Pol。 Ay； or drinking； fencing； swearing； quarrelling； Drabbing。
You may go so far。 Rey。 My lord； that would dishonour him。 Pol。 Faith； no；
as you may season it in the charge。 You must not put another scandal on
him； That he is open to incontinency。 That's not my meaning。 But breathe
his faults so quaintly That they may seem the taints of liberty； The flash
and outbreak of a fiery mind； A savageness in unreclaimed blood； Of
general assault。 Rey。 But； my good lord… Pol。 Wherefore should you do
this？ Rey。 Ay； my lord； I would know that。 Pol。 Marry； sir； here's my drift；
And I believe it is a fetch of warrant。 You laying these slight sullies on my
son As 'twere a thing a little soil'd i' th' working； Mark you； Your party in
converse； him you would sound； Having ever seen in the prenominate
crimes The youth you breathe of guilty； be assur'd He closes with you in
this consequence： 'Good sir；' or so； or 'friend；' or 'gentleman'… According to
the phrase or the addition Of man and country… Rey。 Very good； my lord。

Pol。 And then； sir； does 'a this… 'a does… What was I about to say？ By the
mass； I was about to say something！ Where did I leave？ Rey。 At 'closes in
the consequence；' at 'friend or so；' and gentleman。' Pol。 At 'closes in the
consequence'… Ay； marry！ He closes thus： 'I know the gentleman。 I saw him
yesterday； or t'other day； Or then； or then； with such or such； and； as you
say； There was 'a gaming； there o'ertook in's rouse； There falling out at
tennis'； or perchance； 'I saw him enter such a house of sale；' Videlicet； a
brothel； or so forth。 See you now… Your bait of falsehood takes this carp of
truth； And thus do we of wisdom and of reach； With windlasses and with
assays of bias； By indirections find directions out。 So； by my former
lecture and advice； Shall you my son。 You have me； have you not？ Rey。
My lord； I have。 Pol。 God b' wi' ye； fare ye well！ Rey。 Good my
lord！＇Going。＇ Pol。 Observe his inclination in yourself。 Rey。 I shall； my lord。
Pol。 And let him ply his music。 Rey。 Well； my lord。 Pol。 Farewell！ Exit
Reynaldo。
Enter Ophelia。
How now； Ophelia？ What's the matter？ Oph。 O my lord； my lord； I
have been so affrighted！ Pol。 With what； i' th' name of God？ Oph。 My lord；
as I was sewing in my closet； Lord Hamlet； with his doublet all unbrac'd；
No hat upon his head； his stockings foul'd； Ungart'red； and down…gyved to
his ankle； Pale as his shirt； his knees knocking each other； And with a look
so piteous in purport As if he had been loosed out of hell To speak of
horrors… he comes before me。 Pol。 Mad for thy love？ Oph。 My lord； I do
not know； But truly I do fear it。 Pol。 What said he？ Oph。 He took me by
the wrist and held me hard； Then goes he to the length of all his arm； And；
with his other hand thus o'er his brow； He falls to such perusal of my face
As he would draw it。 Long stay'd he so。 At last； a little shaking of mine
arm； And thrice his head thus waving up and down； He rais'd a sigh so
piteous and profound As it did seem to shatter all his bulk And end his
being。 That done； he lets me go； And with his head over his shoulder turn'd
He seem'd to find his way without his eyes； For out o' doors he went
without their help And to the last bended their light on me。 Pol。 Come； go
with me。 I will go seek the King。 This is the very ecstasy of love； Whose
violent property fordoes itself And leads the will to desperate undertakings

As oft as any passion under heaven That does afflict our natures。 I am
sorry。 What； have you given him any hard words of late？ Oph。 No； my
good lord； but； as you did command； I did repel his letters and denied His
access to me。 Pol。 That hath made him mad。 I am sorry that with better
heed and judgment I had not quoted him。 I fear'd he did but trifle And
meant to wrack thee； but beshrew my jealousy！ By heaven； it is as proper
to our age To cast beyond ourselves in our opinions As it is common for
the younger sort To lack discretion。 Come； go we to the King。 This must
be known； which； being kept close； might move More grief to hide than
hate to utter love。 Come。Exeunt。

SCENE II。 Elsinore。 A room in the Castle。
Flourish。 ＇Enter King and Queen； Rosencrantz and Guildenstern； cum
aliis。
King。 Welcome； dear Rosencrantz and Guildenstern。 Moreover that we
much did long to see you； The need we have to use you did provoke Our
hasty sending。 Something have you heard Of Hamlet's transformation。 So
I call it； Sith nor th' exterior nor the inward man Resembles that it was。
What it should be； More than his father's death； that thus hath put him So
much from th' understanding of himself； I cannot dream of。 I entreat you
