man�察  �what   lenten   entertainment   the   players   shall   receive   from   you。   We 

coted them on the way�察�and hither are they coming to offer you service。 

Ham。   He   that   plays   the   king   shall   be   welcome´   his   Majesty   shall   have 

tribute of me�察�the adventurous knight shall use his foil and target�察�the lover 

shall   not   sigh   gratis�察  �the   humorous   man   shall   end   his   part   in   peace�察  �the 

clown shall make those laugh whose lungs are tickle o' th' sere�察�and the 

lady   shall   say   her   mind   freely�察  �or   the   blank   verse   shall   halt   for't。   What 

players are they�拭�Ros。 Even those you were wont to take such delight in�察�

the    tragedians     of   the   city。  Ham。     How     chances      it  they   travel�拭   �Their 

residence�察�both in reputation and profit�察�was better both ways。 Ros。 I think 

their inhibition comes by the means of the late innovation。 Ham。 Do they 

hold   the   same   estimation   they   did   when   I   was   in   the   city�拭�Are   they   so 

follow'd�拭�Ros。 No indeed are they not。 Ham。 How comes it�拭�Do they grow 

rusty�拭�Ros。 Nay�察�their endeavour keeps in the wonted pace�察�but there is�察�sir�察�

an eyrie of children�察�little eyases�察�that cry out on the top of question and 

are   most   tyrannically   clapp'd   for't。   These   are   now   the   fashion�察  �and   so 

berattle the common stages ��so they call them�� that many wearing rapiers 

are   afraid   of   goosequills   and   dare   scarce   come   thither。   Ham。   What�察  �are 

they   children�拭     �Who     maintains     'em�拭   �How     are   they   escoted�拭    �Will   they 

pursue      the  quality    no   longer    than    they   can    sing�拭  �Will    they   not   say 

afterwards�察  �if   they   should   grow   themselves   to   common   players   ��as   it   is 

most   like�察  �if   their   means   are   no   better���察  �their   writers   do   them   wrong   to 

make   them   exclaim   against   their   own   succession。   Ros。   Faith�察  �there   has 

been much to do on both sides�察�and the nation holds it no sin to tarre them 

to controversy。 There was�察�for a while�察�no money bid for argument unless 

the poet and the player went to cuffs in the question。 Ham。 Is't possible�拭�

Guil。 O�察�there has been much throwing about of brains。 Ham。 Do the boys 

carry it away�拭�Ros。 Ay�察�that they do�察�my lord´ Hercules and his load too。 

Ham。 It is not very strange�察�for my uncle is King of Denmark�察�and those 

that   would   make   mows   at   him  while   my   father lived   give   twenty�察  �forty�察�

fifty�察  �a   hundred   ducats   apiece   for   his   picture   in   little。   'Sblood�察  �there   is 

something in this more than natural�察�if philosophy could find it out。

Elsinore。 Your hands�察�come� �Th' appurtenance of welcome is fashion and 

ceremony。   Let   me   comply   with   you   in   this   garb�察  �lest   my   extent   to   the 

players ��which I tell you must show fairly outwards�� should more appear 

like entertainment than yours。 You are welcome。 But my uncle´father and 

aunt´mother are deceiv'd。 Guil。 In what�察�my dear lord�拭�Ham。 I am but mad 

north´north´west。   When   the   wind   is   southerly   I   know   a   hawk   from   a 

handsaw。Enter Polonius。 

     Pol。 Well be with you�察�gentlemen� �Ham。 Hark you�察�Guildenstern´ and 

you too´ at each ear a hearer� �That great baby you see there is not yet out 

of his swaddling clouts。 Ros。 Happily he's the second time come to them�察�

for they say an old man is twice a child。 Ham。 I will prophesy he comes to 

tell me of the players。 Mark it。´You say right�察�sir�察�a Monday morning�察�twas 

so indeed。 Pol。  My lord�察 �I have news   to tell   you。 Ham。 My  lord�察�I   have 

news to tell you。 When Roscius was an actor in Rome´ Pol。 The actors are 

come   hither�察  �my   lord。   Ham。   Buzz�察  �buzz�   �Pol。   Upon   my   honour´   Ham。 

Then came each actor on his ass´ Pol。 The best actors in the world�察�either

tragical´historical�察  �tragical´comical´historical´pastoral�察  �scene   individable�察�

or poem unlimited。 Seneca cannot be too heavy�察�nor Plautus too light。 For 

the law of writ and the liberty�察�these are the only men。 Ham。 O Jephthah�察�

judge of Israel�察�what a treasure hadst thou� �Pol。 What treasure had he�察�my 

lord�拭�Ham。 Why�察�

       'One fair daughter�察�and no more��The which he loved passing well。' 

     Pol。   ��aside�А  �Still   on  my   daughter。   Ham。   Am   I   not   i'   th'   right�察  �old 

Jephthah�拭�Pol。 If you call me Jephthah�察�my lord�察�I have a daughter that I 

love passing well。 Ham。 Nay�察�that follows not。 Pol。 What follows then�察�my 

lord�拭�Ham。 Why�察�

       and then�察�you know�察�'It came to pass�察�as most like it was。'

I saw thee last。 Com'st' thou to' beard me in Denmark�拭� What�察�my young 

lady and mistress�拭�By'r Lady�察�your ladyship is nearer to heaven than when 

I saw you last by the altitude of a chopine。 Pray God your voice�察�like a 

piece of uncurrent gold�察�be not crack'd within the ring。´ Masters�察�you are 

all welcome。 We'll e'en to't like French falconers�察�fly at anything we see。 

We'll have a speech straight。 Come�察�give us a taste of your quality。 Come�察�

a passionate   speech。 1。   Play。 What   speech�察  �my good   lord�拭�Ham。  I   heard 

thee speak me a speech once�察�but it was never acted�察�or if it was�察�not above 

once�察�for the play�察�I remember�察�pleas'd not the million�察�'twas caviary to the 

general�察�but it was ��as I receiv'd it�察�and others�察�whose judgments in such 

matters   cried   in   the   top   of   mine��   an   excellent   play�察  �well   digested   in   the 

scenes�察�set down with as much modesty as cunning。 I remember one said 

there were no sallets in the lines to make the matter savoury�察�nor no matter 

in   the   phrase   that   might   indict   the   author   of   affectation�察  �but   call'd   it   an 

honest method�察�as wholesome as sweet�察�and by very much more handsome 

than fine。 One speech in't I chiefly lov'd。 'Twas AEneas' tale to Dido�察�and 

thereabout of it especially where he speaks of Priam's slaughter。 If it live 

in your memory�察�begin at this line´ let me see�察�let me see�此�

       'The rugged Pyrrhus�察�like th' Hyrcanian beast´' 

     'Tis not so�察�it begins with Pyrrhus�此�

       'The rugged Pyrrhus�察�he whose sable arms��Black as his purpose�察�did 

the night resembleWhen he lay couched in the ominous horse��Hath now 

this dread and black complexion smear'dWith heraldry more dismal。 Head 

to footNow is be total gules�察�horridly trick'dWith blood of fathers�察�mothers�察�

daughters�察�sons��Bak'd and impasted with the parching streets��That lend a 

tyrannous and a damned lightTo their lord's murther。 Roasted in wrath and 

fire��And thus o'ersized with coagulate gore��With eyes like carbuncles�察�the 

hellish PyrrhusOld grandsire Priam seeks。' 

     So�察  �proceed   you。   Pol。   Fore   God�察  �my   lord�察  �well   spoken�察  �with   good 

accent and gooddiscretion。 

     1。 Play。 'Anon he finds him�察�Striking too short at Greeks。 His antique 

sword�察�Rebellious to his arm�察�lies where it falls�察�Repugnant to command。 

Unequal match'd�察�Pyrrhus at Priam drives�察�in rage strikes wide�察�But with 

the   whiff   and   wind   of   his   fell   sword   Th'   unnerved   father   falls。  Then

senseless Ilium�察�Seeming to feel this blow�察�with flaming top Stoops to his 

base�察  �and   with   a   hideous   crash   Takes   prisoner   Pyrrhus'   ear。   For   lo�   �his 

sword�察�Which was declining on the milky head Of reverend Priam�察�seem'd 

i' th' air to stick。 So�察�as a painted tyrant�察�Pyrrhus stood�察�And�察�like a neutral 

to   his   will   and   matter�察  �Did   nothing。   But�察  �as   we   often   see�察  �against   some 

storm�察  �A   silence   in   the   heavens�察  �the   rack   stand   still�察  �The   bold   winds 

speechless�察�and the orb below As hush as death´ anon the dreadful thunder 

Doth rend the region�察�so�察�after Pyrrhus' pause�察�Aroused vengeance sets him 

new awork�察�And never did the Cyclops' hammers fall On Mars's armour�察�

forg'd   for   proof   eterne�察  �With   less   remorse   than   Pyrrhus'   bleeding   sword 

Now   falls   on   Priam。   Out�察  �out�察  �thou   strumpet   Fortune� �All   you   gods�察  �In 

general synod take away her power�察�Break all the spokes and fellies from 

her wheel�察�And bowl the round nave down the hill of heaven�察�As low as to 

the fiends� �

     Pol。 This is too long。 Ham。 It shall to the barber's�察�with your beard。´ 

Prithee say  on。   He's   for   a   jig   or   a   tale   of   bawdry�察  �or   he   sleeps。   Say  on�察�

come to Hecuba。 

     1。 Play。 'But who�察�O who�察�had seen the mobled queen´' 

     Ham。 'The mobled queen'�拭�Pol。 That's good� �'Mobled queen' is good。 

     1。 Play。 'Run barefoot up and down�察�threat'ning the flames With bisson
