  SCENE I. A room in POLONIUS' house.

  Enter POLONIUS and REYNALDO

  LORD POLONIUS

  Give him this money and these notes, Reynaldo.

  REYNALDO

  I will, my lord.

  LORD POLONIUS

  You shall do marvellous wisely, good Reynaldo,

  Before you visit him, to make inquire

  Of his behavior.

  REYNALDO

  My lord, I did intend it.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Marry, well said; very well said. Look you, sir,

  Inquire 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?

  REYNALDO

  Ay, very well, my lord.

  LORD POLONIUS

  '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.

  REYNALDO

  As gaming, my lord.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Ay, or drinking, fencing, swearing, quarrelling,

  Drabbing: you may go so far.

  REYNALDO

  My lord, that would dishonour him.

  LORD POLONIUS

  '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.

  REYNALDO

  But, my good lord,--

  LORD POLONIUS

  Wherefore should you do this?

  REYNALDO

  Ay, my lord,

  I would know that.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Marry, sir, here's my drift;

  And I believe, it is a fetch of wit:

  You laying these slight sullies on my son,

  As 'twere a thing a little soil'd i' the 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 assured

  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.

  REYNALDO

  Very good, my lord.

  LORD POLONIUS

  And then, sir, does he this--he does--what was I

  about to say? By the mass, I was about to say

  something: where did I leave?

  REYNALDO

  At 'closes in the consequence,' at 'friend or so,'

  and 'gentleman.'

  LORD POLONIUS

  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?

  REYNALDO

  My lord, I have.

  LORD POLONIUS

  God be wi' you; fare you well.

  REYNALDO

  Good my lord!

  LORD POLONIUS

  Observe his inclination in yourself.

  REYNALDO

  I shall, my lord.

  LORD POLONIUS

  And let him ply his music.

  REYNALDO

  Well, my lord.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Farewell!

  Exit REYNALDO

  Enter OPHELIA

  How now, Ophelia! what's the matter?

  OPHELIA

  O, my lord, my lord, I have been so affrighted!

  LORD POLONIUS

  With what, i' the name of God?

  OPHELIA

  My lord, as I was sewing in my closet,

  Lord Hamlet, with his doublet all unbraced;

  No hat upon his head; his stockings foul'd,

  Ungarter'd, and down-gyved to his ancle;

  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.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Mad for thy love?

  OPHELIA

  My lord, I do not know;

  But truly, I do fear it.

  LORD POLONIUS

  What said he?

  OPHELIA

  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 raised 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 helps,

  And, to the last, bended their light on me.

  LORD POLONIUS

  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?

  OPHELIA

  No, my good lord, but, as you did command,

  I did repel his fetters and denied

  His access to me.

  LORD POLONIUS

  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 wreck 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.

  Exeunt

  SCENE II. A room in the castle.

  Enter KING CLAUDIUS, QUEEN GERTRUDE, ROSENCRANTZ, GUILDENSTERN, and Attendants

  KING CLAUDIUS

  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 call it,

  Sith nor the 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 the understanding of himself,

  I cannot dream of: I entreat you both,

  That, being of so young days brought up with him,

  And sith so neighbour'd to his youth and havior,

  That you vouchsafe your rest here in our court

  Some little time: so by your companies

  To draw him on to pleasures, and to gather,

  So much as from occasion you may glean,

  Whether aught, to us unknown, afflicts him thus,

  That, open'd, lies within our remedy.

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  Good gentlemen, he hath much talk'd of you;

  And sure I am two men there are not living

  To whom he more adheres. If it will please you

  To show us so much gentry and good will

  As to expend your time with us awhile,

  For the supply and profit of our hope,

  Your visitation shall receive such thanks

  As fits a king's remembrance.

  ROSENCRANTZ

  Both your majesties

  Might, by the sovereign power you have of us,

  Put your dread pleasures more into command

  Than to entreaty.

  GUILDENSTERN

  But we both obey,

  And here give up ourselves, in the full bent

  To lay our service freely at your feet,

  To be commanded.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  Thanks, Rosencrantz and gentle Guildenstern.

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  Thanks, Guildenstern and gentle Rosencrantz:

  And I beseech you instantly to visit

  My too much changed son. Go, some of you,

  And bring these gentlemen where Hamlet is.

  GUILDENSTERN

  Heavens make our presence and our practises

  Pleasant and helpful to him!

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  Ay, amen!

  Exeunt ROSENCRANTZ, GUILDENSTERN, and some Attendants

  Enter POLONIUS

  LORD POLONIUS

  The ambassadors from Norway, my good lord,

  Are joyfully return'd.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  Thou still hast been the father of good news.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Have I, my lord? I assure my good liege,

  I hold my duty, as I hold my soul,

  Both to my God and to my gracious king:

  And I do think, or else this brain of mine

  Hunts not the trail of policy so sure

  As it hath used to do, that I have found

  The very cause of Hamlet's lunacy.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  O, speak of that; that do I long to hear.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Give first admittance to the ambassadors;

  My news shall be the fruit to that great feast.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  Thyself do grace to them, and bring them in.

  Exit POLONIUS

  He tells me, my dear Gertrude, he hath found

  The head and source of all your son's distemper.

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  I doubt it is no other but the main;

  His father's death, and our o'erhasty marriage.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  Well, we shall sift him.

  Re-enter POLONIUS, with VOLTIMAND and CORNELIUS

  Welcome, my good friends!

  Say, Voltimand, what from our brother Norway?

  VOLTIMAND

  Most fair return of greetings and desires.

  Upon our first, he sent out to suppress

  His nephew's levies; which to him appear'd

  To be a preparation 'gainst the Polack;

  But, better look'd into, he truly found

  It was against your highness: whereat grieved,

  That so his sickness, age and impotence

  Was falsely borne in hand, sends out arrests

  On Fortinbras; which he, in brief, obeys;

  Receives rebuke from Norway, and in fine

  Makes vow before his uncle never more

  To give the assay of arms against your majesty.

  Whereon old Norway, overcome with joy,

  Gives him three thousand crowns in annual fee,

  And his commission to employ those soldiers,

  So levied as before, against the Polack:

  With an entreaty, herein further shown,

  Giving a paper

  That it might please you to give quiet pass

  Through your dominions for this enterprise,

  On such regards of safety and allowance

  As therein are set down.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  It likes us well;

  And at our more consider'd time well read,

  Answer, and think upon this business.

  Meantime we thank you for your well-took labour:

  Go to your rest; at night we'll feast together:

  Most welcome home!

  Exeunt VOLTIMAND and CORNELIUS

  LORD POLONIUS

  This business is well ended.

  My liege, and madam, to expostulate

  What majesty should be, what duty is,

  Why day is day, night night, and time is time,

  Were nothing but to waste night, day and time.

  Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit,

  And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes,

  I will be brief: your noble son is mad:

  Mad call I it; for, to define true madness,

  What is't but to be nothing else but mad?

  But let that go.

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  More matter, with less art.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Madam, I swear I use no art at all.

  That he is mad, 'tis true: 'tis true 'tis pity;

  And pity 'tis 'tis true: a foolish figure;

  But farewell it, for I will use no art.

  Mad let us grant him, then: and now remains

  That we find out the cause of this effect,

  Or rather say, the cause of this defect,

  For this effect defective comes by cause:

  Thus it remains, and the remainder thus. Perpend.

  I have a daughter--have while she is mine--

  Who, in her duty and obedience, mark,

  Hath given me this: now gather, and surmise.

  Reads

  'To the celestial and my soul's idol, the most

  beautified Ophelia,'--

  That's an ill phrase, a vile phrase; 'beautified' is

  a vile phrase: but you shall hear. Thus:

  Reads

  'In her excellent white bosom, these, & c.'

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  Came this from Hamlet to her?

  LORD POLONIUS

  Good madam, stay awhile; I will be faithful.

  Reads

  'Doubt thou the stars are fire;

  Doubt that the sun doth move;

  Doubt truth to be a liar;

  But never doubt I love.

  'O dear Ophelia, I am ill at these numbers;

  I have not art to reckon my groans: but that

  I love thee best, O most best, believe it. Adieu.

  'Thine evermore most dear lady, whilst

  this machine is to him, HAMLET.'

  This, in obedience, hath my daughter shown me,

  And more above, hath his solicitings,

  As they fell out by time, by means and place,

  All given to mine ear.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  But how hath she

  Received his love?

  LORD POLONIUS

  What do you think of me?

  KING CLAUDIUS

  As of a man faithful and honourable.

  LORD POLONIUS

  I would fain prove so. But what might you think,

  When I had seen this hot love on the wing--

  As I perceived it, I must tell you that,

  Before my daughter told me--what might you,

  Or my dear majesty your queen here, think,

  If I had play'd the desk or table-book,

  Or given my heart a winking, mute and dumb,

  Or look'd upon this love with idle sight;

  What might you think? No, I went round to work,

  And my young mistress thus I did bespeak:

  'Lord Hamlet is a prince, out of thy star;

  This must not be:' and then I precepts gave her,

  That she should lock herself from his resort,

  Admit no messengers, receive no tokens.

  Which done, she took the fruits of my advice;

  And he, repulsed--a short tale to make--

  Fell into a sadness, then into a fast,

  Thence to a watch, thence into a weakness,

  Thence to a lightness, and, by this declension,

  Into the madness wherein now he raves,

  And all we mourn for.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  Do you think 'tis this?

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  It may be, very likely.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Hath there been such a time--I'd fain know that--

  That I have positively said 'Tis so,'

  When it proved otherwise?

  KING CLAUDIUS

  Not that I know.

  LORD POLONIUS

  [Pointing to his head and shoulder]

  Take this from this, if this be otherwise:

  If circumstances lead me, I will find

  Where truth is hid, though it were hid indeed

  Within the centre.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  How may we try it further?

  LORD POLONIUS

  You know, sometimes he walks four hours together

  Here in the lobby.

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  So he does indeed.

  LORD POLONIUS

  At such a time I'll loose my daughter to him:

  Be you and I behind an arras then;

  Mark the encounter: if he love her not

  And be not from his reason fall'n thereon,

  Let me be no assistant for a state,

  But keep a farm and carters.

  KING CLAUDIUS

  We will try it.

  QUEEN GERTRUDE

  But, look, where sadly the poor wretch comes reading.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Away, I do beseech you, both away:

  I'll board him presently.

  Exeunt KING CLAUDIUS, QUEEN GERTRUDE, and Attendants

  Enter HAMLET, reading

  O, give me leave:

  How does my good Lord Hamlet?

  HAMLET

  Well, God-a-mercy.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Do you know me, my lord?

  HAMLET

  Excellent well; you are a fishmonger.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Not I, my lord.

  HAMLET

  Then I would you were so honest a man.

  LORD POLONIUS

  Honest, my lord!

  HAMLET

  Ay, sir; to be honest, as this world goes, is to be

  one man picked out of ten thousand.

  LORD POLONIUS

  That's very true, my lord.

  HAMLET

  For if the sun breed maggots in a dead dog, being a

  god kissing carrion,--Have you a daughter?

  LORD POLONIUS

  I have, my lord.

  HAMLET

  Let her not walk i' the sun: conception is a

  blessing: but not as your daughter may conceive.

  Friend, look to 't.
