THE ROYAL SHAKESPEARE COMPANY
HAMLET
00:00:36.929 --> 00:00:38.834
- Who's there?
- Nay, answer me:
00:00:38.941 --> 00:00:40.681
stand, and unfold yourself.
00:00:40.682 --> 00:00:42.165
Long live the king!
00:00:42.245 --> 00:00:44.273
- Bernardo?
- He.
00:00:44.349 --> 00:00:46.161
You come most carefully upon your hour.
00:00:46.162 --> 00:00:50.551
'Tis now struck twelve;
get thee to bed, Francisco.
00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:52.755
For this relief much thanks:
00:00:52.756 --> 00:00:56.037
'tis bitter cold,
And I am sick at heart.
00:00:57.519 --> 00:01:00.849
Have you had quiet guard?
00:01:01.300 --> 00:01:03.036
Not a mouse stirring.
00:01:03.650 --> 00:01:06.175
Well, good night.
00:01:06.254 --> 00:01:07.277
Stand, ho! Who's there?
00:01:07.278 --> 00:01:10.346
Friends to this ground.
And liegemen to the Dane.
00:01:10.347 --> 00:01:13.207
- Give you good night.
- O, farewell, honest soldier:.
00:01:14.681 --> 00:01:16.285
Who hath relieved you?
00:01:16.286 --> 00:01:18.161
Bernardo has my place.
00:01:18.848 --> 00:01:20.582
Give you good night.
00:01:23.129 --> 00:01:25.367
Holla! Bernardo!
00:01:25.368 --> 00:01:28.504
Say,
What, is Horatio there?
00:01:30.175 --> 00:01:34.942
- A piece of him.
- Welcome, Horatio: welcome, good Marcellus.
00:01:34.943 --> 00:01:38.329
What, has this thing
appear'd again to-night?
00:01:38.330 --> 00:01:40.567
I have seen nothing.
00:01:40.597 --> 00:01:43.003
Horatio says 'tis but our fantasy,
00:01:43.024 --> 00:01:44.843
And will not let belief take hold of him
00:01:44.844 --> 00:01:48.003
Touching this dreaded sight,
twice seen of us:
00:01:48.316 --> 00:01:50.517
Therefore I have entreated him along
with us
00:01:50.518 --> 00:01:52.805
To watch the minutes of this night;
00:01:53.049 --> 00:01:56.766
That if again this apparition come,
00:01:57.002 --> 00:01:59.172
He may approve our eyes and speak to it.
00:01:59.173 --> 00:02:00.626
Tush, tush, 'twill not appear.
00:02:00.627 --> 00:02:03.141
Than let us once again assail your ears,
00:02:03.142 --> 00:02:05.673
That are so fortified against our story
00:02:05.674 --> 00:02:07.742
What we have two nights seen.
00:02:07.743 --> 00:02:11.764
Well, let us hear Bernardo
speak of this.
00:02:11.765 --> 00:02:13.095
Last night of all,
00:02:13.096 --> 00:02:15.875
When yond same star
that's westward from the pole
00:02:15.876 --> 00:02:18.515
Had made his course to illume
that part of heaven
00:02:18.516 --> 00:02:21.049
Where now it burns, Marcellus and myself,
00:02:21.050 --> 00:02:22.844
The bell then beating one,--
00:02:22.845 --> 00:02:25.205
Peace, break thee off;
00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:29.281
look, where it comes again!
00:02:29.282 --> 00:02:31.817
In the same figure,
like the king that's dead.
00:02:31.818 --> 00:02:34.282
Thou art a scholar;
speak to it, Horatio.
00:02:34.283 --> 00:02:36.770
Looks it not like the king? mark it, Horatio.
00:02:36.771 --> 00:02:39.857
Most like: it harrows me
with fear and wonder.
00:02:40.221 --> 00:02:43.001
It would be spoke to.
Question it, Horatio.
00:02:43.033 --> 00:02:46.844
What art thou that usurp'st
this time of night,
00:02:46.845 --> 00:02:48.593
Together with that fair and warlike form
00:02:48.594 --> 00:02:52.113
In which the majesty of buried Denmark
Did sometimes march?
00:02:52.114 --> 00:02:54.363
by heaven I charge thee, speak!
00:02:54.364 --> 00:02:56.552
It is offended.
See, it stalks away!
00:02:56.553 --> 00:03:00.489
Stay! speak, speak!
I charge thee, speak!
00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:03.067
'Tis gone,
00:03:03.253 --> 00:03:05.000
and will not answer.
00:03:06.030 --> 00:03:08.749
Before my God, I might not this believe
00:03:08.750 --> 00:03:11.450
Without the sensible and true avouch
Of mine own eyes.
00:03:11.451 --> 00:03:14.989
Thus twice before,
and jump at this dead hour,
00:03:14.990 --> 00:03:17.143
With martial stalk hath he gone by our watch.
00:03:17.144 --> 00:03:19.517
In what particular thought to work I know not;
00:03:19.802 --> 00:03:22.342
But in the gross and scope of my opinion,
00:03:22.489 --> 00:03:25.091
This bodes some strange eruption to our state.
00:03:25.092 --> 00:03:30.781
Good now, stand close,
and tell me, he that knows,
00:03:31.156 --> 00:03:34.329
Why this same strict and most observant watch
00:03:34.330 --> 00:03:37.092
So nightly toils the subject of the land,
00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:40.692
And why such daily cast of brazen cannon,
00:03:40.693 --> 00:03:45.079
And foreign mart for implements of war;
What might be toward,
00:03:45.180 --> 00:03:47.090
to this sweaty haste
00:03:47.281 --> 00:03:50.779
Doth make the night joint-labourer with the day:
00:03:50.272 --> 00:03:52.280
Who is't that can inform me?
00:03:52.281 --> 00:03:53.894
That can I;
00:03:54.565 --> 00:03:57.076
At least, the whisper goes so.
00:03:58.987 --> 00:04:00.684
Our last king,
00:04:01.168 --> 00:04:04.295
Whose image even but now appear'd to us,
00:04:04.581 --> 00:04:07.248
Was, as you know, by Fortinbras of Norway,
00:04:07.249 --> 00:04:10.778
Dared to the combat;
in which our valiant Hamlet--
00:04:10.779 --> 00:04:12.389
Did slay this Fortinbras;
00:04:12.390 --> 00:04:15.825
who does his forfeit, with his life,
all these his lands
00:04:15.842 --> 00:04:18.668
Now, sir, young Fortinbras,
00:04:19.031 --> 00:04:20.622
Of unimproved mettle hot and full,
00:04:20.623 --> 00:04:22.689
Hath in the skirts of Norway here and there
00:04:22.690 --> 00:04:25.152
Shark'd up a list of lawless resolutes,
00:04:25.153 --> 00:04:27.502
to recover of us,
those foresaid lands
00:04:27.503 --> 00:04:31.465
So by his father lost:
and this, I take it,
00:04:31.527 --> 00:04:34.110
Is the main motive of our preparations,
00:04:34.266 --> 00:04:36.901
The source of this our watch
and the chief head
00:04:36.902 --> 00:04:39.964
Of this post-haste and romage in the land.
00:04:40.412 --> 00:04:43.160
But soft, behold!
lo, where it comes again!
00:04:43.161 --> 00:04:46.195
I'll cross it, though it blast me.
Stay, illusion!
00:04:46.196 --> 00:04:48.566
If thou hast any sound, or use of voice,
Speak to me:
00:04:48.567 --> 00:04:50.145
If thou art privy to thy country's fate,
00:04:50.146 --> 00:04:52.849
Which, happily, foreknowing may avoid,
O, speak!
00:04:56.678 --> 00:04:58.508
Stay, and speak!
00:04:58.909 --> 00:05:00.980
Stop it, Marcellus.
00:05:00.981 --> 00:05:03.415
Shall I strike at it?
Do, if it will not stand.
00:05:03.416 --> 00:05:05.543
'Tis here!
'Tis here!
00:05:08.168 --> 00:05:09.606
'Tis gone!
00:05:12.471 --> 00:05:15.322
We do it wrong,
being so majestical,
00:05:15.323 --> 00:05:17.292
To offer it the show of violence;
00:05:17.293 --> 00:05:22.775
For it is, as the air, invulnerable,
00:05:24.141 --> 00:05:26.481
And our vain blows malicious mockery.
00:05:26.482 --> 00:05:29.805
It was about to speak,
when the cock crew.
00:05:29.806 --> 00:05:31.666
And then it started like a guilty thing
00:05:31.667 --> 00:05:33.370
Upon a fearful summons.
00:05:33.371 --> 00:05:35.262
It faded on the crowing of the cock.
00:05:36.340 --> 00:05:39.101
Some say that ever 'gainst
that season comes
00:05:39.568 --> 00:05:42.196
Wherein our Saviour's birth
is celebrated,
00:05:42.256 --> 00:05:46.419
The bird of dawning singeth all night long:
00:05:46.944 --> 00:05:51.040
And then, they say,
no spirit dares stir abroad;
00:05:51.340 --> 00:05:55.758
The nights are wholesome;
then no planets strike,
00:05:55.967 --> 00:06:00.413
No fairy takes,
nor witch hath power to charm,
00:06:01.318 --> 00:06:04.166
So hallow'd and so gracious
is the time.
00:06:04.239 --> 00:06:08.194
So have I heard and do
in part believe it.
00:06:09.633 --> 00:06:10.341
But, look...
00:06:13.042 --> 00:06:14.642
the morn, in russet mantle clad,
00:06:14.677 --> 00:06:18.179
Walks o'er the dew
of yon high eastward hill:
00:06:23.402 --> 00:06:28.341
Break we our watch up;
and by my advice,
00:06:28.833 --> 00:06:31.191
Let us impart
what we have seen to-night
00:06:31.192 --> 00:06:35.995
Unto young Hamlet;
for, upon my life,
00:06:36.651 --> 00:06:39.989
This spirit, dumb to us,
00:06:41.434 --> 00:06:42.802
will speak to him.
00:06:47.788 --> 00:06:51.566
Though yet of Hamlet
our dear brother's death
00:06:51.567 --> 00:06:53.416
The memory be green,
00:06:55.401 --> 00:06:57.148
and that it us befitted
00:06:57.149 --> 00:07:01.174
To bear our hearts in grief
and our whole kingdom
00:07:01.175 --> 00:07:04.934
To be contracted in one brow of woe,
00:07:05.410 --> 00:07:10.065
Yet so far hath discretion
fought with nature
00:07:10.066 --> 00:07:13.442
That we with wisest sorrow
think on him,
00:07:14.006 --> 00:07:17.253
Together with remembrance of ourselves.
00:07:17.535 --> 00:07:22.208
Therefore our sometime sister,
now our queen,
00:07:22.209 --> 00:07:26.179
The imperial jointress
to this warlike state,
00:07:26.436 --> 00:07:31.265
Have we, as 'twere with a defeated joy,--
00:07:31.866 --> 00:07:36.059
With an auspicious and a dropping eye,
00:07:36.060 --> 00:07:40.183
With mirth in funeral
and with dirge in marriage,
00:07:40.447 --> 00:07:44.164
In equal scale weighing delight and dole,--
00:07:45.211 --> 00:07:46.945
Taken to wife.
00:07:50.092 --> 00:07:51.710
Nor have we herein barr'd
00:07:51.711 --> 00:07:55.051
Your better wisdoms, which have freely gone
00:07:55.052 --> 00:08:00.053
With this affair along.
For all, our thanks.
00:08:00.153 --> 00:08:06.090
Now follows, that you know,
young Fortinbras,
00:08:06.474 --> 00:08:09.589
Holding a weak supposal of our worth,
00:08:09.590 --> 00:08:15.319
Or thinking by our late
dear brother's death
00:08:15.400 --> 00:08:18.958
Our state to be disjoint
and out of frame,
00:08:19.153 --> 00:08:22.160
He hath not fail'd to pester us with message,
00:08:22.161 --> 00:08:25.365
Importing the surrender of those lands
00:08:25.366 --> 00:08:28.774
Lost by his father,
with all bonds of law,
00:08:28.775 --> 00:08:33.097
To our most valiant brother.
00:08:33.989 --> 00:08:35.551
So much for him.
00:08:35.552 --> 00:08:37.623
Thus much the business is.
00:08:38.400 --> 00:08:40.299
We have here writ to Norway
00:08:40.301 --> 00:08:43.289
uncle of young Fortinbras,--
00:08:43.465 --> 00:08:46.238
that is suppress his nephiew further march
00:08:46.239 --> 00:08:49.194
and threatening enterprise
against our state.
00:08:49.504 --> 00:08:52.604
And we here dispatch
you, good Cornelia
00:08:52.744 --> 00:08:57.463
and Voltimand, as our ambasadores
to old Norway.
00:08:57.464 --> 00:09:00.613
In that and all things
will we show our duty.
00:09:00.614 --> 00:09:03.649
We doubt it nothing:
heartily farewell.
00:09:09.252 --> 00:09:15.246
And now, Laertes,
what's the news with you?
00:09:16.086 --> 00:09:19.879
You told us of some suit;
what is't, Laertes?
00:09:23.180 --> 00:09:26.002
You cannot speak of reason to the Dane,
00:09:26.003 --> 00:09:27.297
And loose your voice.
00:09:27.298 --> 00:09:28.878
My dread lord,
00:09:31.181 --> 00:09:34.878
Your leave and favour to return to France;
00:09:34.924 --> 00:09:37.347
From whence though willingly
I came to Denmark,
00:09:37.348 --> 00:09:39.534
To show my duty in your coronation,
00:09:39.597 --> 00:09:42.566
Yet now, I must confess, that duty done,
00:09:42.567 --> 00:09:45.923
My thoughts and wishes bend again
toward France
00:09:46.165 --> 00:09:49.805
And bow them to your gracious leave and pardon.
00:09:49.806 --> 00:09:53.227
Have you your father's leave?
What says Polonius?
00:09:53.228 --> 00:09:57.702
He hath, my lord,
wrung from me my slow leave
00:09:57.703 --> 00:09:59.790
I do beseech you,
give him leave to go.
00:09:59.791 --> 00:10:03.955
Take thy fair hour, Laertes;
time be thine,
00:10:04.853 --> 00:10:07.726
And thy best graces spend it at thy will!
00:10:10.479 --> 00:10:12.123
But now,
00:10:12.700 --> 00:10:15.975
our cousin Hamlet, and our son,--
00:10:15.976 --> 00:10:18.574
A little more than kin, and less than kind.
00:10:20.476 --> 00:10:23.711
How is it that the clouds
still hang on you?
00:10:23.712 --> 00:10:26.258
Not so, my lord;
I am too much i' the sun.
00:10:26.259 --> 00:10:30.436
Good Hamlet,
cast thy nighted colour off,
00:10:30.437 --> 00:10:34.352
And let thine eye
look like a friend on Denmark.
00:10:34.573 --> 00:10:36.930
Do not for ever with thy vailed lids
00:10:36.931 --> 00:10:39.998
Seek for thy noble father in the dust:
00:10:40.182 --> 00:10:43.600
Thou know'st 'tis common;
all that lives must die,
00:10:43.601 --> 00:10:46.265
Passing through nature to eternity.
00:10:46.266 --> 00:10:49.172
Ay, madam, it is common.
If it be,
00:10:49.173 --> 00:10:52.423
Why seems it so particular with thee?
00:10:52.424 --> 00:10:55.219
Seems, madam! nay it is;
I know not 'seems.'
00:10:55.937 --> 00:10:58.389
'Tis not alone my inky cloak, good mother,
00:10:58.390 --> 00:11:00.890
Nor customary suits of solemn black,
00:11:00.891 --> 00:11:03.428
Together with all forms,
moods, shapes of grief,
00:11:03.429 --> 00:11:06.201
That can denote me truly:
these indeed seem,
00:11:06.328 --> 00:11:09.096
For they are actions
that a man might play:
00:11:09.097 --> 00:11:11.735
But I have that within which passeth show;
00:11:12.484 --> 00:11:15.374
These but the trappings and the suits of woe.
00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:19.826
'Tis sweet and commendable
in your nature, Hamlet,
00:11:19.827 --> 00:11:22.482
To give these mourning
duties to your father:
00:11:22.483 --> 00:11:27.326
But, you must know,
your father lost a father;
00:11:27.327 --> 00:11:32.064
That father lost, lost his,
and the survivor bound
00:11:32.065 --> 00:11:34.733
In filial obligation for some term
00:11:34.734 --> 00:11:37.285
To do obsequious sorrow.
00:11:37.640 --> 00:11:41.751
but to persever
In obstinate condolement is
00:11:41.752 --> 00:11:45.607
a course
Of impious stubbornness
00:11:47.531 --> 00:11:49.748
'tis unmanly grief;
00:11:50.202 --> 00:11:52.183
I pray you, throw to earth
00:11:52.184 --> 00:11:56.308
this unprevailing woe,
and think of us
00:11:56.309 --> 00:12:00.222
As of a father:
for let the world take note,
00:12:00.846 --> 00:12:01.989
You are the most immediate
00:12:02.024 --> 00:12:05.642
to our throne;
And with no less nobility of love
00:12:05.643 --> 00:12:07.559
Than that which dearest father
bears his son,
00:12:09.009 --> 00:12:12.147
Do I impart toward you.
00:12:16.028 --> 00:12:19.796
For your intent
In going back to school in...
00:12:20.097 --> 00:12:22.129
- Wittenberg.
- Wittenberg,
00:12:22.130 --> 00:12:24.471
It is most retrograde to our desire.
00:12:24.472 --> 00:12:27.074
And we beseech you,
bend you to remain here,
00:12:27.075 --> 00:12:29.449
in the cheer and comfort of our eye,
00:12:29.450 --> 00:12:35.190
Our chiefest courtier, cousin, and our son.
00:12:35.191 --> 00:12:38.383
Let not thy mother lose her prayers,
00:12:40.177 --> 00:12:41.902
Hamlet.
00:12:42.198 --> 00:12:45.511
I pray thee, stay with us;
go not to Wittenberg.
00:12:45.512 --> 00:12:47.909
I shall in all my best obey you, madam.
00:12:48.098 --> 00:12:52.096
Why, 'tis a loving and a fair reply!
00:12:53.973 --> 00:12:56.794
Be as ourself in Denmark.
00:12:58.160 --> 00:12:59.527
Madam, come;
00:12:59.528 --> 00:13:03.323
This gentle and unforced
accord of Hamlet
00:13:03.324 --> 00:13:07.011
Sits smiling to my heart:
in grace whereof,
00:13:07.012 --> 00:13:09.676
No jocund health that Denmark
drinks to-day,
00:13:09.677 --> 00:13:12.183
But the great cannon
to the clouds shall tell,
00:13:12.184 --> 00:13:17.761
Re-speaking earthly thunder.
Come away.
00:13:35.488 --> 00:13:37.506
O, that this too
00:13:38.313 --> 00:13:42.656
too solid flesh would melt...
00:13:47.136 --> 00:13:49.010
Thaw
00:13:49.839 --> 00:13:52.701
and resolve itself into a dew!
00:13:59.386 --> 00:14:02.325
Or that the Everlasting had not fix'd
00:14:02.667 --> 00:14:05.260
His canon 'gainst self-slaughter!
00:14:05.261 --> 00:14:06.930
O God!
00:14:08.573 --> 00:14:10.245
God!
00:14:17.871 --> 00:14:19.573
How weary,
00:14:19.870 --> 00:14:21.543
stale,
00:14:22.766 --> 00:14:24.930
flat and unprofitable,
00:14:24.931 --> 00:14:27.797
Seem to me all the uses
of this world!
00:14:27.798 --> 00:14:30.326
Fie on't! ah fie!
00:14:32.714 --> 00:14:37.704
'tis an unweeded garden,
That grows to seed;
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:43.576
things rank and gross in nature
Possess it merely.
00:14:50.995 --> 00:14:53.168
That it should come to this!
00:14:53.931 --> 00:14:56.244
But two months dead:
00:14:56.827 --> 00:14:59.138
nay, not so much, not two:
00:15:01.921 --> 00:15:04.584
So excellent a king;
that was, to this,
00:15:04.585 --> 00:15:07.047
Hyperion to a satyr;
00:15:08.805 --> 00:15:10.617
so loving to my mother
00:15:10.618 --> 00:15:13.526
That he might not beteem
the winds of heaven
00:15:13.527 --> 00:15:16.806
Visit her face too roughly.
Heaven and earth!
00:15:18.617 --> 00:15:20.476
Must I remember?
00:15:23.303 --> 00:15:25.384
why, she would hang on him,
00:15:25.572 --> 00:15:27.412
As if increase of appetite had grown
00:15:27.413 --> 00:15:30.304
By what it fed on:
and yet, within a month--
00:15:30.305 --> 00:15:32.286
Let me not think on't--
00:15:32.287 --> 00:15:34.304
Frailty, thy name is woman!--
00:15:34.305 --> 00:15:38.554
A little month,
or ere those shoes were old
00:15:38.555 --> 00:15:41.993
With which she follow'd
my poor father's body,
00:15:42.428 --> 00:15:47.021
Like Niobe, all tears:
why she, even she--
00:15:47.022 --> 00:15:50.114
O, God! a beast,
that wants discourse of reason,
00:15:50.115 --> 00:15:52.053
Would have mourn'd longer--
00:15:52.958 --> 00:15:55.553
married with my uncle,
00:15:59.944 --> 00:16:04.007
My father's brother,
but no more like my father
00:16:05.240 --> 00:16:08.211
Than I to Hercules:
within a month...
00:16:11.523 --> 00:16:14.946
Ere yet the salt of most
unrighteous tears
00:16:15.460 --> 00:16:18.739
Had left the flushing
in her galled eyes,
00:16:18.740 --> 00:16:20.229
She married.
00:16:22.488 --> 00:16:24.824
O, most wicked speed, to post
00:16:24.864 --> 00:16:29.822
With such dexterity
to incestuous sheets!
00:16:33.834 --> 00:16:37.912
It is not nor it cannot come to good.
00:16:43.222 --> 00:16:48.489
But break, my heart;
for I must hold my tongue.
00:16:51.567 --> 00:16:54.135
Hail to your lordship!
I am glad to see you well:
00:16:55.385 --> 00:16:57.144
Horatio,
00:16:57.487 --> 00:16:59.289
or I do forget myself.
00:16:59.290 --> 00:17:02.502
The same, my lord,
and your poor servant ever.
00:17:02.503 --> 00:17:06.082
Sir, my good friend;
I'll change that name with you:
00:17:06.134 --> 00:17:08.739
And what make you from Wittenberg,
Horatio? Marcellus!
00:17:08.740 --> 00:17:10.112
My good lord--
I am very glad to see you.
00:17:10.159 --> 00:17:12.093
Good even, sir.
00:17:12.127 --> 00:17:14.027
What, in faith, make you from Wittenberg?
00:17:14.175 --> 00:17:17.863
We'll teach you to drink
deep ere you depart.
00:17:17.864 --> 00:17:20.173
My lord, I came to see
your father's funeral.
00:17:20.174 --> 00:17:22.609
I pray thee, do not mock me,
fellow-student;
00:17:22.611 --> 00:17:24.579
I think it was to see
my mother's wedding.
00:17:24.580 --> 00:17:28.852
Indeed, my lord, it follow'd hard upon.
Thrift, thrift, Horatio!
00:17:29.111 --> 00:17:30.360
the funeral baked meats
00:17:30.361 --> 00:17:32.738
Did coldly furnish forth
the marriage tables.
00:17:34.282 --> 00:17:36.110
My father!--
00:17:36.760 --> 00:17:39.221
methinks I see my father.
00:17:41.113 --> 00:17:42.830
Where, my lord?
00:17:43.726 --> 00:17:45.736
In my mind's eye, Horatio.
00:17:46.753 --> 00:17:48.925
I saw him once;
00:17:51.455 --> 00:17:53.423
he was a goodly king.
00:17:54.844 --> 00:17:57.456
He was a man,
take him for all in all,
00:17:59.024 --> 00:18:01.144
I shall not look upon his like again.
00:18:05.205 --> 00:18:06.549
My lord,
00:18:08.706 --> 00:18:11.329
I think I saw him yesternight.
Saw? who?
00:18:11.330 --> 00:18:13.296
My lord, the king your father.
00:18:16.612 --> 00:18:18.208
The king my father!
00:18:18.576 --> 00:18:22.495
Season your admiration
With an attent ear, till I may deliver,
00:18:22.496 --> 00:18:26.003
Upon the witness of these gentlemen,
This marvel to you.
00:18:26.004 --> 00:18:27.841
For God's love, let me hear.
00:18:27.842 --> 00:18:30.283
Two nights together
had these gentlemen,
00:18:30.284 --> 00:18:32.636
Marcellus and Bernardo,
on their watch,
00:18:32.637 --> 00:18:35.214
In the dead vast and middle of the night,
00:18:35.215 --> 00:18:37.171
Been thus encounter'd.
00:18:37.307 --> 00:18:38.982
A figure like your father,
00:18:38.983 --> 00:18:40.885
Armed at point exactly, cap-a-pe,
00:18:40.886 --> 00:18:43.531
Appears before them,
and with solemn march
00:18:43.532 --> 00:18:46.574
Goes slow and stately by them.
This to me
00:18:46.575 --> 00:18:49.341
In dreadful secrecy impart they did;
00:18:49.434 --> 00:18:51.307
And I with them the third night
kept the watch;
00:18:51.308 --> 00:18:56.199
Where, as they had deliver'd,
The apparition comes:
00:18:56.200 --> 00:18:59.512
I knew your father;
These hands are not more like.
00:18:59.595 --> 00:19:00.490
But where was this?
00:19:00.491 --> 00:19:03.736
My lord, upon the platform
where we watch'd.
00:19:03.948 --> 00:19:05.025
Did you not speak to it?
00:19:05.026 --> 00:19:07.760
My lord, I did; But answer made it none:
'Tis very strange.
00:19:07.761 --> 00:19:10.480
As I do live, my honour'd lord,
'tis true;
00:19:10.481 --> 00:19:12.244
And we did think it writ down in our duty
00:19:12.245 --> 00:19:15.385
To let you know of it.
Indeed.
00:19:16.009 --> 00:19:19.575
indeed, sirs, but this troubles me.
00:19:20.192 --> 00:19:22.136
Hold you the watch to-night?
We do, my lord.
00:19:22.137 --> 00:19:23.838
Arm'd, say you?
Arm'd, my lord.
00:19:23.873 --> 00:19:25.376
From top to toe?
My lord, from head to foot.
00:19:25.411 --> 00:19:26.620
Then saw you not his face?
00:19:26.621 --> 00:19:30.542
O, yes, my lord;
he wore his beaver up.
00:19:34.967 --> 00:19:36.218
What, look'd he frowningly?
00:19:36.219 --> 00:19:38.607
A countenance more in sorrow
than in anger.
00:19:38.608 --> 00:19:40.606
Pale or red?
Nay, very pale.
00:19:40.734 --> 00:19:43.023
And fix'd his eyes upon you?
Most constantly.
00:19:43.024 --> 00:19:46.983
I would I had been there.
It would have much amazed you.
00:19:47.053 --> 00:19:50.047
Very like, very like.
00:19:50.518 --> 00:19:51.564
Stay'd it long?
00:19:51.565 --> 00:19:54.073
While one with moderate
haste might tell a hundred.
00:19:54.074 --> 00:19:55.034
Longer, longer.
00:19:55.035 --> 00:19:56.237
Not when I saw't.
00:19:56.238 --> 00:19:58.659
His beard was grizzled--no?
00:19:59.551 --> 00:20:02.533
It was, as I have seen it in his life,
00:20:03.267 --> 00:20:05.392
A sable silver'd.
00:20:06.768 --> 00:20:09.703
I will watch to-night;
Perchance 'twill walk again.
00:20:09.704 --> 00:20:10.828
I warrant it will.
00:20:10.829 --> 00:20:12.391
If it assume my noble father's person,
00:20:12.392 --> 00:20:14.625
I'll speak to it,
though hell itself should gape
00:20:14.626 --> 00:20:17.162
And bid me hold my peace.
I pray you all,
00:20:17.163 --> 00:20:19.016
If you have hitherto
conceal'd this sight,
00:20:19.017 --> 00:20:21.519
Let it be tenable in your silence still;
00:20:21.724 --> 00:20:23.311
And whatsoever else shall hap to-night,
00:20:23.312 --> 00:20:25.517
Give it an understanding,
but no tongue:
00:20:26.632 --> 00:20:28.237
I will requite your loves.
00:20:28.612 --> 00:20:29.874
So, fare you well:
00:20:29.875 --> 00:20:32.250
Upon the platform, 'twixt eleven and twelve,
I'll visit you.
00:20:32.251 --> 00:20:34.130
Our duty to your honour.
00:20:36.912 --> 00:20:40.233
My father's spirit in arms!
all is not well;
00:20:42.160 --> 00:20:44.299
I doubt some foul play:
00:20:44.750 --> 00:20:46.547
would the night were come!
00:20:47.327 --> 00:20:49.485
Till then sit still, my soul:
00:20:49.486 --> 00:20:51.641
foul deeds will rise,
00:20:53.077 --> 00:20:56.202
Though all the earth o'erwhelm them,
to men's eyes.
00:20:59.803 --> 00:21:02.327
My necessaries are embark'd:
00:21:02.548 --> 00:21:04.035
farewell:
00:21:05.360 --> 00:21:08.326
And, sister,
as the winds give benefit
00:21:08.327 --> 00:21:11.099
And convoy is assistant,
do not sleep,
00:21:11.100 --> 00:21:12.827
But let me hear from you.
00:21:12.828 --> 00:21:14.640
Do you doubt that?
00:21:20.170 --> 00:21:24.016
For Hamlet and the trifling
of his favour,
00:21:24.750 --> 00:21:28.062
Hold it a fashion and a toy in blood,
00:21:28.606 --> 00:21:31.856
A violet in the youth of primy nature,
00:21:32.098 --> 00:21:36.201
Forward, not permanent,
sweet, not lasting,
00:21:36.202 --> 00:21:40.170
The perfume and suppliance of a minute;
No more.
00:21:40.171 --> 00:21:45.120
No more but so?
Think it no more. Perhaps he loves you now,
00:21:45.121 --> 00:21:48.434
And now no soil nor cautel doth besmirch
00:21:48.435 --> 00:21:51.701
The virtue of his will:
but you must fear,
00:21:51.808 --> 00:21:54.902
His greatness weigh'd,
his will is not his own;
00:21:54.903 --> 00:21:57.676
For he himself is subject to his birth:
00:21:58.514 --> 00:22:02.045
He may not, as unvalued persons do,
00:22:02.046 --> 00:22:05.026
Carve for himself;
for on his choice depends
00:22:05.027 --> 00:22:08.421
The safety and health
of this whole state;
00:22:08.782 --> 00:22:11.344
And therefore must his choice be circumscribed
00:22:11.345 --> 00:22:15.105
Unto the voice and yielding of that body
Whereof he is the head.
00:22:15.106 --> 00:22:17.251
Then if he says he loves you,
00:22:18.870 --> 00:22:22.748
It fits your wisdom so far to believe it
00:22:22.749 --> 00:22:25.446
As he in his particular act and place...
00:22:25.447 --> 00:22:28.675
May give his saying deed;
00:22:28.676 --> 00:22:31.889
which is no further
Than the main voice of Denmark goes withal.
00:22:35.730 --> 00:22:38.854
Then weigh what loss
your honour may sustain,
00:22:38.855 --> 00:22:42.343
If with too credent ear you list his songs,
00:22:43.572 --> 00:22:48.762
Or lose your heart,
or your chaste treasure open
00:22:48.763 --> 00:22:51.168
To his unmaster'd importunity.
00:22:51.169 --> 00:22:53.321
Fear it, Ophelia,
00:22:55.249 --> 00:22:57.919
fear it, my dear sister,
00:22:58.886 --> 00:23:01.338
And keep you in the rear
of your affection,
00:23:01.339 --> 00:23:04.592
Out of the shot
and danger of desire.
00:23:07.946 --> 00:23:13.195
Be wary then;
best safety lies in fear:
00:23:13.196 --> 00:23:15.978
Youth to itself rebels,
though none else near.
00:23:15.979 --> 00:23:18.417
I shall the effect
of this good lesson keep,
00:23:18.418 --> 00:23:22.023
As watchman to my heart.
But, good my brother,
00:23:22.024 --> 00:23:24.757
Do not, as some
ungracious pastors do,
00:23:24.758 --> 00:23:27.604
Show me the steep
and thorny way to heaven;
00:23:27.605 --> 00:23:30.852
Whiles, like a puff'd
and reckless libertine,
00:23:30.853 --> 00:23:35.367
Himself the primrose path
of dalliance treads,
00:23:37.011 --> 00:23:39.930
And recks not his own rede.
O, fear me not.
00:23:40.031 --> 00:23:42.759
I stay too long:
but here my father comes.
00:23:42.760 --> 00:23:46.570
A double blessing is a double grace,
Occasion smiles upon a second leave.
00:23:46.571 --> 00:23:50.526
Yet here, Laertes!
aboard, aboard, for shame!
00:23:50.563 --> 00:23:54.382
The wind sits in the shoulder of your sail,
And you are stay'd for.
00:23:54.383 --> 00:23:57.152
There; my blessing with thee!
00:23:57.153 --> 00:24:01.116
And these few precepts in thy memory
00:24:01.117 --> 00:24:05.068
See thou character.
Give thy thoughts no tongue,
00:24:05.069 --> 00:24:08.508
Nor any unproportioned thought his act.
00:24:08.509 --> 00:24:12.131
Be thou familiar,
but by no means vulgar.
00:24:12.151 --> 00:24:14.960
Those friends thou hast,
and their adoption tried,
00:24:14.961 --> 00:24:17.694
Grapple them to thy soul
with hoops of steel;
00:24:17.695 --> 00:24:20.290
But do not dull thy palm
with entertainment
00:24:20.291 --> 00:24:23.517
Of each new-hatch'd, unfledged comrade.
00:24:23.671 --> 00:24:28.225
Beware Of entrance to a quarrel,
but being in,
00:24:28.226 --> 00:24:31.491
Bear't that the opposed
may beware of thee.
00:24:31.617 --> 00:24:36.241
Give every man thy ear,
but few thy voice;
00:24:36.286 --> 00:24:40.772
Take each man's censure,
but reserve thy judgment.
00:24:41.340 --> 00:24:44.588
Costly thy habit
as thy purse can buy,
00:24:44.589 --> 00:24:49.773
But not express'd in fancy;
rich, not gaudy;
00:24:49.840 --> 00:24:52.880
For the apparel oft proclaims the man,
00:24:53.121 --> 00:24:56.114
Neither a borrower nor a lender be;
For loan
00:24:56.115 --> 00:24:57.682
oft loses both itself and friend,
00:24:57.683 --> 00:25:00.120
- And borrowing
- dulls the edge of husbandry.
00:25:01.130 --> 00:25:03.350
This above all:
00:25:03.852 --> 00:25:06.617
to thine ownself be true,
00:25:06.995 --> 00:25:09.851
And it must follow,
as the night the day,
00:25:09.944 --> 00:25:12.975
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
00:25:15.349 --> 00:25:16.839
Farewell
00:25:16.879 --> 00:25:20.914
my blessing season this in thee!
00:25:23.088 --> 00:25:25.253
Most humbly do I take my leave,
my lord.
00:25:25.254 --> 00:25:29.911
The time invites you; go;
your servants tend.
00:25:29.912 --> 00:25:31.553
Farewell, Ophelia;
00:25:33.951 --> 00:25:36.363
and remember well
What I have said to you.
00:25:36.364 --> 00:25:38.124
'Tis in my memory lock'd,
00:25:38.125 --> 00:25:41.043
And you yourself shall keep
the key of it.
00:25:41.593 --> 00:25:42.902
Farewell.
00:25:51.799 --> 00:25:54.607
What is't, Ophelia,
be hath said to you?
00:25:54.608 --> 00:25:57.802
So please you, something
touching the Lord Hamlet.
00:25:57.965 --> 00:26:00.028
Marry, well bethought:
00:26:00.029 --> 00:26:02.512
Tis told me,
he hath very oft of late
00:26:02.513 --> 00:26:06.076
Given private time to you;
and you yourself
00:26:06.077 --> 00:26:09.715
Have of your audience
been most free and bounteous:
00:26:09.716 --> 00:26:11.947
If it be so, as so 'tis put on me,
00:26:11.948 --> 00:26:14.358
And that in way of caution,
I must tell you,
00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:17.433
You do not understand yourself
so clearly
00:26:17.434 --> 00:26:21.121
As it behoves my daughter
and your honour.
00:26:21.984 --> 00:26:24.261
What is between you?
give me up the truth.
00:26:24.434 --> 00:26:27.080
He hath, my lord,
of late made many tenders
00:26:27.081 --> 00:26:29.497
Of his affection to me.
00:26:29.532 --> 00:26:31.403
Affection! pooh!
00:26:31.480 --> 00:26:33.259
you speak like a green girl,
00:26:33.260 --> 00:26:37.261
Unsifted in such perilous circumstance.
00:26:37.357 --> 00:26:40.293
Do you believe his tenders,
as you call them?
00:26:41.604 --> 00:26:45.164
I do not know, my lord,
what I should think.
00:26:45.165 --> 00:26:49.404
Marry, I'll teach you:
think yourself a baby;
00:26:49.405 --> 00:26:51.654
That you have ta'en
these tenders for true pay,
00:26:51.655 --> 00:26:55.240
Which are not sterling.
Tender yourself more dearly;
00:26:55.241 --> 00:26:57.601
Or--not to crack the wind
of the poor phrase,
00:26:57.602 --> 00:27:00.194
Running it thus--
you'll tender me a fool.
00:27:00.195 --> 00:27:02.978
My lord, he hath
importuned me with love
00:27:02.979 --> 00:27:04.789
In honourable fashion.
00:27:04.790 --> 00:27:07.979
Ay, fashion you may call it;
go to, go to.
00:27:07.980 --> 00:27:10.217
And hath given countenance
to his speech, my lord,
00:27:10.218 --> 00:27:12.352
With almost all the holy vows of heaven.
00:27:12.353 --> 00:27:17.009
Ay, springes to catch woodcocks.
I do know,
00:27:17.010 --> 00:27:19.318
When the blood burns,
how prodigal the soul,
00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:23.245
Lends the tongue vows:
these blazes, daughter,
00:27:23.246 --> 00:27:25.645
Giving more light than heat,
extinct in both,
00:27:25.646 --> 00:27:28.342
You must not take for fire.
From this time
00:27:28.343 --> 00:27:30.966
Be somewhat scanter
of your maiden presence;
00:27:30.967 --> 00:27:35.693
For Lord Hamlet,
Believe so much in him, that he is young
00:27:35.694 --> 00:27:37.777
And with a larger tether
may he walk
00:27:37.778 --> 00:27:39.351
Than may be given you:
00:27:39.352 --> 00:27:43.067
in few, Ophelia,
Do not believe his vows;.
00:27:46.758 --> 00:27:48.557
This is for all:
00:27:48.590 --> 00:27:52.724
I would not, in plain terms,
from this time forth,
00:27:52.725 --> 00:27:56.057
Have you so slander any moment leisure,
00:27:56.058 --> 00:28:00.240
As to give words or talk
with the Lord Hamlet.
00:28:00.464 --> 00:28:03.165
Look to't, I charge you:
00:28:04.917 --> 00:28:07.192
come your ways.
00:28:07.364 --> 00:28:09.341
I shall obey, my lord.
00:28:11.364 --> 00:28:16.254
The air bites shrewdly;
it is very cold.
00:28:16.255 --> 00:28:18.178
It is a nipping and an eager air.
00:28:18.179 --> 00:28:20.057
- What hour now?
- I think it lacks of twelve.
00:28:20.058 --> 00:28:24.569
- No, it is struck.
- Indeed? I heard it not:
00:28:26.380 --> 00:28:28.755
then it draws near the season
00:28:28.756 --> 00:28:30.600
Wherein the spirit held his wont to walk.
00:28:36.442 --> 00:28:38.149
What does this mean, my lord?
00:28:38.524 --> 00:28:41.397
The king doth wake to-night
and takes his rouse,
00:28:42.176 --> 00:28:45.744
Keeps wassail,
and the swaggering up-spring reels;
00:28:46.972 --> 00:28:49.488
And, as he drains
his draughts of Rhenish down,
00:28:49.489 --> 00:28:52.409
The kettle-drum and trumpet thus bray out
00:28:52.899 --> 00:28:55.770
- The triumph of his pledge.
- Is it a custom?
00:28:56.143 --> 00:28:58.681
Ay, marry, is't:
00:28:58.803 --> 00:29:01.275
But to my mind,
though I am native here
00:29:01.276 --> 00:29:03.807
And to the manner born,
it is a custom
00:29:04.597 --> 00:29:07.503
More honour'd in the breach
than the observance.
00:29:11.977 --> 00:29:13.814
Look, my lord, it comes!
00:29:17.503 --> 00:29:19.879
Angels and ministers
of grace defend us!
00:29:23.300 --> 00:29:26.019
Be thou a spirit of health
or goblin damn'd,
00:29:26.830 --> 00:29:30.563
Bring with thee airs
from heaven or blasts from hell,
00:29:31.597 --> 00:29:33.596
Be thy intents wicked or charitable,
00:29:33.597 --> 00:29:36.018
Thou comest in such
a questionable shape
00:29:37.086 --> 00:29:38.939
That I will speak to thee:
00:29:39.971 --> 00:29:42.721
I'll call thee Hamlet,
00:29:43.360 --> 00:29:45.021
King,
00:29:45.022 --> 00:29:46.647
father,
00:29:46.735 --> 00:29:49.242
royal Dane: O, answer me!
00:29:49.988 --> 00:29:52.688
Let me not burst in ignorance;
but tell
00:29:52.689 --> 00:29:56.284
Why thy canonized bones,
hearsed in death,
00:29:56.285 --> 00:29:59.534
Have burst their cerements;
why the sepulchre,
00:29:59.535 --> 00:30:02.409
Wherein we saw thee quietly inurn'd,
00:30:02.410 --> 00:30:05.327
Hath oped his ponderous
and marble jaws,
00:30:05.328 --> 00:30:07.896
To cast thee up again.
What may this mean,
00:30:09.704 --> 00:30:14.733
That thou, dead corpse,
again in complete steel
00:30:15.360 --> 00:30:18.343
Revisit'st thus
the glimpses of the moon,
00:30:18.459 --> 00:30:21.437
Making night hideous;
and we fools of nature
00:30:21.438 --> 00:30:24.711
So horridly to shake our disposition
00:30:25.064 --> 00:30:28.677
With thoughts beyond
the reaches of our souls?
00:30:31.735 --> 00:30:34.688
Say, why is this?
00:30:36.283 --> 00:30:37.877
wherefore?
00:30:39.374 --> 00:30:41.060
what should we do?
00:30:43.053 --> 00:30:44.810
It beckons you to go away with it,
00:30:44.811 --> 00:30:47.241
As if it some impartment did desire
To you alone.
00:30:47.242 --> 00:30:50.000
It waves you to a more removed ground:
But do not go with it.
00:30:50.001 --> 00:30:52.547
- No, by no means.
- It will not speak; then I will follow it.
00:30:52.548 --> 00:30:54.670
- Do not, my lord.
- Why, what should be the fear?
00:30:54.671 --> 00:30:56.845
I do not set my life in a pin's fee;
00:30:56.846 --> 00:31:00.436
And for my soul, what can it do to that,
Being a thing immortal as itself?
00:31:01.022 --> 00:31:02.636
It waves me forth again:
I'll follow it.
00:31:02.637 --> 00:31:04.907
What if it tempt you
toward the flood, my lord,
00:31:04.908 --> 00:31:06.927
Or to the dreadful
summit of the cliff
00:31:06.928 --> 00:31:09.672
That beetles o'er
his base into the sea,
00:31:09.673 --> 00:31:11.486
And there assume some
other horrible form,
00:31:11.487 --> 00:31:13.481
Which might deprive
your sovereignty of reason
00:31:13.482 --> 00:31:15.968
- And draw you into madness?
- It waves me still.
00:31:15.969 --> 00:31:17.466
- Go on; I'll follow thee.
- You shall not go, my lord.
00:31:17.467 --> 00:31:19.924
- Hold off your hands.
- Be ruled; you shall not go.
00:31:19.925 --> 00:31:21.481
My fate cries out,
00:31:21.482 --> 00:31:23.497
And makes each petty
artery in this body
00:31:23.498 --> 00:31:26.032
As hardy as the Nemean
lion's nerve.
00:31:26.124 --> 00:31:29.029
Still am I call'd.
Unhand me, gentlemen.
00:31:29.030 --> 00:31:31.342
By heaven, I'll make a ghost
of him that lets me!
00:31:31.343 --> 00:31:33.669
I say, away!
00:31:37.301 --> 00:31:39.720
Go on; I'll follow thee.
00:31:42.581 --> 00:31:44.611
He waxes desperate with imagination.
00:31:44.612 --> 00:31:47.310
Let's follow;
'tis not fit thus to obey him.
00:31:47.311 --> 00:31:49.612
- Have after.
- To what issue will this come?
00:31:49.998 --> 00:31:52.468
Something is rotten
in the state of Denmark.
00:31:52.794 --> 00:31:56.074
- Heaven will direct it.
- Nay, let's follow.
00:31:58.138 --> 00:32:00.902
Where wilt thou lead me?
speak; I'll go no further.
00:32:00.903 --> 00:32:03.039
- Mark me.
- I will.
00:32:03.273 --> 00:32:09.948
My hour is almost come,
When I to sulphurous and tormenting flames
Must render up myself.
00:32:09.949 --> 00:32:11.327
Alas, poor ghost!
00:32:11.328 --> 00:32:12.934
Pity me not,
00:32:12.995 --> 00:32:16.244
but lend thy serious hearing
To what I shall unfold.
00:32:16.245 --> 00:32:19.669
Speak; I am bound to hear.
00:32:19.670 --> 00:32:22.619
So art thou to revenge,
when thou shalt hear.
00:32:22.620 --> 00:32:23.995
What?
00:32:24.168 --> 00:32:27.122
I am thy father's spirit,
00:32:27.649 --> 00:32:31.683
Doom'd for a certain term
to walk the night,
00:32:32.419 --> 00:32:37.574
And for the day confined
to fast in fires,
00:32:37.575 --> 00:32:41.303
Till the foul crimes done
in my days of nature
00:32:41.304 --> 00:32:46.601
Are burnt and purged away.
But that I am forbid
00:32:46.602 --> 00:32:49.960
To tell the secrets
of my prison-house,
00:32:50.522 --> 00:32:54.231
I could a tale unfold
whose lightest word
00:32:54.232 --> 00:32:58.105
Would harrow up thy soul,
freeze thy young blood,
00:32:58.106 --> 00:33:02.802
Make thy two eyes, like stars,
start from their spheres,
00:33:02.803 --> 00:33:06.677
But this eternal blazon must not be
00:33:06.678 --> 00:33:09.428
To ears of flesh and blood.
00:33:09.429 --> 00:33:13.710
List, list, O, list!
00:33:13.711 --> 00:33:16.604
- If thou didst ever thy dear father love...
- O God!
00:33:16.605 --> 00:33:21.234
... Revenge his foul
and most unnatural murder.
00:33:21.235 --> 00:33:22.505
Murder!!
00:33:22.506 --> 00:33:25.144
Murder most foul,
00:33:25.145 --> 00:33:26.771
as in the best it is,
00:33:26.772 --> 00:33:31.066
But this most foul,
strange and unnatural.
00:33:31.067 --> 00:33:34.333
Haste me to know't,
that I, with wings as swift
00:33:34.334 --> 00:33:36.931
As meditation or the thoughts of love,
00:33:36.932 --> 00:33:38.491
May sweep to my revenge.
00:33:38.492 --> 00:33:40.552
I find thee apt;
00:33:42.299 --> 00:33:48.178
'Tis given out
that sleeping in my orchard,
00:33:48.802 --> 00:33:51.426
A serpent stung me.
00:33:52.010 --> 00:33:53.690
but know,
00:33:53.691 --> 00:33:55.582
thou noble youth,
00:33:55.913 --> 00:34:00.067
The serpent that did
sting thy father's life
00:34:00.068 --> 00:34:02.925
Now wears his crown.
00:34:02.926 --> 00:34:05.893
O my prophetic soul! My uncle!
00:34:05.894 --> 00:34:11.754
Ay, that incestuous,
that adulterate beast,
00:34:11.815 --> 00:34:15.302
With witchcraft of his wit,
00:34:15.303 --> 00:34:21.275
with traitorous gifts,
won to his shameful lust
00:34:21.770 --> 00:34:25.987
The will of my most
seeming-virtuous queen:
00:34:25.989 --> 00:34:31.891
O Hamlet,
what a falling-off was there!
00:34:32.440 --> 00:34:36.916
From me, whose love
was of that dignity
00:34:36.917 --> 00:34:42.297
That it went hand in hand
even with the vow
00:34:42.299 --> 00:34:44.463
I made to her in marriage,
00:34:45.522 --> 00:34:49.322
and to decline
upon a wretch
00:34:49.322 --> 00:34:52.501
whose natural gifts were poor
00:34:52.502 --> 00:34:54.176
To those of mine!
00:34:54.177 --> 00:34:58.220
But lust, though to a radiant angel link'd,
00:34:58.221 --> 00:35:01.068
Will sate itself in a celestial bed,
00:35:01.069 --> 00:35:03.382
And prey on garbage.
00:35:03.939 --> 00:35:05.393
But, soft!
00:35:07.552 --> 00:35:12.192
methinks I scent the morning air.
00:35:14.082 --> 00:35:15.745
Brief let me be.
00:35:16.181 --> 00:35:18.049
Sleeping within my orchard,
00:35:18.050 --> 00:35:20.399
My custom always in the afternoon,
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:23.847
Upon my secure hour thy uncle stole,
00:35:23.848 --> 00:35:26.806
With juice of cursed
00:35:27.471 --> 00:35:31.092
hebenon in a vial,
00:35:31.243 --> 00:35:34.568
And in the porches of my ears did pour
00:35:34.569 --> 00:35:37.439
The leperous distilment; whose effect
00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:40.018
Holds such an enmity with blood of man
00:35:40.019 --> 00:35:43.149
That swift as quicksilver it courses through
00:35:43.150 --> 00:35:46.083
The natural gates and alleys of the body,
00:35:46.084 --> 00:35:50.036
And with a sudden vigour doth posset
00:35:50.244 --> 00:35:54.536
And curd,
The thin and wholesome blood:
00:35:56.034 --> 00:35:57.909
so did it mine;
00:35:57.911 --> 00:36:03.329
And a most instant
tetter bark'd about,
00:36:03.330 --> 00:36:08.501
Most lazar-like,
with vile and loathsome crust,
00:36:08.705 --> 00:36:11.379
All my smooth body.
00:36:12.956 --> 00:36:14.659
Thus was I,
00:36:15.580 --> 00:36:20.360
sleeping, by a brother's hand
of life
00:36:20.755 --> 00:36:25.337
of crown, and queen, at once
00:36:25.372 --> 00:36:27.118
dispatch'd
00:36:27.697 --> 00:36:29.783
O, horrible!
00:36:30.268 --> 00:36:32.908
- Most horrible!
- O God!
00:36:32.909 --> 00:36:36.626
If thou hast nature in thee,
bear it not;
00:36:36.627 --> 00:36:40.258
Let not the royal bed of Denmark
be a couch
00:36:40.259 --> 00:36:42.821
for luxury and damned incest.
00:36:44.417 --> 00:36:47.935
But, howsoever
thou pursuest this act,
00:36:48.622 --> 00:36:52.146
Taint not thy mind,
00:36:53.578 --> 00:36:57.882
nor let thy soul contrive
Against thy mother aught.
00:36:58.332 --> 00:36:59.793
leave her to heaven
00:37:00.494 --> 00:37:05.836
And to those thorns that in her bosom lodge,
To prick and sting her.
00:37:06.832 --> 00:37:08.589
Fare thee well at once!
00:37:10.768 --> 00:37:14.106
The glow-worm shows
the matin to be near,
00:37:14.107 --> 00:37:18.281
And 'gins to pale his uneffectual fire:
00:37:20.842 --> 00:37:24.903
Adieu, adieu!
00:37:26.308 --> 00:37:28.151
Hamlet...
00:37:29.841 --> 00:37:32.966
remember me!
00:37:36.773 --> 00:37:39.300
O all you host of heaven!
00:37:39.537 --> 00:37:41.706
O earth! what else?
00:37:41.771 --> 00:37:43.986
And shall I couple hell?
O, fie!!
00:37:43.987 --> 00:37:46.863
Hold, hold, my heart;
00:37:47.896 --> 00:37:51.081
And you, my sinews,
grow not instant old,
00:37:51.082 --> 00:37:54.114
But bear me stiffly up.
Remember thee!
00:37:55.448 --> 00:37:59.112
Ay, thou poor ghost,
while memory holds a seat
00:37:59.113 --> 00:38:01.989
In this distracted globe.
Remember thee!
00:38:02.385 --> 00:38:04.100
Yea, from the table of my memory
00:38:04.101 --> 00:38:06.424
I'll wipe away
all trivial fond records,
00:38:06.425 --> 00:38:09.017
All saws of books,
all forms, all pressures past,
00:38:09.018 --> 00:38:11.270
That youth and observation
copied there;
00:38:11.271 --> 00:38:13.549
And thy commandment
all alone shall live
00:38:13.550 --> 00:38:16.660
Within the book
and volume of my brain,
00:38:16.661 --> 00:38:20.799
Unmix'd with baser matter:
yes, by heaven!
00:38:25.173 --> 00:38:28.486
O most pernicious woman!
00:38:30.766 --> 00:38:32.455
O villain,
00:38:33.569 --> 00:38:34.986
villain,
00:38:35.877 --> 00:38:38.456
smiling, damned villain!
00:38:38.457 --> 00:38:40.400
My tables,--
meet it is I set it down,
00:38:40.401 --> 00:38:44.414
That one may smile, and smile,
00:38:44.986 --> 00:38:46.695
and be a villain.
00:38:48.032 --> 00:38:49.171
At least,
00:38:50.206 --> 00:38:52.596
I'm sure it may be so in Denmark.
00:38:57.008 --> 00:38:58.294
So,
00:38:59.039 --> 00:39:00.730
uncle,
00:39:02.631 --> 00:39:04.363
there you are.
00:39:09.421 --> 00:39:10.896
Now to my word
00:39:12.859 --> 00:39:16.467
It is 'Adieu, adieu! remember me.'
00:39:18.733 --> 00:39:20.796
I have sworn 't.
00:39:21.269 --> 00:39:24.831
- My lord, my lord,--,
- Heaven secure him! - So be it!
00:39:24.972 --> 00:39:26.635
Hillo, ho, ho, my lord!
00:39:26.636 --> 00:39:29.767
Hillo, ho, ho, boy!
come, bird, come.
00:39:30.040 --> 00:39:31.708
How is't, my noble lord?
00:39:32.165 --> 00:39:34.482
- What news, my lord?
- O, wonderful!
00:39:34.517 --> 00:39:35.404
Good my lord, tell it.
00:39:35.533 --> 00:39:38.041
- No; you'll reveal it.
- Not I, my lord, by heaven.
00:39:38.042 --> 00:39:40.240
- Nor I, my lord.
- How say you, then;
00:39:40.347 --> 00:39:42.364
would heart of man once think it?
00:39:43.612 --> 00:39:45.956
- But you'll be secret?
- Ay, by heaven, my lord.
00:39:46.957 --> 00:39:50.205
There's ne'er a villain
dwelling in all Denmark
00:39:50.979 --> 00:39:52.737
But he's an arrant knave.
00:39:52.752 --> 00:39:55.410
There needs no ghost come from the grave
To tell us this.
00:39:55.411 --> 00:39:56.750
Why, right; you are i' the right;
00:39:56.751 --> 00:39:59.694
And so, without more circumstance at all,
I hold it fit that we shake hands and part:
00:39:59.695 --> 00:40:01.501
You, as your business
and desire shall point you;
00:40:01.502 --> 00:40:03.658
For every man has business and desires,
00:40:03.659 --> 00:40:05.281
Such as it is;
and for mine own poor part,
00:40:05.282 --> 00:40:07.080
Look you, I'll go pray.
00:40:07.081 --> 00:40:09.853
These are but wild
and whirling words, my lord.
00:40:09.953 --> 00:40:12.657
I'm sorry they offend you, heartily;
Yes, 'faith heartily.
00:40:12.658 --> 00:40:14.454
There's no offence, my lord.
00:40:15.078 --> 00:40:18.768
Yes, by Saint Patrick,
but there is, Horatio,
00:40:19.938 --> 00:40:21.443
And much offence too.
00:40:21.444 --> 00:40:23.001
Touching this vision here,
00:40:24.470 --> 00:40:27.890
It is an honest ghost,
that let me tell you:
00:40:27.891 --> 00:40:29.345
For your desire to know
what is between us,
00:40:29.346 --> 00:40:31.765
O'ermaster 't as you may.
And now, good friends,
00:40:31.766 --> 00:40:34.267
As you are friends,
scholars and soldiers,
00:40:34.268 --> 00:40:35.470
Give me one poor request.
00:40:35.471 --> 00:40:37.252
What is't, my lord? we will.
00:40:38.093 --> 00:40:40.053
Never make known
what you have seen to-night.
00:40:40.054 --> 00:40:41.050
My lord, we will not.
00:40:41.051 --> 00:40:42.453
Nay, but swear't.
00:40:42.454 --> 00:40:44.812
In faith, My lord, not I.
00:40:44.813 --> 00:40:48.311
- Nor I, my lord, in faith.
- Upon my sword.
00:40:48.312 --> 00:40:50.560
- We have sworn, my lord, already.
- Indeed, upon my sword, indeed.
00:40:50.561 --> 00:40:54.015
- Swear.
- Ah, ha, boy!
00:40:54.016 --> 00:40:55.925
say'st thou so?
art thou there, truepenny?
00:40:55.926 --> 00:40:58.263
Come on--you hear this fellow
in the cellarage--
00:40:58.264 --> 00:41:00.326
- Consent to swear.
- Propose the oath, my lord.
00:41:00.327 --> 00:41:02.764
Never to speak of this that you have seen,
Swear by my sword.
00:41:02.765 --> 00:41:03.937
Swear.
00:41:03.938 --> 00:41:06.671
Hic et ubique?
then we'll shift our ground.
00:41:06.672 --> 00:41:09.422
Come hither, gentlemen,
And lay your hands again upon my sword:
00:41:10.379 --> 00:41:12.202
Never to speak of this that you have heard,
00:41:12.203 --> 00:41:14.173
- Swear by my sword.
- Swear.
00:41:14.224 --> 00:41:16.626
Well said, old mole!
00:41:16.627 --> 00:41:18.784
canst work i' the earth so fast?
A worthy pioner!
00:41:18.785 --> 00:41:20.248
Once more remove, good friends.
00:41:20.249 --> 00:41:23.404
O day and night,
but this is wondrous strange!
00:41:23.405 --> 00:41:26.060
And therefore as a stranger
give it welcome.
00:41:27.160 --> 00:41:29.951
There are more things
in heaven and earth, Horatio,
00:41:30.360 --> 00:41:34.183
Than are dreamt of
in your philosophy. But come;
00:41:34.184 --> 00:41:36.323
Here, as before, never,
so help you mercy,
00:41:36.324 --> 00:41:39.012
How strange or odd
soe'er I bear myself,
00:41:39.173 --> 00:41:41.058
As I perchance hereafter
shall think meet
00:41:41.059 --> 00:41:43.856
To put an antic disposition on,
00:41:44.637 --> 00:41:46.844
That you, at such times
seeing me, never shall,
00:41:46.845 --> 00:41:50.044
With arms encumber'd thus,
or this headshake,
00:41:50.045 --> 00:41:51.744
Or by pronouncing of some
doubtful phrase,
00:41:51.745 --> 00:41:55.386
As 'Well, well, we know,'
or 'We could, an if we would,'
00:41:55.387 --> 00:41:57.839
Or such ambiguous giving out, to note
00:41:57.840 --> 00:42:02.415
That you know aught of me:
this not to do,
00:42:03.526 --> 00:42:07.191
So grace and mercy at
your most need help you,
00:42:07.192 --> 00:42:07.736
Swear!
00:42:07.737 --> 00:42:11.997
- Swear!
- We swear! We swear!
00:42:11.998 --> 00:42:17.638
Rest, rest, perturbed spirit!
00:42:25.309 --> 00:42:27.874
So, gentlemen,
00:42:28.988 --> 00:42:30.560
Let us go in together;
00:42:30.996 --> 00:42:33.248
And still your fingers on your lips, I pray.
00:42:40.872 --> 00:42:42.639
The time is out of joint.
00:42:45.060 --> 00:42:46.933
O cursed spite,
00:42:51.749 --> 00:42:54.344
That ever I was born to set it right!
00:43:02.518 --> 00:43:07.941
Give him this money
and these notes, Reynaldo.
00:43:07.976 --> 00:43:09.105
I will, my lord.
00:43:09.106 --> 00:43:11.766
You shall do marvellous wisely,
good Reynaldo,
00:43:11.767 --> 00:43:15.823
Before you visit him, to make inquire
Of his behavior.
00:43:15.824 --> 00:43:17.682
My lord, I did intend it.
00:43:17.683 --> 00:43:22.079
Marry, well said; very well said.
Look you, sir,
00:43:22.080 --> 00:43:25.384
Inquire me first
what Danskers are in Paris;
00:43:25.385 --> 00:43:27.984
And how, and who, what means,
and where they keep,
00:43:27.985 --> 00:43:30.613
What company, at what expense;
and finding
00:43:30.614 --> 00:43:33.717
By this encompassment
and drift of question
00:43:33.718 --> 00:43:36.891
That they do know my son,
come you more nearer
00:43:36.892 --> 00:43:40.245
Take you, as 'twere, some distant
knowledge of him;
00:43:40.246 --> 00:43:44.140
As thus, 'I know his father
and his friends,
00:43:44.141 --> 00:43:47.477
And in part him:
' do you mark this, Reynaldo?
00:43:47.478 --> 00:43:49.446
Ay, very well, my lord.
00:43:49.447 --> 00:43:53.340
'And in part him;
but' you may say 'not well:
00:43:53.341 --> 00:43:57.404
But, if't be he I mean,
he's very wild;
00:43:57.405 --> 00:44:00.869
Addicted so and so:
' and there put on him
00:44:00.870 --> 00:44:05.201
What forgeries you please;
marry, none so rank
00:44:05.202 --> 00:44:08.281
As may dishonour him;
take heed of that;
00:44:08.282 --> 00:44:11.454
But, sir, such wanton,
wild and usual slips
00:44:11.455 --> 00:44:15.149
As are companions noted
and most known
00:44:15.150 --> 00:44:16.901
To youth and liberty.
00:44:16.902 --> 00:44:18.742
As gaming, my lord.
00:44:18.743 --> 00:44:24.291
Ay, or drinking, fencing,
swearing, quarrelling,
00:44:24.680 --> 00:44:26.836
Drabbing: you may go so far.
00:44:26.837 --> 00:44:28.711
My lord, that would dishonour him.
00:44:28.712 --> 00:44:31.476
'Faith, no; as you may
season it in the charge
00:44:31.477 --> 00:44:33.710
- But, my good lord,--
- Wherefore should you do this?
00:44:33.711 --> 00:44:37.276
- Ay, my lord, I would know that.
- Marry, sir, here's my drift;
00:44:37.277 --> 00:44:39.453
And I believe, it is a fetch of wit:
00:44:39.454 --> 00:44:42.289
You laying these slight
sullies on my son,
00:44:42.290 --> 00:44:45.150
As 'twere a thing a little soil'd i'
the working, Mark you,
00:44:45.151 --> 00:44:48.569
Your party in converse,
him you would sound,
00:44:48.570 --> 00:44:51.076
Having ever seen
in the prenominate crimes
00:44:51.077 --> 00:44:53.702
The youth you breathe of guilty,
be assured
00:44:53.703 --> 00:44:56.741
He closes with you in this consequence;
00:44:56.743 --> 00:44:59.397
'Good sir,' or so,
00:44:59.432 --> 00:45:02.978
or 'friend,' or 'gentleman,'
00:45:03.013 --> 00:45:04.928
According to the phrase or the addition
00:45:04.929 --> 00:45:06.529
Of man and country.
00:45:06.530 --> 00:45:08.177
Very good, my lord.
00:45:08.949 --> 00:45:11.494
And then, sir, does he this--
00:45:14.351 --> 00:45:15.869
he does--
00:45:23.555 --> 00:45:25.524
what was I about to say?
00:45:25.900 --> 00:45:28.349
By the mass, I was about to say
something:
00:45:29.084 --> 00:45:30.399
where did I leave?
00:45:30.400 --> 00:45:32.972
At 'closes in the consequence...
00:45:32.973 --> 00:45:36.477
At 'closes in the consequence...?
00:45:36.512 --> 00:45:37.627
' ay, marry;
00:45:37.678 --> 00:45:40.303
He closes thus:
'I know the gentleman;
00:45:40.304 --> 00:45:44.036
I saw him yesterday, or t' other day,
00:45:44.037 --> 00:45:47.834
Or then, or then;
with such, or such;
00:45:47.835 --> 00:45:49.988
and, as you say,
There was a' gaming;
00:45:49.989 --> 00:45:52.661
There falling out at tennis:
' or perchance,
00:45:52.662 --> 00:45:57.275
'I saw him enter
such a house of sale,'
00:45:58.241 --> 00:46:03.864
Videlicet, a brothel, or so forth.
See you now;
00:46:04.065 --> 00:46:10.036
Your bait of falsehood
takes this carp of truth:
00:46:10.666 --> 00:46:12.990
And thus do we of wisdom and of reach,
00:46:12.991 --> 00:46:18.488
By indirections find directions out:
00:46:18.925 --> 00:46:21.776
- You have me, have you not?
- My lord, I have.
00:46:21.777 --> 00:46:23.668
God be wi' you;
00:46:23.738 --> 00:46:26.241
- fare you well.
- Good my lord!
00:46:26.524 --> 00:46:29.651
Observe his inclination
in yourself.
00:46:29.652 --> 00:46:33.897
- I shall, my lord.
- And let him ply his music.
00:46:33.898 --> 00:46:35.538
Well, my lord.
00:46:36.615 --> 00:46:38.083
Farewell!
00:46:40.497 --> 00:46:42.525
How now, Ophelia!
what's the matter?
00:46:42.526 --> 00:46:45.604
O, my lord, my lord,
I have been so affrighted!
00:46:45.605 --> 00:46:47.211
With what, i' the name of God?
00:46:47.212 --> 00:46:50.589
My lord, as I was sewing in my closet,
00:46:50.821 --> 00:46:54.110
Lord Hamlet, with his doublet
all unbraced;
00:46:54.111 --> 00:46:57.110
No hat upon his head;
his stockings foul'd,
00:46:57.111 --> 00:46:59.835
Ungarter'd, and down-gyved
to his ancle;
00:46:59.836 --> 00:47:03.422
Pale as his shirt;
his knees knocking each other;
00:47:03.423 --> 00:47:07.369
And with a look so piteous in purport
00:47:08.110 --> 00:47:09.960
As if he had been loosed out of hell
00:47:09.961 --> 00:47:12.397
To speak of horrors,
--he comes before me.
00:47:12.398 --> 00:47:15.544
- Mad for thy love?
- My lord, I do not know;
00:47:15.545 --> 00:47:19.887
- But truly, I do fear it.
- What said he?
00:47:20.623 --> 00:47:23.386
He took me by the wrist
and held me hard;
00:47:23.982 --> 00:47:26.556
Then goes he to the length
of all his arm;
00:47:26.670 --> 00:47:29.861
And, with his other hand
thus o'er his brow,
00:47:30.109 --> 00:47:35.138
He falls to such perusal of my face
As he would draw it.
00:47:35.712 --> 00:47:37.463
Long stay'd he so;
00:47:38.077 --> 00:47:41.212
At last, a little shaking of mine arm
00:47:41.213 --> 00:47:44.803
And thrice his head thus
waving up and down,
00:47:44.804 --> 00:47:49.459
He raised a sigh so piteous
and profound
00:47:49.460 --> 00:47:53.335
As it did seem to shatter all his bulk
00:47:53.336 --> 00:47:55.522
And end his being
00:47:56.231 --> 00:47:58.418
that done, he lets me go:
00:47:58.620 --> 00:48:01.336
And, with his head over
his shoulder turn'd,
00:48:02.435 --> 00:48:05.758
He seem'd to find his way
without his eyes;
00:48:07.500 --> 00:48:10.687
For out o' doors he went
without their helps,
00:48:10.977 --> 00:48:14.387
And, to the last,
bended their light on me.
00:48:14.388 --> 00:48:19.459
Come,
This is the very ecstasy of love,
00:48:19.460 --> 00:48:21.569
Whose violent property fordoes itself
00:48:21.570 --> 00:48:25.008
And leads the will to desperate undertakings
00:48:25.084 --> 00:48:27.131
I am sorry.
00:48:27.247 --> 00:48:30.131
What, have you given him
any hard words of late?
00:48:30.132 --> 00:48:32.476
No, my good lord, but,
as you did command,
00:48:32.477 --> 00:48:35.522
I did repel his fetters and denied
00:48:35.523 --> 00:48:39.851
- His access to me.
- That hath made him mad.
00:48:39.852 --> 00:48:42.027
I am sorry that
with better heed and judgment
00:48:42.028 --> 00:48:45.448
I had not quoted him:
I fear'd he did but trifle,
00:48:45.449 --> 00:48:50.712
And meant to wreck thee;
but, beshrew my jealousy!
00:48:51.287 --> 00:48:54.021
Come, go we to the king:
00:48:54.685 --> 00:48:56.662
This must be known;
00:48:58.897 --> 00:49:03.847
Welcome, dear Rosencrantz
and Guildenstern!
00:49:03.848 --> 00:49:06.681
Moreover that we much
did long to see you,
00:49:06.682 --> 00:49:10.629
The need we have to use you did provoke
00:49:10.630 --> 00:49:13.347
Our hasty sending.
Something have you heard
00:49:13.348 --> 00:49:18.260
Of Hamlet's transformation.
What it should be,
00:49:18.287 --> 00:49:21.129
More than his father's death,
that thus hath put him
00:49:21.130 --> 00:49:24.121
So much from the understanding of himself,
00:49:24.257 --> 00:49:28.034
I cannot dream of:
I beseech you,
00:49:28.035 --> 00:49:29.763
That, being of such
00:49:29.764 --> 00:49:32.223
young days brought up with him,
00:49:32.881 --> 00:49:35.910
That you vouchsafe
your rest here in our court
00:49:35.911 --> 00:49:38.581
Some little time:
so by your companies
00:49:38.582 --> 00:49:44.159
To lead him on to pleasures,
and to gather,
00:49:44.160 --> 00:49:46.964
So much as from occasion you may glean,
00:49:46.965 --> 00:49:50.316
Whether aught, unknown to us,
afflicts him thus,
00:49:50.317 --> 00:49:52.379
That, open'd, lies within our remedy.
00:49:52.380 --> 00:49:55.505
Good gentlemen, he hath
much talk'd of you;
00:49:55.506 --> 00:49:57.493
And sure I am two men
there are not living
00:49:57.494 --> 00:50:00.345
To whom he more adheres.
If it will please you
00:50:00.346 --> 00:50:02.127
To show us so much gentry
and good will
00:50:02.128 --> 00:50:04.867
As to expend your time
with us awhile,
00:50:04.868 --> 00:50:07.222
For the supply
and profit of our hope,
00:50:07.971 --> 00:50:10.554
Your visitation shall receive
such thanks
00:50:10.555 --> 00:50:12.959
As fits a king's remembrance.
00:50:12.960 --> 00:50:14.284
Both your majesties
00:50:14.285 --> 00:50:16.821
Might, by the sovereign
power you have of us,
00:50:16.822 --> 00:50:18.901
Put your dread pleasures
more into command
00:50:18.902 --> 00:50:20.003
Than to entreaty.
00:50:20.004 --> 00:50:21.534
But we both obey,
00:50:22.536 --> 00:50:24.696
And here give up ourselves,
in the full bent
00:50:24.697 --> 00:50:28.034
To lay our service freely at your feet,
To be commanded.
00:50:28.035 --> 00:50:31.079
Thanks, Rosencrantz
and gentle Guildenstern.
00:50:31.080 --> 00:50:34.642
Thanks, Guildenstern
and gentle Rosencrantz:
00:50:34.643 --> 00:50:38.844
And I beseech you instantly to visit
My too much changed son.
00:50:38.845 --> 00:50:40.970
Go, some of you,
And bring these gentlemen where Hamlet is.
00:50:40.971 --> 00:50:42.593
Heavens make our presence
and our practises
00:50:42.594 --> 00:50:44.659
Pleasant and helpful to him!
Ay, amen!
00:50:47.241 --> 00:50:49.741
The ambassadors from Norway,
my good lord,
00:50:49.742 --> 00:50:51.617
Are joyfully return'd.
00:50:52.056 --> 00:50:54.468
Thou still hast been
the father of good news.
00:50:54.469 --> 00:50:55.959
Have I, my lord?
00:50:55.960 --> 00:51:01.422
I assure my good liege,
I hold my duty, as I hold my soul,
00:51:01.423 --> 00:51:04.752
Both to my God
and to my gracious king:
00:51:04.985 --> 00:51:07.907
And I do think that I have found
00:51:07.930 --> 00:51:11.953
The very cause of Hamlet's lunacy.
00:51:12.392 --> 00:51:15.219
O, speak of that;
that do I long to hear.
00:51:15.220 --> 00:51:17.738
A first give admittance to the ambassadors;
00:51:17.739 --> 00:51:20.564
My news shall be the fruit
to that great feast.
00:51:20.565 --> 00:51:22.866
Thyself do grace to them,
and bring them in.
00:51:24.171 --> 00:51:29.878
He tells me, my dear Gertrude,
that he hath found
00:51:29.879 --> 00:51:32.841
The head and source
of all your son's distemper.
00:51:32.842 --> 00:51:35.488
I doubt it is no other but the main;
00:51:35.489 --> 00:51:37.177
His father's death,
00:51:37.767 --> 00:51:40.585
and our o'erhasty marriage.
00:51:41.427 --> 00:51:43.093
Well, we will sift him.
00:51:43.956 --> 00:51:46.467
Welcome, good friends!
00:51:46.779 --> 00:51:49.002
Say, what from our brother Norway?
00:51:49.003 --> 00:51:51.873
Most fair return
of greetings and desires.
00:51:51.874 --> 00:51:54.123
he sent out to suppress
His nephew's march.
00:51:54.124 --> 00:51:56.465
the which is told a propose
'gainst the Poles
00:51:56.466 --> 00:51:58.113
But, better look'd into, he truly found
00:51:58.114 --> 00:52:00.466
It was against your highness
and our state.
00:52:00.467 --> 00:52:03.425
So, Fortinbras
Receives rebuke from him
00:52:03.426 --> 00:52:05.655
and vowes before his uncle never more
00:52:05.656 --> 00:52:08.421
To give the assay of arms
against stand mark here.
00:52:12.491 --> 00:52:14.661
It likes us well;
00:52:15.349 --> 00:52:17.368
at night we'll feast together:
00:52:17.369 --> 00:52:19.052
Most welcome home!
00:52:21.809 --> 00:52:24.677
This business is well ended.
00:52:25.725 --> 00:52:29.652
My liege, and madam, to expostulate
00:52:29.653 --> 00:52:34.098
What majesty should be, what duty is,
00:52:34.099 --> 00:52:38.036
Why day is day, night night,
00:52:38.037 --> 00:52:43.507
and time is time,
00:52:47.714 --> 00:52:50.442
Were nothing but to waste
night, day and time.
00:52:50.443 --> 00:52:53.129
Therefore, since brevity
is the soul of wit,
00:52:53.130 --> 00:52:55.676
And tediousness the limbs
and outward flourishes,
00:52:55.677 --> 00:52:58.629
I will be brief:
your noble son is mad:
00:52:58.630 --> 00:53:03.487
Mad call I it; for,
to define true madness,
00:53:03.488 --> 00:53:08.067
What is't but to be nothing else but mad?
00:53:08.068 --> 00:53:11.398
- But let that go.
- More matter, with less art.
00:53:11.399 --> 00:53:14.867
Madam, I swear I use no art at all.
00:53:14.868 --> 00:53:17.786
That he is mad, 'tis true:
'tis true 'tis pity;
00:53:17.787 --> 00:53:20.611
And pity 'tis 'tis true:
a foolish figure;
00:53:20.612 --> 00:53:23.189
But farewell it,'
for I will use no art.
00:53:23.190 --> 00:53:26.039
Mad let us grant him, then:
and now remains
00:53:26.040 --> 00:53:29.564
That we find out the cause
of this effect,
00:53:29.565 --> 00:53:32.223
Or rather say, the cause
of this defect,
00:53:32.224 --> 00:53:35.346
For this effect defective
comes by cause:
00:53:35.347 --> 00:53:39.252
Thus it remains, and the remainder thus.
00:53:39.956 --> 00:53:44.112
I have a daughter
--have while she is mine--
00:53:44.113 --> 00:53:46.986
Who, in her duty and obedience, mark,
00:53:46.987 --> 00:53:48.875
Hath given me this:
00:53:48.876 --> 00:53:51.816
now gather, and surmise.
00:53:52.714 --> 00:53:56.746
'To the celestial and my soul's idol,
00:53:56.781 --> 00:53:59.255
the most beautified Ophelia,'--
00:53:59.290 --> 00:54:01.945
Oh that's an ill phrase, a vile phrase
00:54:02.048 --> 00:54:07.564
'beautified' is a vile phrase:
but you shall hear. Thus:
00:54:07.986 --> 00:54:13.768
'In her excellent white bosom,
these, &c.'
00:54:18.114 --> 00:54:20.361
Came this from Hamlet to her?
00:54:20.362 --> 00:54:23.668
Good madam, stay awhile;
I will be faithful.
00:54:23.669 --> 00:54:27.341
'Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt that the sun doth move;
00:54:27.342 --> 00:54:32.060
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love.
00:54:32.061 --> 00:54:35.593
This, in obedience,
hath my daughter shown me, and more above
00:54:35.594 --> 00:54:38.201
But how hath she
Received his love?
00:54:38.615 --> 00:54:40.251
What do you think of me?
00:54:40.545 --> 00:54:43.277
As of a friend faithful and honourable.
00:54:43.278 --> 00:54:46.252
I would fain prove so.
But what might you think,
00:54:46.253 --> 00:54:50.292
When I had seen this hot love
on the wing--
00:54:50.293 --> 00:54:52.232
As I perceived it, I must tell you that,
00:54:52.233 --> 00:54:54.717
Before my daughter told me--
what might you,
00:54:54.718 --> 00:54:56.940
Or my dear majesty
your queen here, think,
00:54:56.941 --> 00:55:00.341
If I had given my heart a winking,
mute and dumb,
00:55:00.342 --> 00:55:02.589
Or look'd upon this love
with idle sight;
00:55:02.590 --> 00:55:04.356
No, I went round to work,
00:55:04.357 --> 00:55:06.860
And my young mistress
thus I did bespeak:
00:55:06.861 --> 00:55:10.340
'Lord Hamlet is a prince,
out of thy star;
00:55:10.341 --> 00:55:13.887
This must not be:'
and then I precepts gave her,
00:55:13.888 --> 00:55:16.449
That she should lock herself
from his resort,
00:55:16.450 --> 00:55:19.044
Admit no messengers,
receive no tokens.
00:55:19.045 --> 00:55:22.197
Which done, she took
the fruits of my advice;
00:55:22.198 --> 00:55:25.245
And he, repulsed--
a short tale to make--
00:55:25.246 --> 00:55:30.573
Fell into a sadness,
then into a fast,
00:55:30.574 --> 00:55:32.623
Thence to a watch,
thence into a weakness,
00:55:32.624 --> 00:55:35.714
Thence to a lightness,
and, by this declension,
00:55:35.715 --> 00:55:39.730
Into the madness wherein now he raves,
00:55:39.731 --> 00:55:41.887
And all we mourn for.
00:55:42.338 --> 00:55:44.231
Do you think 'tis this?
00:55:46.027 --> 00:55:49.760
It may be, very likely.
00:55:49.761 --> 00:55:53.186
Hath there been such a time--
I'd fain know that--
00:55:53.187 --> 00:55:56.064
That I have positively said 'Tis so,'
00:55:56.065 --> 00:55:57.561
When it proved otherwise?
00:55:57.596 --> 00:55:59.058
Not that I know.
00:55:59.108 --> 00:56:02.043
Take this from this,
if this be otherwise:
00:56:02.044 --> 00:56:05.574
If circumstances lead me,
I will find
00:56:05.575 --> 00:56:07.605
Where truth is hid,
though it were hid indeed
00:56:07.606 --> 00:56:09.388
Within the centre.
00:56:09.389 --> 00:56:11.380
How may we try this further?
00:56:12.082 --> 00:56:15.751
You know, sometimes he walks
four hours together
00:56:15.752 --> 00:56:17.049
Here in the lobby.
00:56:17.050 --> 00:56:18.268
So he does indeed.
00:56:18.269 --> 00:56:21.646
At such a time I'll
loose my daughter to him:
00:56:21.647 --> 00:56:23.627
Be you and I behind an arras then;
00:56:23.628 --> 00:56:25.784
Mark the encounter:
if he love her not
00:56:25.785 --> 00:56:28.564
And be not from his
reason fall'n thereon,
00:56:28.565 --> 00:56:33.536
Let me be no assistant for a state,
But keep a farm and carters.
00:56:33.537 --> 00:56:37.190
- We will try it.
- But, look, where sadly the poor wretch comes.
00:56:39.118 --> 00:56:41.033
Sweet Gertrude, leave us too;
00:56:41.034 --> 00:56:44.124
Her father and myself, lawful espials,
00:56:44.125 --> 00:56:47.109
us may of their encounter frankly judge,
00:56:47.110 --> 00:56:49.264
If 't be the affliction of his love or no
00:56:49.265 --> 00:56:50.562
That thus he suffers for.
00:56:50.563 --> 00:56:52.250
I shall obey you.
00:56:52.970 --> 00:56:56.677
And for your part, Ophelia,
00:56:59.313 --> 00:57:00.458
I do wish
00:57:00.459 --> 00:57:02.967
That your good beauties be the happy cause
00:57:02.968 --> 00:57:08.034
Of Hamlet's wildness:
so shall I hope your virtues
00:57:08.035 --> 00:57:10.500
Will bring him to his wonted way again,
00:57:10.501 --> 00:57:12.014
To both your honours.
00:57:12.015 --> 00:57:13.708
Madam, I wish it may.
00:57:16.876 --> 00:57:19.347
Ophelia, walk you here.
00:57:19.991 --> 00:57:22.459
Read on this book;
00:57:22.624 --> 00:57:27.263
That show of such an exercise
may colour your loneliness.
00:57:27.264 --> 00:57:30.186
- I hear him coming.
- Let's withdraw, my lord.
00:57:46.108 --> 00:57:48.232
To be, or not to be...
00:57:49.302 --> 00:57:51.062
that is the question.
00:58:00.170 --> 00:58:03.143
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
00:58:03.436 --> 00:58:06.918
The slings and arrows
of outrageous fortune,
00:58:07.794 --> 00:58:10.168
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
00:58:10.169 --> 00:58:13.112
And by opposing end them?
00:58:15.793 --> 00:58:17.310
To die,
00:58:19.277 --> 00:58:20.965
to sleep,
00:58:22.183 --> 00:58:23.810
No more.
00:58:25.293 --> 00:58:27.494
and by a sleep to say we end
00:58:27.495 --> 00:58:31.140
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
00:58:31.141 --> 00:58:33.308
That flesh is heir to
00:58:35.809 --> 00:58:37.859
'tis a consummation
00:58:39.214 --> 00:58:41.419
Devoutly to be wish'd.
00:58:42.238 --> 00:58:43.683
To die,
00:58:45.683 --> 00:58:47.435
to sleep;
00:58:51.245 --> 00:58:53.608
To sleep: perchance to dream:
00:58:53.672 --> 00:58:55.558
ay, there's the rub;
00:58:59.825 --> 00:59:03.653
For in that sleep of death
what dreams may come
00:59:03.654 --> 00:59:06.119
When we have shuffled off
this mortal coil,
00:59:06.120 --> 00:59:07.887
Must give us pause:
00:59:10.948 --> 00:59:12.856
there's the respect
00:59:13.683 --> 00:59:17.619
That makes calamity of so long life;
00:59:23.908 --> 00:59:27.837
For who would bear
the whips and scorns of time,
00:59:28.233 --> 00:59:30.933
But that the dread
of something after death,
00:59:33.698 --> 00:59:36.844
The undiscover'd country
from whose bourn
00:59:38.104 --> 00:59:43.089
No traveller returns,
puzzles the will,
00:59:48.077 --> 00:59:51.076
And makes us rather bear
those ills we have
00:59:51.229 --> 00:59:53.827
Than fly to others
that we know not of?
00:59:57.319 --> 01:00:02.339
Thus conscience does make
cowards of us all;
01:00:05.914 --> 01:00:09.993
And thus the native
hue of resolution
01:00:11.773 --> 01:00:16.162
Is sicklied o'er with
the pale cast of thought,
01:00:18.617 --> 01:00:21.866
And enterprises of
great pith and moment
01:00:22.638 --> 01:00:26.014
With this regard their
currents turn awry,
01:00:29.196 --> 01:00:32.544
And lose the name of action.
--Soft you now!
01:00:34.615 --> 01:00:36.554
The fair Ophelia!
01:00:38.096 --> 01:00:43.124
Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remember'd.
01:00:43.125 --> 01:00:46.865
Good my lord,
How does your honour for this many a day?
01:00:46.866 --> 01:00:49.062
I humbly thank you; well, well, well.
01:00:49.220 --> 01:00:52.503
My lord, I have remembrances of yours,
01:00:52.504 --> 01:00:56.241
That I have longed long to re-deliver;
01:00:56.518 --> 01:00:58.032
I pray you, now receive them.
01:00:58.033 --> 01:01:00.532
Not I; I never gave you aught.
01:01:02.332 --> 01:01:05.188
My honour'd lord, you know
right well you did;
01:01:05.782 --> 01:01:09.549
And, with them, words of
so sweet breath composed
01:01:09.550 --> 01:01:13.405
As made the things more rich:
their perfume lost,
01:01:13.406 --> 01:01:16.282
Take these again;
for to the noble mind
01:01:16.564 --> 01:01:19.965
Rich gifts wax poor
when givers prove unkind.
01:01:19.966 --> 01:01:21.514
There, my lord.
01:01:24.530 --> 01:01:26.779
- Are you honest?
- My lord?
01:01:29.020 --> 01:01:31.460
- Are you fair?
- What means your lordship?
01:01:34.403 --> 01:01:36.018
I did love you once.
01:01:36.019 --> 01:01:38.716
Indeed, my lord,
you made me believe so.
01:01:39.090 --> 01:01:40.608
You should not have believed me;
I loved you not.
01:01:40.609 --> 01:01:42.063
I was the more deceived.
01:01:43.635 --> 01:01:46.354
Get thee to a nunnery:
why wouldst thou be a breeder of sinners?
01:01:46.355 --> 01:01:47.831
I am myself indifferent honest;
01:01:47.832 --> 01:01:50.411
but yet I could accuse me of such things
01:01:50.446 --> 01:01:51.177
it would be better my mother had not borne me:
01:01:51.212 --> 01:01:54.526
What should such fellows as I do crawling
between earth and heaven?
01:01:54.527 --> 01:01:57.586
We are arrant knaves,
all; believe none of us.
01:01:57.587 --> 01:01:59.616
Go thy ways to a nunnery.
01:02:02.178 --> 01:02:03.570
Where's your father?
01:02:03.571 --> 01:02:05.133
At home, my lord.
01:02:13.477 --> 01:02:15.601
Let the doors be shut upon him,
01:02:15.849 --> 01:02:19.973
that he may play the
fool no where but in's own house.
01:02:19.974 --> 01:02:21.272
Farewell.
01:02:21.974 --> 01:02:23.629
O, help him, you sweet heavens!
01:02:23.630 --> 01:02:26.821
If thou dost marry, I'll give thee
this plague for thy dowry:
01:02:26.822 --> 01:02:28.957
be thou as chaste as ice,
as pure as snow,
01:02:28.992 --> 01:02:30.008
thou shalt not escape calumny.
01:02:30.258 --> 01:02:31.913
Get thee to a nunnery, go: farewell.
01:02:31.914 --> 01:02:34.441
Or, if thou wilt needs
marry, marry a fool;
01:02:34.442 --> 01:02:37.913
for wise men know well enough
what monsters you make of them.
01:02:37.914 --> 01:02:40.707
To a nunnery, go,
and quickly too. Farewell.
01:02:40.909 --> 01:02:42.681
O heavenly powers, restore him!
01:02:42.682 --> 01:02:46.071
You jig, you amble, and you lisp,
01:02:46.072 --> 01:02:48.796
and nick-name God's creatures,
01:02:48.831 --> 01:02:49.847
and make your wantonness
your ignorance.
01:02:49.897 --> 01:02:54.505
Go to, I'll no more on't; it hath
made me mad.
01:02:55.663 --> 01:02:58.067
I say, we will have no more marriages:
01:02:58.614 --> 01:03:02.369
those that are married already,
all but one, shall live;
01:03:02.550 --> 01:03:04.533
the rest shall keep as they are.
01:03:04.534 --> 01:03:06.128
To a nunnery, go.
01:03:08.972 --> 01:03:11.746
O, what a noble mind
is here o'erthrown!
01:03:13.849 --> 01:03:15.555
The courtier's,
01:03:15.849 --> 01:03:17.474
soldier's,
01:03:17.944 --> 01:03:19.756
scholar's, eye,
01:03:20.408 --> 01:03:23.098
tongue, sword;
01:03:25.299 --> 01:03:28.537
The expectancy and rose
of the fair state,
01:03:30.285 --> 01:03:32.744
The glass of fashion
01:03:33.346 --> 01:03:35.320
and the mould of form,
01:03:36.409 --> 01:03:39.005
The observed of all observers,
01:03:39.433 --> 01:03:40.908
quite,
01:03:42.097 --> 01:03:43.649
quite down!
01:03:45.751 --> 01:03:47.157
And I,
01:03:48.130 --> 01:03:51.932
of ladies most deject and wretched,
01:03:52.629 --> 01:03:57.566
That suck'd the honey
of his music vows,
01:03:57.907 --> 01:04:01.743
Now see that noble and most
sovereign reason,
01:04:01.744 --> 01:04:06.161
Like sweet bells jangled,
out of tune and harsh;
01:04:06.807 --> 01:04:10.470
That unmatch'd form
and feature of blown youth
01:04:10.472 --> 01:04:13.410
Blasted with ecstasy:
01:04:19.691 --> 01:04:21.785
O, woe is me,
01:04:23.193 --> 01:04:26.054
To have seen what I have seen,
01:04:26.834 --> 01:04:28.629
see what I see!
01:04:29.632 --> 01:04:33.238
Love! his affections
do not that way tend;
01:04:33.239 --> 01:04:35.377
There's something in his soul,
01:04:35.378 --> 01:04:38.344
O'er which his melancholy
sits on brood;
01:04:38.345 --> 01:04:40.688
And I do doubt the hatch
and the disclose
01:04:40.689 --> 01:04:42.493
Will be some danger:
01:04:46.655 --> 01:04:48.396
How now, Ophelia!
01:04:48.444 --> 01:04:51.032
You need not tell us
what Lord Hamlet said;
01:04:51.033 --> 01:04:53.451
We heard it all.
01:04:53.499 --> 01:04:56.248
Away, I do beseech you,
here he comes!
01:04:56.688 --> 01:04:58.740
I'll board him presently.
01:04:59.877 --> 01:05:02.908
How does my good Lord Hamlet?
01:05:08.062 --> 01:05:09.616
Well,
01:05:11.936 --> 01:05:13.532
God-a-mercy.
01:05:13.941 --> 01:05:16.747
Do you know me, my lord?
01:05:16.748 --> 01:05:19.803
Excellent well; you are a fishmonger.
01:05:19.804 --> 01:05:22.811
- Not I, my lord.
- Then I would you were so honest a man.
01:05:22.812 --> 01:05:23.634
Honest, my lord!
01:05:23.635 --> 01:05:25.592
Ay, sir; to be honest,
as this world goes, is to be
01:05:25.593 --> 01:05:28.781
one man picked out of ten thousand.
01:05:28.782 --> 01:05:30.373
That's very true, my lord.
01:05:30.374 --> 01:05:32.803
For if the sun breed maggots
in a dead dog, being a
01:05:32.804 --> 01:05:35.737
god kissing carrion,--
Have you a daughter?
01:05:35.738 --> 01:05:37.438
I have, my lord.
01:05:37.439 --> 01:05:39.313
Let her not walk i' the sun:
01:05:40.076 --> 01:05:43.988
conception is a blessing:
but not as your daughter may conceive.
01:05:45.251 --> 01:05:49.593
Friend, look to 't.
01:05:50.247 --> 01:05:53.428
How say you by that?
Still harping on my daughter:
01:05:53.748 --> 01:05:57.643
yet he knew me not at first;
he said I was a fishmonger:
01:05:57.676 --> 01:06:00.559
he is far gone, far gone:
01:06:01.022 --> 01:06:05.934
and truly in my youth I suffered
much extremity for love;
01:06:05.935 --> 01:06:09.592
very near this. I'll speak to him again.
01:06:12.178 --> 01:06:14.824
What do you read, my lord?
01:06:15.936 --> 01:06:17.294
Words,
01:06:19.002 --> 01:06:22.465
words, words?
01:06:22.671 --> 01:06:24.699
What is the matter, my lord?
01:06:25.021 --> 01:06:26.742
Between who?
01:06:26.743 --> 01:06:29.898
I mean, the matter that
you read, my lord.
01:06:29.899 --> 01:06:33.238
Slanders, sir:
for the satirical rogue says here
01:06:33.239 --> 01:06:36.149
that old men have grey beards,
01:06:38.290 --> 01:06:40.854
that their faces are wrinkled,
01:06:42.665 --> 01:06:46.633
their eyes purging thick amber and
plum-tree gum
01:06:47.002 --> 01:06:51.381
and that they have
a plentiful lack of wit,
01:06:51.382 --> 01:06:53.679
together with most weak hams:
01:06:53.680 --> 01:06:56.917
all which, sir,
though I most powerfully
and potently believe, yet
01:06:56.926 --> 01:06:59.697
I hold it not honesty
to have it thus set down,
01:07:00.688 --> 01:07:03.436
for yourself, sir, should be old as I am,
01:07:03.812 --> 01:07:07.134
if like a crab
you could go backward.
01:07:08.061 --> 01:07:11.501
Though this be madness,
yet there is method in 't.
01:07:12.243 --> 01:07:14.859
Will you walk out of the air, my lord?
01:07:14.860 --> 01:07:16.194
Into my grave.
01:07:17.104 --> 01:07:20.007
Indeed, that is out o' the air.
01:07:20.008 --> 01:07:23.069
How pregnant sometimes
his replies are!
01:07:24.092 --> 01:07:28.629
My honourable lord,
I will most humbly take my leave of you.
01:07:28.630 --> 01:07:31.901
You cannot, sir,
take from me any thing
01:07:31.936 --> 01:07:34.896
that I will
more willingly part withal:
01:07:35.478 --> 01:07:37.135
except my life,
01:07:39.008 --> 01:07:40.903
except my life,
01:07:43.085 --> 01:07:46.879
except my life.
01:07:49.780 --> 01:07:51.726
Fare you well, my lord.
01:07:52.599 --> 01:07:55.552
These tedious old fools!
01:07:56.500 --> 01:07:59.849
You go to seek the Lord Hamlet;
there he is.
01:07:59.850 --> 01:08:01.373
God save you, sir!
01:08:02.804 --> 01:08:05.663
- My honoured lord!
- My most dear lord!
01:08:08.505 --> 01:08:12.726
My excellent good friends!
How dost thou, Guildenstern?
01:08:13.193 --> 01:08:16.567
Rosencrantz!
Good lads, how do ye both?
01:08:16.568 --> 01:08:19.176
As the indifferent children of the earth.
01:08:19.178 --> 01:08:22.691
Happy, in that we are not over-happy;
01:08:22.837 --> 01:08:25.049
On fortune's cap we are
not the very button.
01:08:25.050 --> 01:08:27.817
- Nor the soles of her shoes?
- Neither, my lord.
01:08:27.819 --> 01:08:31.131
Then you live about her waist,
or in the middle of her favours?
01:08:31.133 --> 01:08:32.562
'Faith, her privates we.
01:08:34.415 --> 01:08:36.950
In the secret parts of fortune?
01:08:36.951 --> 01:08:39.077
Most true; she is a strumpet.
01:08:39.078 --> 01:08:41.790
- What's the news?
- None, my lord,
01:08:42.323 --> 01:08:44.587
but that the world's grown honest.
01:08:44.663 --> 01:08:46.656
Then is doomsday near:
01:08:48.243 --> 01:08:51.069
but your news is not true.
Let me question more in particular:
01:08:51.069 --> 01:08:55.634
what have you, my good friends,
deserved at the hands of fortune,
01:08:55.635 --> 01:08:57.430
that she sends you to prison hither?
01:08:57.430 --> 01:09:00.310
- Prison, my lord!
- Denmark's a prison.
01:09:00.560 --> 01:09:02.188
Then is the world one.
01:09:02.189 --> 01:09:05.962
A goodly one; in which there are many confines,
wards and dungeons,
01:09:05.962 --> 01:09:08.542
Denmark being one o' the worst.
01:09:09.071 --> 01:09:11.438
We think not so, my lord.
01:09:12.631 --> 01:09:14.336
Why, then, 'tis none to you;
01:09:14.337 --> 01:09:17.685
for there is nothing either good or bad,
but thinking makes it so:
01:09:19.508 --> 01:09:21.131
to me it is a prison.
01:09:21.729 --> 01:09:24.853
Why then, your ambition makes it one;
01:09:26.537 --> 01:09:28.964
'tis too narrow for your mind.
01:09:28.965 --> 01:09:30.491
O God,
01:09:30.904 --> 01:09:33.194
I could be bounded in a nut shell,
01:09:33.196 --> 01:09:36.256
and count myself a king of infinite space,
01:09:38.375 --> 01:09:41.372
were it not that I have bad dreams.
01:09:43.243 --> 01:09:45.538
- Shall we to the court?
- We'll wait upon you.
01:09:46.529 --> 01:09:47.995
No such matter:
01:09:49.356 --> 01:09:51.917
I will not sort you with the rest
of my servants,
01:09:54.006 --> 01:09:56.990
But, in the beaten way of friendship,
what make you at Elsinore?
01:09:57.633 --> 01:09:59.976
To visit you, my lord;
no other occasion.
01:09:59.977 --> 01:10:01.477
Were you not sent for?
01:10:03.856 --> 01:10:05.728
Is it your own inclining?
01:10:07.979 --> 01:10:10.135
A free visitation?
01:10:11.405 --> 01:10:13.322
Come, deal justly with me:
01:10:14.494 --> 01:10:16.760
- Come; nay, speak.
- What should we say, my lord?
01:10:16.761 --> 01:10:18.164
Why, any thing, but to the purpose.
01:10:18.165 --> 01:10:21.071
You were sent for; and there is
a kind of confession in your looks
01:10:21.072 --> 01:10:23.384
which your modesties have not
craft enough to colour:
01:10:23.385 --> 01:10:25.260
I know the good king and queen
have sent for you.
01:10:25.261 --> 01:10:26.537
To what end, my lord?
01:10:26.538 --> 01:10:28.281
That you must teach me.
01:10:29.257 --> 01:10:31.570
But let me conjure you, by
the rights of our fellowship,
01:10:31.571 --> 01:10:35.034
be even and direct with me,
whether you were sent for, or no?
01:10:37.259 --> 01:10:38.688
What say you?
01:10:38.723 --> 01:10:41.893
Nay, then, I have an eye of you.--
If you love me, hold not off.
01:10:43.760 --> 01:10:45.541
My lord, we were sent for.
01:10:47.602 --> 01:10:49.497
I will tell you why;
01:10:50.881 --> 01:10:54.444
so shall my anticipation
prevent your discovery,
01:10:55.696 --> 01:10:59.540
and your secrecy to the king
and queen moult no feather.
01:11:02.258 --> 01:11:03.749
I have
01:11:04.037 --> 01:11:05.602
of late--
01:11:07.430 --> 01:11:09.590
but wherefore I know not--
01:11:11.289 --> 01:11:13.342
lost all my mirth,
01:11:16.697 --> 01:11:19.083
forgone all custom of exercise;
01:11:19.811 --> 01:11:22.996
and indeed it goes so heavily
with my disposition
01:11:22.997 --> 01:11:25.489
that this goodly frame, the earth,
01:11:26.431 --> 01:11:29.696
seems to me a sterile promontory,
01:11:32.506 --> 01:11:35.030
this most excellent canopy, the air,
01:11:35.102 --> 01:11:38.973
look you, this brave
o'erhanging firmament,
01:11:38.974 --> 01:11:43.911
this majestical roof fretted
with golden fire...
01:11:45.661 --> 01:11:47.944
why, it appears no other thing to me
01:11:47.945 --> 01:11:52.682
than a foul and pestilent
congregation of vapours.
01:11:56.542 --> 01:11:59.478
What a piece of work is a man!
01:12:02.194 --> 01:12:04.090
how noble in reason!
01:12:05.130 --> 01:12:07.378
how infinite in faculty!
01:12:08.879 --> 01:12:12.629
in form and moving how
express and admirable!
01:12:14.026 --> 01:12:16.291
in action how like an angel!
01:12:18.084 --> 01:12:20.754
in apprehension how like a god!
01:12:23.161 --> 01:12:25.254
the beauty of the world!
01:12:26.379 --> 01:12:28.440
the paragon of animals!
01:12:28.817 --> 01:12:31.192
And yet, to me, what is this...
01:12:33.737 --> 01:12:36.191
quintessence of dust?
01:12:38.794 --> 01:12:42.434
man delights not me:
01:12:44.947 --> 01:12:46.359
no, nor woman neither,
01:12:46.360 --> 01:12:48.228
though by your smiling
you seem to say so.
01:12:48.291 --> 01:12:50.276
My lord, there was no such
stuff in my thoughts.
01:12:50.277 --> 01:12:53.217
Why did you laugh then,
when I said 'man delights not me'?
01:12:53.480 --> 01:12:56.744
To think, my lord,
if you delight not in man,
01:12:56.951 --> 01:13:00.433
what lenten entertainment the players
shall receive from you:
01:13:00.805 --> 01:13:02.293
we coted them on the way;
01:13:02.294 --> 01:13:05.291
- and hither are they coming, to offer you service.
- What players are they?
01:13:05.292 --> 01:13:08.734
Even those you were wont to take delight in,
the tragedians of the city.
01:13:10.056 --> 01:13:12.264
He that plays the king shall be welcome;
01:13:14.214 --> 01:13:16.358
his majesty
shall have tribute of me;
01:13:17.930 --> 01:13:21.141
It is not very strange;
for mine uncle is king of Denmark,
01:13:21.202 --> 01:13:24.401
and those that would make mows at him while
my father lived,
01:13:24.402 --> 01:13:27.576
give twenty, forty, fifty, an
hundred ducats a-piece for his picture
01:13:27.577 --> 01:13:28.647
in little.
01:13:28.648 --> 01:13:29.700
'Sblood,
01:13:30.119 --> 01:13:31.434
there is something in this more than natural,
01:13:31.435 --> 01:13:33.276
if philosophy could find it out.
01:13:33.277 --> 01:13:34.204
There are the players.
01:13:34.239 --> 01:13:36.275
Gentlemen, you are welcome to Elsinore.
01:13:36.493 --> 01:13:38.045
Come then your hands.
01:13:40.994 --> 01:13:45.101
My uncle-father and aunt-mother
are deceived.
01:13:45.102 --> 01:13:46.649
In what, my dear lord?
01:13:46.929 --> 01:13:50.554
I am but mad north-north-west:
01:13:51.736 --> 01:13:56.898
when the wind is southerly
I know a hawk from a handsaw.
01:13:57.368 --> 01:13:58.991
Well be with you, gentlemen!
01:13:58.992 --> 01:14:01.837
Hark you, Guildenstern; and you too:
at each ear a hearer:
01:14:01.838 --> 01:14:06.803
that great baby you see there is not yet
out of his swaddling-clouts.
01:14:06.804 --> 01:14:10.709
Happily he's the second time come to them;
for they say an old man is twice a child.
01:14:10.868 --> 01:14:12.423
I will prophesy he comes
to tell me of the players;
01:14:12.424 --> 01:14:13.775
mark it.
01:14:13.776 --> 01:14:16.461
You say right, sir:
o' Monday morning; 'twas so indeed.
01:14:16.462 --> 01:14:18.325
My lord, I have news to tell you.
01:14:18.326 --> 01:14:19.992
My lord, I have news to tell you.
01:14:19.993 --> 01:14:24.383
- When Roscius was an actor in Rome,--
- The actors are come hither, my lord.
01:14:24.384 --> 01:14:27.757
- Buz, buz! - Upon mine honour,--
- Then came each actor on his ass,--
01:14:27.758 --> 01:14:32.675
The best actors in the world,
either for tragedy, comedy, history,
01:14:32.676 --> 01:14:37.741
pastoral, pastoral-comical,
historical-pastoral,
01:14:37.742 --> 01:14:42.115
tragical-historical, tragicalcomical-
historical-pastoral,
01:14:42.116 --> 01:14:44.800
scene individable, or poem unlimited:
01:14:44.801 --> 01:14:48.458
Seneca cannot be too heavy, nor
Plautus too light.
01:14:48.459 --> 01:14:52.273
O Jephthah, judge of Israel,
what a treasure hadst thou!
01:14:52.274 --> 01:14:54.270
What a treasure had he, my lord?
01:14:54.271 --> 01:14:57.021
Why,
'One fair daughter and no more,
The which he loved passing well.'
01:14:57.022 --> 01:15:00.740
- Still on my daughter.
- Am I not i' the right, old Jephthah?
01:15:00.741 --> 01:15:05.209
If you call me Jephthah, my lord,
I have a daughter that I love passing well.
01:15:05.210 --> 01:15:07.508
Nay, that follows not.
01:15:07.509 --> 01:15:11.208
- What follows, then, my lord?
- You are welcome, masters; welcome, all.
01:15:11.209 --> 01:15:14.088
I am glad to see thee well.
Welcome, good friends.
01:15:14.089 --> 01:15:16.301
O, my old friend!
01:15:16.859 --> 01:15:19.354
What, my young
lady and mistress!
01:15:19.454 --> 01:15:20.615
By'r lady, your ladyship is nearer
01:15:20.616 --> 01:15:21.677
to heaven than when I last saw you ,
01:15:21.678 --> 01:15:22.571
Pray God, your voice,
01:15:22.572 --> 01:15:23.504
be not cracked within the ring.
01:15:23.539 --> 01:15:24.807
That we'll have a speech straight:
01:15:24.842 --> 01:15:28.956
come, give us a taste of your quality;
come, a passionate speech.
01:15:28.957 --> 01:15:30.705
What speech, my lord?
01:15:30.706 --> 01:15:33.173
I heard thee speak me a speech once,
but it was never acted;
01:15:33.174 --> 01:15:37.196
or, if it was, not above once; for the
play, I remember, pleased not the million;
01:15:37.269 --> 01:15:39.041
'twas caviare to the general:
01:15:39.042 --> 01:15:42.518
One speech in it I chiefly loved:
'twas Aeneas' tale to Dido;
01:15:42.550 --> 01:15:45.714
and thereabout of it especially,
where he speaks of Priam's slaughter.
01:15:45.715 --> 01:15:48.008
if it live in your memory,
begin at this line:
01:15:48.740 --> 01:15:51.236
let me see, let me see--
01:15:51.237 --> 01:15:54.958
'The rugged Pyrrhus, like the Hyrcanian beast'--
it is not so:--
01:15:56.312 --> 01:15:58.312
it begins with Pyrrhus:--
'The rugged Pyrrhus,
01:15:58.313 --> 01:16:00.706
- "he whose sable arms..."
- "whose sable arms"!
01:16:00.707 --> 01:16:04.655
Ehm... Black as his purpose,
did the night resemble
01:16:07.062 --> 01:16:09.999
Ehm... When he lay couched
in the ominous horse,
01:16:10.000 --> 01:16:14.219
Hath now this dread and
black complexion smear'd
01:16:14.343 --> 01:16:17.489
With heraldry more dismal;
head to foot
01:16:17.688 --> 01:16:21.469
- Now is he...
- total...
01:16:21.470 --> 01:16:24.278
total gules
roasted in wrath
01:16:24.279 --> 01:16:28.954
And thus o'er-sized with coagulate gore,
01:16:28.955 --> 01:16:33.064
With eyes like carbuncles,
the hellish Pyrrhus
01:16:35.802 --> 01:16:38.355
the hellish Pyrrhus...
01:16:38.650 --> 01:16:42.305
Old grandsire Priam seeks.'
01:16:42.306 --> 01:16:43.648
So, proceed you.
01:16:43.649 --> 01:16:45.754
'Fore God, my lord, well spoken,
01:16:45.755 --> 01:16:48.247
with good accent and
good discretion.
01:16:52.232 --> 01:16:55.001
'Anon he finds him
01:16:55.450 --> 01:16:58.929
Striking too short at Greeks;
his antique sword,
01:16:58.930 --> 01:17:01.932
Rebellious to his arm,
lies where it falls,
01:17:01.933 --> 01:17:06.649
Repugnant to command:
unequal match'd,
01:17:06.890 --> 01:17:11.013
Pyrrhus at Priam drives;
in rage strikes wide;
01:17:11.014 --> 01:17:15.576
But with the whiff
and wind of his fell sword
01:17:15.870 --> 01:17:18.714
The unnerved father falls.
01:17:19.436 --> 01:17:22.586
Then senseless Ilium,
01:17:22.587 --> 01:17:25.730
Seeming to feel this blow,
with flaming top
01:17:25.731 --> 01:17:29.187
Stoops to his base,
and with a hideous crash
01:17:29.188 --> 01:17:33.711
Takes prisoner Pyrrhus' ear:
for, lo! his sword,
01:17:33.712 --> 01:17:35.742
Which was declining on the milky head
01:17:35.743 --> 01:17:40.744
Of reverend Priam, seem'd
i' the air to stick:
01:17:42.217 --> 01:17:43.487
So,
01:17:44.222 --> 01:17:48.774
as a painted tyrant, Pyrrhus stood,
01:17:48.866 --> 01:17:52.046
And like a neutral to his will and matter,
01:17:53.836 --> 01:17:55.492
Did nothing.
01:17:56.325 --> 01:18:00.054
But, as we often see,
against some storm,
01:18:00.055 --> 01:18:03.020
A silence in the heavens,
the rack stand still,
01:18:03.021 --> 01:18:07.053
The bold winds speechless
and the orb below
01:18:07.054 --> 01:18:09.244
As hush as death,
01:18:09.886 --> 01:18:13.208
anon the dreadful thunder
01:18:13.209 --> 01:18:18.603
Doth rend the region, so,
after Pyrrhus' pause,
01:18:18.958 --> 01:18:22.304
Aroused vengeance sets him
new a-work;
01:18:22.305 --> 01:18:24.893
And never did the Cyclops'
hammers fall
01:18:24.894 --> 01:18:28.457
On Mars's armour forged
for proof eterne
01:18:28.458 --> 01:18:32.367
With less remorse than Pyrrhus'
bleeding sword
01:18:32.368 --> 01:18:34.645
Now falls on Priam.
01:18:34.646 --> 01:18:36.396
This is too long.
01:18:36.397 --> 01:18:39.207
It shall to the barber's, with your beard.
Prithee, say on:
01:18:39.208 --> 01:18:41.913
he's for a jig or a tale of bawdry,
or he sleeps:
01:18:41.914 --> 01:18:44.699
say on: come to Hecuba.
01:18:47.269 --> 01:18:49.116
'But who,
01:18:50.737 --> 01:18:53.494
O, who had seen the mobled queen--'
01:18:53.495 --> 01:18:57.417
- 'The mobled queen?
- That's good; 'mobled queen' is good.
01:19:00.238 --> 01:19:01.768
'Run
01:19:02.211 --> 01:19:05.377
barefoot up and down,
01:19:06.087 --> 01:19:11.010
threatening the flames
With bisson rheum; a clout upon that head
01:19:11.011 --> 01:19:14.489
Where late the diadem stood,
01:19:16.146 --> 01:19:19.919
and for a robe,
About her lank and all o'er-teemed loins,
01:19:19.920 --> 01:19:23.928
A blanket, in the alarm of fear caught up;
01:19:24.542 --> 01:19:28.005
Who this had seen,
with tongue in venom steep'd,
01:19:28.006 --> 01:19:31.444
'Gainst Fortune's state
would treason have pronounced:
01:19:32.834 --> 01:19:35.755
But if the gods themselves
did see her then
01:19:36.209 --> 01:19:39.898
When she saw Pyrrhus
make malicious sport
01:19:40.444 --> 01:19:44.302
In mincing with his
sword her husband's limbs,
01:19:45.680 --> 01:19:49.604
The instant burst
of clamour that she made,
01:19:51.129 --> 01:19:54.241
Unless things mortal
move them not at all,
01:19:55.318 --> 01:19:59.535
Would have made milch
the burning eyes of heaven,
01:20:01.365 --> 01:20:05.304
And passion in the gods.'
01:20:07.942 --> 01:20:13.020
Look, whether he has not turned his colour
and has tears in's eyes.
01:20:13.021 --> 01:20:14.957
Pray you, no more.
01:20:15.306 --> 01:20:16.915
'Tis well:
01:20:17.077 --> 01:20:19.308
I'll have thee speak out the rest soon.
01:20:21.980 --> 01:20:24.039
My lord, will you see
the players well bestowed?
01:20:24.040 --> 01:20:25.307
Do you hear, let them be well used;
01:20:25.308 --> 01:20:28.147
for they are the abstract
and brief chronicles of the time.
01:20:28.148 --> 01:20:31.836
My lord, I will use them
according to their desert.
01:20:31.837 --> 01:20:34.555
God's bodykins, man, much better!
01:20:36.479 --> 01:20:39.431
Use every man after his desert,
and who should 'scape whipping?
01:20:39.557 --> 01:20:41.080
Come, sirs.
01:20:41.115 --> 01:20:43.402
Follow him, friends:
we'll hear a play to-morrow..
01:20:43.917 --> 01:20:45.681
Dost thou hear me, old friend;
01:20:45.899 --> 01:20:48.352
can you play the
Murder of Gonzago?
01:20:48.353 --> 01:20:50.100
- Ay, my lord.
- We'll ha't to-morrow night.
01:20:50.101 --> 01:20:54.587
You could, for a need, study a speech
of some dozen or sixteen lines,
01:20:54.588 --> 01:20:57.164
which I would set down
and insert in't, could you not?
01:20:57.165 --> 01:20:59.140
- Ay, my lord.
- Very well.
01:20:59.242 --> 01:21:03.057
Follow that lord;
and pray you mock him not.
01:21:03.058 --> 01:21:05.664
Ehm... no.
01:21:08.533 --> 01:21:11.153
My good friends,
I'll leave you till night:
01:21:12.907 --> 01:21:14.110
you are welcome to Elsinore.
01:21:14.111 --> 01:21:15.560
Good my lord!
01:21:20.515 --> 01:21:22.245
God be wi' ye;
01:21:39.180 --> 01:21:40.829
Now I am alone.
01:21:50.245 --> 01:21:54.119
O, what a rogue and peasant
slave am I!
01:21:58.431 --> 01:22:01.453
Is it not monstrous that
this player here,
01:22:03.953 --> 01:22:05.953
But in a fiction,
01:22:07.324 --> 01:22:09.671
in a dream of passion,
01:22:11.152 --> 01:22:15.078
Could force his soul so
to his own conceit
01:22:15.079 --> 01:22:18.244
That from her working
all his visage wann'd,
01:22:21.182 --> 01:22:25.540
Tears in his eyes,
distraction in's aspect,
01:22:25.541 --> 01:22:28.154
A broken voice,
and his whole function suiting
01:22:28.155 --> 01:22:30.305
With forms to his conceit?
01:22:34.306 --> 01:22:36.541
and all for nothing!
01:22:36.542 --> 01:22:38.211
For Hecuba!
01:22:42.056 --> 01:22:45.014
What's Hecuba to him,
or he to Hecuba,
01:22:45.102 --> 01:22:47.088
That he should weep for her?
01:22:50.241 --> 01:22:51.585
What would he do,
01:22:51.586 --> 01:22:54.430
Had he the motive
and the cue for passion
01:22:54.431 --> 01:22:59.337
That I have? He would drown
the stage with tears
01:23:00.101 --> 01:23:03.055
And cleave the general ear
with horrid speech,
01:23:03.056 --> 01:23:07.147
Make mad the guilty and appal the free,
01:23:08.418 --> 01:23:10.740
Confound the ignorant, and amaze indeed
01:23:10.741 --> 01:23:14.803
The very faculties of eyes and ears.
Yet I,
01:23:17.837 --> 01:23:21.553
A dull and muddy-mettled rascal, peak,
01:23:23.106 --> 01:23:25.552
Like John-a-dreams,
01:23:25.826 --> 01:23:29.520
unpregnant of my cause,
And can say nothing;
01:23:29.521 --> 01:23:31.741
no, not for a king,
01:23:34.137 --> 01:23:36.634
Upon whose property and most dear life
01:23:36.635 --> 01:23:38.865
A damn'd defeat was made.
01:23:49.459 --> 01:23:51.214
Am I a coward?
01:23:53.947 --> 01:23:55.789
Who calls me villain?
01:23:56.615 --> 01:23:58.490
breaks my pate across?
01:23:58.865 --> 01:24:02.178
Plucks off my beard,
and blows it in my face?
01:24:02.553 --> 01:24:03.698
Tweaks me by the nose?
01:24:03.699 --> 01:24:07.958
gives me the lie i' the throat,
As deep as to the lungs? who does me this?
Ha!
01:24:08.351 --> 01:24:11.925
'Swounds, I should take it:
for it cannot be
01:24:11.926 --> 01:24:16.261
But I am pigeon-liver'd and lack gall
01:24:16.262 --> 01:24:18.897
To make oppression bitter, or ere this
01:24:18.898 --> 01:24:22.570
I should have fatted
all the region kites
01:24:22.571 --> 01:24:24.927
With this slave's offal:
01:24:26.051 --> 01:24:28.363
bloody, bawdy villain!
01:24:28.364 --> 01:24:32.852
Remorseless, treacherous,
lecherous, kindless villain!
01:24:32.853 --> 01:24:34.987
O, vengeance!
01:24:38.175 --> 01:24:40.321
Why, what an ass am I!
01:24:42.348 --> 01:24:44.424
This is most brave,
01:24:47.721 --> 01:24:51.363
That I, the son of a dear father
01:24:51.861 --> 01:24:53.417
murder'd,
01:24:55.616 --> 01:24:58.379
Prompted to my revenge
by heaven and hell,
01:24:58.552 --> 01:25:02.948
Must, like a whore,
unpack my heart with words,
01:25:03.449 --> 01:25:06.051
And fall a-cursing, like a very drab,
01:25:06.052 --> 01:25:09.915
A scullion! Fie upon't! foh!
01:25:10.073 --> 01:25:11.771
About, my brain!
01:25:15.943 --> 01:25:17.231
I have heard
01:25:17.232 --> 01:25:21.332
That guilty creatures
sitting at a play
01:25:22.364 --> 01:25:24.081
Have by the very cunning
of the scene
01:25:24.082 --> 01:25:26.221
Been struck so to the soul
that presently
01:25:26.222 --> 01:25:29.386
They have proclaim'd
their malefactions;
01:25:29.612 --> 01:25:32.426
For murder, though it have no tongue,
will speak
01:25:33.081 --> 01:25:35.544
With most miraculous organ.
01:25:36.886 --> 01:25:37.911
I'll have these players
01:25:37.912 --> 01:25:40.894
Play something like
the murder of my father
01:25:40.895 --> 01:25:42.823
Before mine uncle.
01:25:43.042 --> 01:25:47.394
I'll observe his looks;
I'll tent him to the quick:
01:25:47.395 --> 01:25:49.163
if he but blench,
01:25:50.496 --> 01:25:51.915
I know my course.
01:25:56.144 --> 01:25:59.394
The spirit that I have seen
May be the devil: and the devil hath power
01:25:59.395 --> 01:26:01.832
To assume a pleasing shape; yea,
and perhaps
01:26:01.833 --> 01:26:03.863
Out of my weakness
and my melancholy,
01:26:03.864 --> 01:26:07.113
As he is very potent with such spirits,
Abuses me to damn me:
01:26:09.097 --> 01:26:12.174
I'll have grounds
More relative than this:
01:26:13.488 --> 01:26:15.269
the play 's the thing
01:26:15.270 --> 01:26:18.548
Wherein I'll catch
the conscience of the king.
01:26:18.675 --> 01:26:20.799
And can you, by no drift
of circumstance,
01:26:20.800 --> 01:26:23.799
Get from him why he puts
on this confusion,
01:26:23.800 --> 01:26:27.019
He does confess he feels himself
distracted;
01:26:27.020 --> 01:26:30.068
But from what cause
he will by no means speak.
01:26:30.069 --> 01:26:32.078
Nor do we find him
forward to be sounded,
01:26:32.079 --> 01:26:34.766
But, with a crafty madness,
keeps aloof,
01:26:34.767 --> 01:26:37.520
When we would bring him on to some
confession Of his true state.
01:26:37.521 --> 01:26:39.271
Did he receive you well?
01:26:39.272 --> 01:26:42.734
- Most like a gentleman.
- But with much forcing of his disposition.
01:26:42.735 --> 01:26:46.014
Niggard of question; but, of our demands,
Most free in his reply.
01:26:46.015 --> 01:26:48.255
Did you assay him?
To any pastime?
01:26:48.256 --> 01:26:50.173
Madam, it so fell out,
that certain players
01:26:50.174 --> 01:26:53.235
We o'er-raught on the way:
of these we told him;
01:26:53.236 --> 01:26:56.266
And there did seem in him
a kind of joy to hear of it.
01:26:56.267 --> 01:26:57.235
'Tis most true.
01:26:57.236 --> 01:27:01.609
And he beseech'd me to entreat your majesties
To hear and see the matter.
01:27:01.610 --> 01:27:05.034
With all my heart;
and it doth much content me
01:27:05.035 --> 01:27:06.520
To hear him so inclined.
01:27:06.521 --> 01:27:08.487
Good gentlemen,
give him a further edge,
01:27:08.488 --> 01:27:11.139
And drive his purpose
on to these delights.
01:27:11.140 --> 01:27:12.734
We shall, my lord.
01:27:16.541 --> 01:27:18.930
I have in quick determination
Thus set it down:
01:27:18.931 --> 01:27:20.806
he shall with speed to England,
01:27:20.807 --> 01:27:23.389
Haply the seas and countries different
01:27:23.390 --> 01:27:25.243
With variable objects shall expel
01:27:25.244 --> 01:27:29.171
This something-settled
matter in his heart,
01:27:29.172 --> 01:27:32.055
Whereon his brains still beating
puts him thus
01:27:32.056 --> 01:27:34.741
From fashion of himself.
What think you on't?
01:27:34.742 --> 01:27:37.554
It shall do well:
but yet do I believe
01:27:37.555 --> 01:27:39.912
The origin and commencement
of his grief
01:27:39.913 --> 01:27:42.231
Sprung from neglected love.
01:27:42.489 --> 01:27:44.268
My lord, do as you please;
01:27:44.269 --> 01:27:47.583
But, if you hold it fit,
after the play
01:27:47.584 --> 01:27:50.634
Let his queen mother
all alone entreat him
01:27:50.635 --> 01:27:54.331
To show his grief:
let her be round with him;
01:27:54.332 --> 01:27:57.799
And I'll be placed,
so please you, in the ear
01:27:57.800 --> 01:28:00.845
Of all their conference.
If she find him not,
01:28:00.846 --> 01:28:04.159
To England send him,
or confine him
01:28:04.160 --> 01:28:05.795
where your wisdom best shall think.
01:28:05.796 --> 01:28:07.422
It shall be so:
01:28:08.266 --> 01:28:11.764
Madness in great ones
must not unwatch'd go.
01:28:13.797 --> 01:28:16.339
Speak the speech, I pray you,
as I pronounced it to you,
01:28:16.340 --> 01:28:18.759
trippingly on the tongue:
but if you mouth it,
01:28:18.894 --> 01:28:23.206
as many of your players do, I had as lief the
town-crier spoke my lines.
01:28:23.207 --> 01:28:28.855
Nor do not saw the air
too much with your hand,
01:28:28.856 --> 01:28:34.096
thus, but use all gently;
for in the very torrent, tempest,
01:28:34.097 --> 01:28:36.770
and, as I may say,
the whirlwind of passion,
01:28:36.771 --> 01:28:38.483
you must acquire and beget a temperance
01:28:38.484 --> 01:28:40.199
that may give it smoothness.
01:28:40.200 --> 01:28:43.548
O, it offends me to the soul
to hear a robustious
01:28:43.549 --> 01:28:46.763
periwig-pated fellow tear
a passion to tatters,
01:28:46.764 --> 01:28:49.732
to very rags, to split
the ears of the groundlings,
01:28:49.733 --> 01:28:52.039
who for the most part
are capable of nothing but
01:28:52.208 --> 01:28:54.699
inexplicable dumbshows and noise:
01:28:54.700 --> 01:28:57.634
I would have such a fellow
whipped for o'erdoing Termagant;
01:28:57.635 --> 01:29:00.563
it out-herods Herod:
pray you, avoid it.
01:29:00.564 --> 01:29:02.326
I warrant your honour.
01:29:03.264 --> 01:29:05.794
Be not too tame neither,
01:29:06.108 --> 01:29:08.636
but let your own discretion
be your tutor:
01:29:09.120 --> 01:29:12.186
suit the action to the word,
the word to the action;
01:29:12.187 --> 01:29:14.240
with this special o'erstep
01:29:14.275 --> 01:29:16.953
you o'erstep not
the modesty of nature:
01:29:17.044 --> 01:29:19.056
for any thing so overdone is
01:29:19.057 --> 01:29:21.313
from the purpose of playing,
whose end,
01:29:21.314 --> 01:29:26.604
both at the first and last, was and is,
to hold, as 'twere, the mirror up to nature;
01:29:29.327 --> 01:29:31.573
to show virtue her own feature,
01:29:32.750 --> 01:29:34.939
scorn her own image
01:29:35.702 --> 01:29:37.981
the very age and body of the time
01:29:38.464 --> 01:29:40.452
his form and pressure.
01:29:40.510 --> 01:29:42.542
Now this overdone,
or come tardy off,
01:29:42.543 --> 01:29:44.594
though it make the unskilful laugh
01:29:44.595 --> 01:29:47.478
cannot but make the judicious grieve;
01:29:47.848 --> 01:29:50.062
the censure of the which one
must in your allowance
01:29:50.097 --> 01:29:51.823
o'erweigh a whole theatre of others.
01:29:51.824 --> 01:29:55.438
I hope we have reformed
that indifferently with us, sir.
01:29:56.840 --> 01:29:58.323
Reform it altogether.
01:30:00.269 --> 01:30:03.156
And let those that play your clowns
01:30:03.157 --> 01:30:05.623
speak no more than is set down for them;
01:30:05.624 --> 01:30:07.520
for there be of them
that will themselves laugh,
01:30:07.521 --> 01:30:10.686
to set on some quantity of
barren spectators to laugh too
01:30:10.687 --> 01:30:12.192
though, in the mean time,
some necessary question
01:30:12.193 --> 01:30:13.998
of the play be then to be considered:
01:30:13.999 --> 01:30:14.889
that's villanous,
01:30:14.924 --> 01:30:18.320
and shows a most pitiful ambition
in the fool that uses it.
01:30:19.067 --> 01:30:22.101
Go, make you ready.
Good, my lord!
01:30:22.740 --> 01:30:24.557
Will the king hear this piece of work?
01:30:24.558 --> 01:30:28.019
And the queen too, and that presently.
01:30:28.114 --> 01:30:29.758
Bid the players make haste.
01:30:33.037 --> 01:30:35.000
Will you two help to hasten them?
01:30:35.001 --> 01:30:36.608
We will, my lord.
01:30:47.058 --> 01:30:49.880
- What ho! Horatio!
- Here, sweet lord, at your service.
01:30:49.881 --> 01:30:53.445
Horatio, thou art e'en as just a man
As e'er my conversation coped withal.
01:30:53.646 --> 01:30:54.946
O, my dear lord,--
01:30:55.046 --> 01:30:57.330
Nay, do not think I flatter;
Dost thou hear?
01:30:57.475 --> 01:30:59.272
Since my dear soul was
mistress of her choice
01:30:59.273 --> 01:31:02.510
And could of men distinguish, her election
Hath seal'd thee for herself;
01:31:04.211 --> 01:31:05.115
Give me that man
01:31:05.216 --> 01:31:08.021
That is not passion's slave,
and I will wear him
01:31:08.022 --> 01:31:12.542
In my heart's core,
ay, in my heart of heart,
01:31:13.220 --> 01:31:15.006
As I do thee.--
Something too much of this.--
01:31:15.007 --> 01:31:18.893
There is a play to-night
before the king;
01:31:19.572 --> 01:31:23.677
One scene of it comes near the circumstance
Which I have told thee of my father's death:
01:31:24.365 --> 01:31:26.818
I prithee, when thou seest that act afoot,
01:31:26.819 --> 01:31:30.088
Even with the very comment of thy soul
Observe mine uncle:
01:31:30.123 --> 01:31:31.758
if his occulted guilt
01:31:31.759 --> 01:31:33.806
Do not itself unkennel in one speech,
01:31:35.919 --> 01:31:38.497
It is a damned ghost that we have seen,
01:31:38.612 --> 01:31:42.194
And my imaginations are as foul
As Vulcan's stithy.
01:31:42.195 --> 01:31:42.982
Well, my lord:
01:31:43.195 --> 01:31:45.481
If he steal aught the whilst
this play is playing,
01:31:45.516 --> 01:31:47.362
And 'scape detecting,
I will pay the theft.
01:31:48.257 --> 01:31:49.450
They are coming to the play.
01:31:49.451 --> 01:31:51.571
I must be idle:
Get you a place.
01:32:23.825 --> 01:32:25.484
How fares our cousin Hamlet?
01:32:25.485 --> 01:32:30.984
Excellent, i' faith; of the chameleon's dish:
I eat the air, promise-crammed:
01:32:31.271 --> 01:32:34.796
I have nothing with this answer, Hamlet;
these words are not mine.
01:32:34.797 --> 01:32:37.211
No, nor mine now.
My lord,
01:32:37.212 --> 01:32:39.678
you played once
i' the university, you say?
01:32:39.679 --> 01:32:44.569
That did I, my lord;
and was accounted a good actor.
01:32:44.570 --> 01:32:46.497
What did you enact?
01:32:46.498 --> 01:32:49.749
I did enact Julius Caesar.
01:32:50.068 --> 01:32:52.864
I was killed i' the Capitol;
01:32:52.927 --> 01:32:54.873
Brutus killed me.
01:32:54.874 --> 01:32:59.257
It was a brute part of him to kill
so capital a calf there.
01:32:59.714 --> 01:33:00.539
Be the players ready?
01:33:00.540 --> 01:33:02.089
Ay, my lord; they stay
upon your patience.
01:33:02.090 --> 01:33:04.723
Come hither, my dear Hamlet,
sit by me.
01:33:04.724 --> 01:33:06.513
No, good mother,
01:33:06.987 --> 01:33:08.946
here's metal more attractive.
01:33:09.109 --> 01:33:11.576
O, ho! do you mark that?
01:33:11.577 --> 01:33:13.752
Lady, shall I lie in your lap?
01:33:13.753 --> 01:33:16.319
- No, my lord.
- I mean, my head upon your lap?
01:33:16.320 --> 01:33:19.776
- Ay, my lord.
- Do you think I meant country matters?
01:33:20.538 --> 01:33:21.841
I think nothing, my lord.
01:33:21.842 --> 01:33:24.967
That's a fair thought
to lie between maids' legs.
01:33:24.968 --> 01:33:26.926
- What is, my lord?
- Nothing.
01:33:27.027 --> 01:33:28.327
You are merry, my lord.
01:33:28.362 --> 01:33:30.325
- Who, I?
- Ay, my lord.
01:33:30.326 --> 01:33:34.540
O God, your only jig-maker.
What should a man do but be merry?
01:33:34.541 --> 01:33:37.170
For, look you, how cheerfully my
mother looks,
01:33:37.171 --> 01:33:40.181
and my father died within these two hours.
01:33:40.182 --> 01:33:43.473
Nay, 'tis twice two months, my lord.
01:33:43.474 --> 01:33:45.499
So long? Nay then, let the devil wear black,
01:33:45.500 --> 01:33:47.828
for I'll have a suit of sables.
01:33:48.189 --> 01:33:49.712
O heavens!
01:33:49.713 --> 01:33:52.731
Die two months ago,
and not forgotten yet?
01:35:03.303 --> 01:35:04.444
Dead!
01:35:54.638 --> 01:35:55.987
What means this, my lord?
01:35:55.988 --> 01:35:59.373
Marry, this is miching mallecho;
it means mischief.
01:35:59.374 --> 01:36:02.379
Belike this show imports
the argument of the play.
01:36:02.380 --> 01:36:06.049
We shall know by this fellow: the players cannot
keep counsel; they'll tell all.
01:36:08.456 --> 01:36:11.111
For us, and for our tragedy,
01:36:11.307 --> 01:36:14.528
Here stooping to your clemency,
01:36:14.529 --> 01:36:17.750
We beg your hearing patiently.
01:36:19.204 --> 01:36:21.512
Is this a prologue, or the posy of a ring?
01:36:21.513 --> 01:36:22.933
'Tis brief, my lord.
01:36:22.934 --> 01:36:24.899
As woman's love.
01:36:49.493 --> 01:36:53.597
Full thirty years of past
in sacred bands
01:36:53.654 --> 01:36:57.232
Since love our hearts
01:36:57.233 --> 01:37:00.363
and Hymen joined our hands.
01:37:00.364 --> 01:37:03.461
So many journeys may the sun and moon
01:37:03.794 --> 01:37:05.743
Make us again count o'er
01:37:05.744 --> 01:37:07.692
ere love be done!
01:37:09.505 --> 01:37:15.148
'Faith, I must leave thee,
love, and shortly too;
01:37:15.440 --> 01:37:20.441
My operant powers their functions
leave to do:
01:37:20.865 --> 01:37:25.013
And thou shalt live
in this fair world behind,
01:37:25.227 --> 01:37:31.877
Honour'd, beloved;
and haply one as kind
01:37:31.878 --> 01:37:33.817
For husband shalt thou--
01:37:33.818 --> 01:37:36.008
O, confound the rest!
01:37:36.034 --> 01:37:39.846
Such love must needs
be treason in my breast:
01:37:41.651 --> 01:37:44.668
In second husband let me be accurst!
01:37:44.669 --> 01:37:48.566
None wed the second
but who kill'd the first.
01:37:50.181 --> 01:37:53.696
A second time I kill my husband dead,
01:37:53.697 --> 01:37:56.755
When second husband kisses me in bed.
01:37:56.756 --> 01:38:00.188
I do believe you think
what now you speak;
01:38:00.400 --> 01:38:04.318
But what we do
determine oft we break.
01:38:04.606 --> 01:38:07.962
So think thou wilt
no second husband wed;
01:38:08.201 --> 01:38:16.020
But die thy thoughts when
thy first lord is dead.
01:38:16.165 --> 01:38:20.737
Nor earth to me give food,
nor heaven light!
01:38:21.071 --> 01:38:24.676
Sport and repose lock
from me day and night!
01:38:25.014 --> 01:38:30.368
Both here and hence
pursue me lasting strife,
01:38:30.622 --> 01:38:34.149
If, once a widow, ever I be wife!
01:38:34.150 --> 01:38:36.345
If she should break it now!
01:38:36.424 --> 01:38:39.653
'Tis deeply sworn.
01:38:40.745 --> 01:38:43.992
Sweet, leave me here awhile;
01:38:44.573 --> 01:38:48.616
My spirits grow dull,
and fain I would beguile
01:38:48.617 --> 01:38:52.386
The tedious day with sleep.
01:38:52.387 --> 01:38:54.781
Sleep rock thy brain,
01:38:55.999 --> 01:38:59.432
And never come mischance
between us twain!
01:38:59.433 --> 01:39:02.418
Madam, how like you this play?
01:39:02.419 --> 01:39:06.074
The lady does protest too much, methinks.
01:39:07.391 --> 01:39:10.635
- O, but she'll keep her word.
- Have you heard the argument?
01:39:10.636 --> 01:39:13.933
- Is there no offence in 't?
- No, no, they do but jest,
01:39:13.934 --> 01:39:16.043
poison in jest; no offence
i' the world.
01:39:16.044 --> 01:39:17.537
What do you call the play?
01:39:17.538 --> 01:39:19.079
The Mouse-trap.
01:39:19.080 --> 01:39:21.055
This play is the image of
a murder done in Vienna.
01:39:21.056 --> 01:39:23.057
Gonzago is the duke's name;
his wife, Baptista:
01:39:23.058 --> 01:39:25.765
You shall see anon; 'tis a knavish
piece of work: but what o' that?
01:39:25.766 --> 01:39:29.820
your majesty and we that have free souls,
it touches us not:
01:39:30.296 --> 01:39:33.785
let the galled jade wince,
our withers are unwrung.
01:39:33.786 --> 01:39:37.350
This is one Lucianus, nephew to the king.
01:39:37.351 --> 01:39:39.396
You are as good as a chorus, my lord.
01:39:39.397 --> 01:39:41.118
I could interpret between
you and your love,
01:39:41.119 --> 01:39:42.608
if I could see the puppets dallying.
01:39:42.609 --> 01:39:45.079
You are keen, my lord, you are keen.
01:39:48.047 --> 01:39:50.426
Begin, murderer;
01:39:51.019 --> 01:39:54.070
pox, leave thy damnable faces,
and begin.
01:39:54.360 --> 01:39:57.719
Come: 'the croaking raven
doth bellow for revenge.'
01:39:58.064 --> 01:40:00.037
Thoughts black,
01:40:00.130 --> 01:40:05.253
hands apt, drugs fit,
and time agreeing;
01:40:05.425 --> 01:40:10.414
Confederate season,
else no creature seeing;
01:40:11.168 --> 01:40:15.707
Thou mixture rank,
of midnight weeds collected,
01:40:15.774 --> 01:40:21.686
With Hecate's ban thrice blasted,
thrice infected,
01:40:22.774 --> 01:40:26.773
Thy natural magic and dire property,
01:40:26.784 --> 01:40:31.704
On wholesome life usurp immediately.
01:40:31.705 --> 01:40:34.127
He poisons him i' the garden for's estate.
01:40:34.737 --> 01:40:37.390
His name's Gonzago: the story is extant,
and writ in choice Italian:
01:40:37.391 --> 01:40:41.174
you shall see anon how the murderer
gets the love of Gonzago's wife.
01:40:42.371 --> 01:40:45.107
- The king rises.
- What, frighted with false fire!
01:40:45.108 --> 01:40:47.626
- How fares my lord?
- Give o'er the play.
01:40:50.021 --> 01:40:51.583
Give me some light.
01:41:01.988 --> 01:41:05.680
- Away!
- Lights, lights, lights!
01:41:14.347 --> 01:41:19.040
O good Horatio, I'll take the ghost's
word for a thousand pound.
01:41:19.041 --> 01:41:20.654
- Didst perceive?
- Very well, my lord.
01:41:20.655 --> 01:41:22.462
Upon the talk of the poisoning?
01:41:22.463 --> 01:41:24.792
- I did very well note him.
- Come, some music!
01:41:24.793 --> 01:41:27.086
Come, the recorders!
01:41:27.087 --> 01:41:29.030
For if the king like not the comedy,
01:41:29.327 --> 01:41:31.885
Why then, belike, he likes it not, perdy.
01:41:31.886 --> 01:41:33.297
Good my lord, vouchsafe
me a word with you.
01:41:33.298 --> 01:41:35.298
Sir, a whole history.
01:41:35.598 --> 01:41:37.217
- The king, sir,--
- Ay, sir, what of him?
01:41:37.218 --> 01:41:39.686
Is in his retirement marvellous distempered.
01:41:39.687 --> 01:41:41.222
With drink, sir?
01:41:41.223 --> 01:41:43.240
No, my lord, rather with choler.
01:41:43.656 --> 01:41:46.759
Good my lord, put your discourse
into some frame
01:41:46.760 --> 01:41:49.477
and start not so
wildly from my affair.
01:41:49.478 --> 01:41:52.334
I am tame, sir: pronounce.
01:41:52.335 --> 01:41:55.925
The queen, your mother, in most great
affliction of spirit, hath sent me to you.
01:41:55.926 --> 01:41:57.326
- You are welcome.
- Nay, good my lord,
01:41:57.327 --> 01:41:58.702
If it shall please you to make me
a wholesome answer,
01:41:58.703 --> 01:42:00.138
I will do your mother's
commands.
01:42:00.139 --> 01:42:02.004
- Oh, oh, oh, sir...
sir... I cannot.
01:42:02.005 --> 01:42:02.838
What, my lord?
01:42:02.939 --> 01:42:06.439
Make you a wholesome answer;
my wit's diseased.
01:42:06.474 --> 01:42:08.358
- My mother, you say?
- Then thus she says,
01:42:08.550 --> 01:42:12.313
your behavior hath struck her
into wonder and astonishment.
01:42:12.314 --> 01:42:15.756
O wonderful son,
01:42:16.233 --> 01:42:18.074
that can so astonish a mother!
01:42:19.275 --> 01:42:20.525
Impart.
01:42:20.993 --> 01:42:22.343
She desires to speak with you
in her closet,
01:42:22.344 --> 01:42:24.561
ere you go to bed.
01:42:24.562 --> 01:42:28.629
We shall obey, were she
ten times our mother.
01:42:32.310 --> 01:42:35.194
Have you any further trade with us?
01:42:35.506 --> 01:42:36.981
My lord,
01:42:37.179 --> 01:42:39.019
you once did love me.
01:42:40.813 --> 01:42:42.714
So I do still,
01:42:43.467 --> 01:42:45.934
by these pickers and stealers.
01:42:45.935 --> 01:42:48.315
Good my lord, what is your
cause of distemper?
01:42:48.316 --> 01:42:51.091
You do, surely, bar the door
upon your own liberty,
01:42:51.092 --> 01:42:53.160
if you deny your griefs to your friend.
01:42:53.161 --> 01:42:56.781
Sir, I lack advancement.
01:42:56.961 --> 01:43:00.768
How can that be, when you have the voice of the king
himself for your succession in Denmark?
01:43:00.769 --> 01:43:02.419
Ay, but sir,
01:43:02.420 --> 01:43:04.934
'While the grass grows,'
01:43:08.233 --> 01:43:09.868
the proverb is something musty.
01:43:09.869 --> 01:43:12.789
O, the recorders! let me see one.
01:43:14.514 --> 01:43:16.239
To withdraw with you:
01:43:18.409 --> 01:43:20.320
why do you go about
to recover the wind of me,
01:43:20.321 --> 01:43:22.189
as if you would drive me into a toil?
01:43:22.190 --> 01:43:25.004
O, my lord, if my duty be too bold,
01:43:25.005 --> 01:43:27.186
my love is too unmannerly.
01:43:29.784 --> 01:43:33.006
I do not well understand that.
Will you play upon this pipe?
01:43:33.212 --> 01:43:34.840
- My lord, I cannot.
- I pray you.
01:43:35.041 --> 01:43:36.141
Believe me, I cannot.
01:43:36.241 --> 01:43:38.870
- I do beseech you.
- I know no touch of it, my lord.
01:43:38.871 --> 01:43:40.534
'Tis as easy as lying.
01:43:40.535 --> 01:43:41.806
govern these ventages with
your lingers and thumb,
01:43:41.807 --> 01:43:43.377
give it breath with your mouth,
01:43:43.378 --> 01:43:45.870
and it will discourse most eloquent music.
01:43:47.830 --> 01:43:48.895
Look you, these are the stops.
01:43:48.896 --> 01:43:52.929
But these cannot I command to any utterance of
harmony; I have not the skill.
01:43:55.566 --> 01:43:57.452
Why, look you now,
01:43:57.612 --> 01:44:00.364
how unworthy a thing you make of me!
01:44:02.552 --> 01:44:04.478
You would play upon me;
01:44:05.221 --> 01:44:07.531
you would seem to know my stops;
01:44:08.123 --> 01:44:10.614
you would pluck out the heart of my mystery;
01:44:10.615 --> 01:44:12.620
you would sound me from my lowest note
01:44:12.621 --> 01:44:14.058
to the top of my compass:
01:44:14.059 --> 01:44:18.154
and there is much music,
excellent voice, in this little organ;
01:44:18.589 --> 01:44:21.017
yet cannot you make it speak?
01:44:21.782 --> 01:44:26.392
'Sblood, do you think I am
easier to be played on than a pipe?
01:44:27.432 --> 01:44:31.044
Call me what instrument you will,
though you can fret me,
01:44:31.045 --> 01:44:35.444
you cannot play upon me.
01:44:37.199 --> 01:44:39.501
God bless you, sir!
01:44:40.943 --> 01:44:44.896
My lord, the queen would speak with you...
01:44:49.783 --> 01:44:52.303
and presently.
01:44:56.238 --> 01:45:00.014
Do you see yonder cloud that's
almost in shape of a camel?
01:45:00.693 --> 01:45:05.133
By the mass, and 'tis
like a camel, indeed.
01:45:05.987 --> 01:45:08.352
Methinks it is like a weasel.
01:45:08.947 --> 01:45:12.495
It is backed like a weasel.
01:45:13.102 --> 01:45:17.000
- Or like a whale?
- Very like a whale.
01:45:19.784 --> 01:45:22.171
Then I will come to my mother by and by.
01:45:22.172 --> 01:45:25.188
They fool me to the top of my bent.
01:45:26.486 --> 01:45:28.202
I will come by and by.
01:45:28.203 --> 01:45:31.839
- I will say so.
- By and by is easily said.
01:45:32.701 --> 01:45:34.589
Leave me, friends.
01:45:44.637 --> 01:45:47.375
Tis now the very witching time of night,
01:45:47.801 --> 01:45:51.844
When churchyards yawn and hell
itself breathes out
01:45:51.845 --> 01:45:57.287
Contagion to this world:
now could I drink hot blood,
01:45:58.250 --> 01:46:01.770
And do such bitter business as the day
01:46:01.771 --> 01:46:04.134
Would quake to look on.
01:46:05.068 --> 01:46:09.484
Soft! now to my mother.
01:46:10.437 --> 01:46:15.880
I will speak daggers to her,
but use none.
01:46:16.189 --> 01:46:20.630
I like him not,
nor stands it safe with us
01:46:20.631 --> 01:46:25.939
To let his madness range.
Therefore prepare you;
01:46:25.940 --> 01:46:27.855
I your commission
will forthwith dispatch,
01:46:27.856 --> 01:46:30.711
And he to England shall along with you:
01:46:31.052 --> 01:46:32.879
The terms of our estate may not endure
01:46:32.880 --> 01:46:36.334
Hazard so dangerous as doth hourly grow
01:46:36.335 --> 01:46:37.574
Out of his lunacy.
01:46:37.575 --> 01:46:39.302
We will ourselves provide:
01:46:39.355 --> 01:46:41.463
Most holy and religious fear it is
01:46:41.464 --> 01:46:43.775
To keep those many many bodies safe
01:46:43.776 --> 01:46:46.218
That live and feed upon your majesty.
01:46:47.295 --> 01:46:51.057
Never alone did the king sigh,
but with a general groan.
01:46:51.278 --> 01:46:53.790
The majesty is a massy wheel,
01:46:53.791 --> 01:46:55.861
Fix'd on the summit of the highest mount,
01:46:55.862 --> 01:46:59.035
To whose huge spokes
ten thousand lesser things
01:46:59.036 --> 01:47:02.952
Are mortised and adjoin'd.
01:47:03.192 --> 01:47:06.518
Arm you, I pray you,
to this speedy voyage;
01:47:07.064 --> 01:47:09.513
For we will fetters put upon this fear,
01:47:09.514 --> 01:47:12.378
ich now goes too free-footed.
01:47:12.403 --> 01:47:13.909
We will haste us.
01:47:15.531 --> 01:47:18.703
My lord, he's going
to his mother's closet:
01:47:18.704 --> 01:47:21.107
Behind the arras I'll convey myself,
01:47:21.108 --> 01:47:22.421
To hear the process.
01:47:22.422 --> 01:47:25.105
and warrant she'll tax him home:
01:47:25.106 --> 01:47:27.467
Fare you well, my liege:
01:47:27.503 --> 01:47:31.067
I'll call upon you ere you go to bed,
And tell you what I know.
01:47:31.562 --> 01:47:33.531
Thanks, dear my lord.
01:47:47.400 --> 01:47:50.346
O, my offence is rank
01:47:51.696 --> 01:47:54.475
it smells to heaven;
01:47:56.451 --> 01:47:59.651
It hath the primal eldest curse upon't,
01:48:01.363 --> 01:48:03.573
A brother's murder.
01:48:09.009 --> 01:48:11.075
Pray can I not,
01:48:12.515 --> 01:48:15.859
Though inclination be
as sharp as will:
01:48:16.745 --> 01:48:20.706
My stronger guilt
defeats my strong intent;
01:48:21.053 --> 01:48:24.463
And, like a man
to double business bound,
01:48:24.464 --> 01:48:26.960
I stand in pause where
I shall first begin,
01:48:26.961 --> 01:48:29.034
And both neglect.
01:48:31.751 --> 01:48:34.080
What if this cursed hand
01:48:34.122 --> 01:48:37.808
Were thicker than itself
with brother's blood,
01:48:38.398 --> 01:48:40.790
Is there not rain enough
in the sweet heavens
01:48:40.791 --> 01:48:43.880
To wash it white as snow?
01:48:44.765 --> 01:48:47.143
Whereto serves mercy
01:48:47.479 --> 01:48:50.616
But to confront the visage
of offence?
01:48:51.234 --> 01:48:54.670
And what's in prayer
but this two-fold force,
01:48:54.671 --> 01:48:57.482
To be forestalled ere we come to fall,
01:48:57.483 --> 01:49:02.806
Or pardon'd being down?
01:49:04.323 --> 01:49:06.211
Then I'll look up;
01:49:07.006 --> 01:49:09.152
My fault is past.
01:49:09.565 --> 01:49:14.142
But, O, what form of prayer
01:49:14.143 --> 01:49:18.883
Can serve my turn?
'Forgive me my foul murder'?
01:49:18.884 --> 01:49:23.754
That cannot be; since
I am still possess'd
01:49:23.755 --> 01:49:30.602
Of those effects for which
I did the murder,
01:49:30.603 --> 01:49:37.936
My crown, mine own ambition
and my queen.
01:49:39.624 --> 01:49:44.351
May one be pardon'd
and retain the offence?
01:49:45.080 --> 01:49:48.452
In the corrupted currents of this world
01:49:48.453 --> 01:49:52.378
Offence's gilded hand
may shove by justice,
01:49:52.379 --> 01:49:55.054
And oft 'tis seen
the wicked prize itself
01:49:55.055 --> 01:50:00.989
Buys out the law:
but 'tis not so above;
01:50:02.548 --> 01:50:05.792
There is no shuffling,
01:50:06.185 --> 01:50:07.698
there the action lies
01:50:07.699 --> 01:50:11.881
In his true nature;
and we ourselves compell'd,
01:50:11.882 --> 01:50:14.507
Even to the teeth
and forehead of our faults,
01:50:14.508 --> 01:50:16.927
To give in evidence.
01:50:17.361 --> 01:50:19.267
What then?
01:50:19.890 --> 01:50:21.621
what rests?
01:50:23.199 --> 01:50:25.312
Try what repentance can.
01:50:27.745 --> 01:50:29.432
what can it not?
01:50:31.148 --> 01:50:35.775
Yet what can it
when one can not repent?
01:50:37.507 --> 01:50:41.288
O wretched state!
01:50:42.143 --> 01:50:45.360
O bosom black as death!
01:50:46.018 --> 01:50:51.165
O limed soul, that,
struggling to be free,
01:50:51.653 --> 01:50:53.898
Art more engaged!
01:50:55.814 --> 01:50:59.665
Help, angels!
01:51:00.581 --> 01:51:02.707
Make assay!
01:51:03.918 --> 01:51:06.357
Bow, stubborn knees;
01:51:07.039 --> 01:51:12.557
and, heart with strings of steel,
01:51:13.284 --> 01:51:16.956
Be soft as sinews of the newborn babe!
01:51:22.393 --> 01:51:24.415
All may be well.
01:51:31.071 --> 01:51:33.018
Now might I do it pat,
01:51:36.476 --> 01:51:38.180
now he is praying;
01:51:41.071 --> 01:51:42.342
And now I'll do't.
01:51:45.575 --> 01:51:47.383
And so he goes to heaven;
01:51:47.708 --> 01:51:50.415
And so am I revenged.
That would be scann'd:
01:51:50.576 --> 01:51:52.783
A villain kills my father;
and for that,
01:51:52.784 --> 01:51:56.115
I, his sole son, do this same
villain send to heaven?
01:51:57.322 --> 01:51:59.851
O, this is hire and salary,
not revenge.
01:52:04.921 --> 01:52:08.222
He took my father grossly,
full of bread;
01:52:08.316 --> 01:52:11.767
With all his crimes broad blown,
as flush as May;
01:52:13.577 --> 01:52:16.722
And how his audit stands
who knows save heaven?
01:52:18.314 --> 01:52:19.429
and am I then revenged,
01:52:19.430 --> 01:52:22.400
To take him in the purging of his soul,
01:52:22.401 --> 01:52:24.916
When he is fit and season'd for his passage?
01:52:26.244 --> 01:52:27.418
No!
01:52:29.536 --> 01:52:31.013
Up, blade,
01:52:32.390 --> 01:52:34.679
and know thou a more horrid hent:
01:52:37.541 --> 01:52:42.027
When he is drunk asleep,
or in his rage,
01:52:43.134 --> 01:52:45.863
Or in the incestuous
pleasure of his bed;
01:52:47.960 --> 01:52:51.123
At gaming, swearing,
or about some act
01:52:51.124 --> 01:52:53.926
That has no relish of salvation in't;
01:52:55.505 --> 01:53:00.103
Then trip him, that his heels
may kick at heaven,
01:53:01.120 --> 01:53:05.199
And that his soul may be
as damn'd and black
01:53:05.200 --> 01:53:07.873
As hell, whereto it goes.
01:53:12.585 --> 01:53:14.411
My mother stays:
01:53:18.057 --> 01:53:21.818
This physic but prolongs
thy sickly days.
01:53:29.571 --> 01:53:32.382
My words fly up,
01:53:34.505 --> 01:53:36.985
my thoughts remain below:
01:53:43.190 --> 01:53:47.683
Words without thoughts
never to heaven go.
01:53:55.608 --> 01:53:58.780
He will come straight.
Look you lay home to him:
01:53:58.781 --> 01:54:01.357
Tell him his pranks have been
too broad to bear with,
01:54:01.358 --> 01:54:04.129
And that your grace hath screen'd
and stood between much heat and him.
01:54:04.130 --> 01:54:07.591
I'll sconce me even here.
01:54:07.592 --> 01:54:09.671
Pray you, be round with him.
01:54:09.672 --> 01:54:13.255
I'll warrant you, fear me not:
withdraw, I hear him coming.
01:54:13.271 --> 01:54:15.371
Mother, mother!
01:54:21.928 --> 01:54:23.288
Mother!
01:54:23.289 --> 01:54:24.490
Now, mother, what's the matter?
01:54:24.491 --> 01:54:28.159
Hamlet, thou hast thy father
much offended.
01:54:28.160 --> 01:54:30.230
Mother, you have my father
much offended.
01:54:30.231 --> 01:54:32.402
Come, come, you answer with
an idle tongue.
01:54:32.403 --> 01:54:35.658
- Go, go, you question with a wicked tongue.
- Why, how now, Hamlet!
01:54:35.659 --> 01:54:37.375
What's the matter now?
01:54:40.810 --> 01:54:42.333
Have you forgot me?
01:54:42.334 --> 01:54:45.380
No, by the rood, not so:
01:54:45.381 --> 01:54:49.740
You are the queen, your husband's
brother's wife;
01:54:49.741 --> 01:54:51.591
And--would it were not so!--
01:54:52.392 --> 01:54:54.001
you are my mother.
01:54:54.954 --> 01:54:57.663
Nay, then, I'll set those
to you that can speak.
01:54:57.774 --> 01:55:00.618
Come, come, and sit you down;
01:55:00.619 --> 01:55:03.239
you shall not budge;
You go not till I set you up a glass
01:55:03.240 --> 01:55:05.837
Where you may see
the inmost part of you.
01:55:05.838 --> 01:55:07.791
What wilt thou do?
thou wilt not murder me?
01:55:09.557 --> 01:55:12.245
Help, help, ho!
01:55:12.246 --> 01:55:15.735
What, ho! help, help, help!
01:55:15.904 --> 01:55:19.227
How now! a rat?
Dead, for a ducat, dead!
01:55:28.951 --> 01:55:30.345
What hast thou done?
01:55:30.417 --> 01:55:34.798
Nay, I know not: Is it the king?
01:55:37.417 --> 01:55:40.230
O, what a rash and bloody deed is this!
01:55:40.319 --> 01:55:44.177
A bloody deed! almost as bad,
good mother,
01:55:44.178 --> 01:55:46.885
As kill a king, and marry
with his brother.
01:55:47.073 --> 01:55:48.836
As kill a king!
01:55:48.952 --> 01:55:50.937
Ay, lady, 'twas my word.
01:55:52.997 --> 01:55:56.847
Thou wretched, rash,
intruding fool, farewell!
01:55:59.210 --> 01:56:03.659
I took thee for thy better:
take thy fortune;
01:56:04.378 --> 01:56:07.414
Leave wringing of your hands:
peace! sit you down,
01:56:07.482 --> 01:56:11.082
And let me wring your heart;
for so I shall,
01:56:11.083 --> 01:56:12.960
If it be made of penetrable stuff,
01:56:12.961 --> 01:56:16.876
What have I done, that thou darest wag thy tongue
In noise so rude against me?
01:56:16.911 --> 01:56:18.684
Such an act
01:56:18.895 --> 01:56:22.069
That blurs the grace
and blush of modesty,
01:56:22.070 --> 01:56:25.721
Calls virtue hypocrite,
makes marriage-vows
01:56:25.722 --> 01:56:29.443
- As false as dicers' oaths!
- Ay me, what act,
01:56:29.444 --> 01:56:32.741
That roars so loud,
and thunders in the index?
01:56:33.108 --> 01:56:36.252
Look here, upon this picture,
01:56:36.313 --> 01:56:40.096
and... on this,
01:56:41.452 --> 01:56:44.031
The counterfeit presentment
of two brothers.
01:56:44.032 --> 01:56:47.610
See, what a grace
was seated on this brow;
01:56:49.248 --> 01:56:51.308
Hyperion's curls
01:56:52.348 --> 01:56:54.692
the front of Jove himself;
01:56:55.536 --> 01:56:59.497
An eye like Mars,
to threaten and command;
01:57:00.077 --> 01:57:02.874
A station like the herald Mercury
01:57:02.918 --> 01:57:05.611
New-lighted on a heaven-kissing hill;
01:57:05.612 --> 01:57:07.467
A combination and a form indeed,
01:57:07.468 --> 01:57:09.816
Where every god did seem
to set his seal,
01:57:09.817 --> 01:57:12.821
To give the world assurance of a man:
01:57:13.626 --> 01:57:15.542
This was your husband.
01:57:17.950 --> 01:57:20.566
Look you now, what follows:
01:57:20.955 --> 01:57:25.043
Here is your husband;
like a mildew'd ear,
01:57:25.044 --> 01:57:27.618
Blasting his wholesome brother.
01:57:27.619 --> 01:57:28.549
Have you eyes?
01:57:28.926 --> 01:57:31.618
Could you on this fair
mountain leave to feed,
01:57:31.619 --> 01:57:36.156
And batten on this moor?
Ha! have you eyes?
01:57:36.225 --> 01:57:38.473
You cannot call it love;
for at your age
01:57:38.474 --> 01:57:42.210
The hey-day in the blood
is tame, it's humble,
01:57:42.211 --> 01:57:44.359
And waits upon the judgment:
and what judgment
01:57:44.360 --> 01:57:48.051
Would step from this to this?
What devil was't
01:57:48.052 --> 01:57:51.101
That thus hath cozen'd you
at hoodman-blind?
01:57:52.241 --> 01:57:55.841
Eyes without feeling,
feeling without sight,
01:57:55.842 --> 01:57:59.757
Ears without hands or eyes,
smelling sans all,
01:57:59.758 --> 01:58:02.416
Or but a sickly part
of one true sense
01:58:02.417 --> 01:58:04.921
Could not so mope.
01:58:05.496 --> 01:58:08.088
O shame! where is thy blush?
01:58:08.089 --> 01:58:09.755
O Hamlet, speak no more:
01:58:10.112 --> 01:58:12.922
Thou turn'st mine eyes
into my very soul;
01:58:13.276 --> 01:58:15.933
And there I see such black
and grained spots
01:58:15.934 --> 01:58:18.078
As will not leave their tinct.
01:58:18.153 --> 01:58:19.883
Nay, but to live
01:58:19.884 --> 01:58:23.645
In the rank sweat of an enseamed bed,
01:58:24.503 --> 01:58:28.517
Stew'd in corruption,
honeying and making love
01:58:28.518 --> 01:58:31.201
- Over the nasty sty,--
- O, speak to me no more;
01:58:31.202 --> 01:58:33.433
These words, like daggers,
enter in mine ears;
01:58:33.434 --> 01:58:35.266
No more, sweet Hamlet!
01:58:35.267 --> 01:58:38.272
A murderer and a villain;
01:58:38.273 --> 01:58:42.301
A slave that is not
twentieth part the tithe
01:58:42.302 --> 01:58:45.081
Of your precedent lord;
a vice of kings;
01:58:45.698 --> 01:58:48.390
A cutpurse of the empire and the rule,
01:58:48.391 --> 01:58:51.605
That from a shelf
the precious diadem stole,
01:58:51.606 --> 01:58:53.681
- And put it in his pocket!
- No more!
01:58:53.682 --> 01:58:56.231
A king of shreds and patches,--
01:58:59.798 --> 01:59:03.034
Save me, and hover o'er me
with your wings,
01:59:03.035 --> 01:59:04.866
You heavenly guards!
01:59:05.290 --> 01:59:09.879
- What would your gracious figure?
- Alas, he's mad!
01:59:09.880 --> 01:59:12.486
Do you not come your
tardy son to chide,
01:59:12.504 --> 01:59:15.481
That, lapsed in time
and passion, lets go by
01:59:15.482 --> 01:59:18.458
The important acting
of your dread command?
01:59:18.878 --> 01:59:20.197
O, say!
01:59:20.198 --> 01:59:23.341
Do not forget: this visitation
01:59:23.342 --> 01:59:27.494
Is but to whet thy
almost blunted purpose.
01:59:30.197 --> 01:59:35.091
But, look, amazement
on thy mother sits:
01:59:35.536 --> 01:59:40.797
O, step between her
and her fighting soul:
01:59:40.963 --> 01:59:44.828
Conceit in weakest
bodies strongest works:
01:59:45.360 --> 01:59:47.791
Speak to her, Hamlet.
01:59:48.861 --> 01:59:51.213
How is it with you, lady?
01:59:51.340 --> 01:59:53.871
Alas, how is't with you,
01:59:54.122 --> 01:59:56.403
That you do bend your
eye on vacancy
01:59:56.404 --> 01:59:59.664
And with the incorporal
air do hold discourse?
02:00:00.677 --> 02:00:03.169
Forth at your eyes your
spirits wildly peep;
02:00:03.170 --> 02:00:06.696
O gentle son, upon the heat
and flame of thy distemper
02:00:06.697 --> 02:00:10.391
Sprinkle cool patience.
Whereon do you look?
02:00:10.392 --> 02:00:15.776
On him, on him! Look you,
how pale he glares!
02:00:18.099 --> 02:00:19.956
Do not look upon me,
02:00:20.181 --> 02:00:23.663
Lest with this piteous action
you convert my stern effects:
02:00:23.698 --> 02:00:24.977
then what I have to do
02:00:24.978 --> 02:00:28.558
Will want true colour;
tears perchance for blood.
02:00:28.559 --> 02:00:30.952
To whom do you speak this?
02:00:33.225 --> 02:00:34.149
Do you see nothing there?
02:00:34.150 --> 02:00:38.255
- Nothing at all; yet all that is I see.
- Nor did you nothing hear?
02:00:38.256 --> 02:00:40.940
No, nothing but ourselves.
02:00:41.103 --> 02:00:43.008
Why, look you there!
look, how it steals away!
02:00:43.009 --> 02:00:46.002
My father, in his habit as he lived!
02:00:46.038 --> 02:00:50.585
Look, where he goes, even now,
out at the portal!
02:00:51.342 --> 02:00:53.347
This the very coinage of your brain:
02:00:53.348 --> 02:00:56.137
This bodiless creation ecstasy
02:00:56.138 --> 02:00:57.956
Is very cunning in.
02:00:58.100 --> 02:01:03.204
Ecstasy! My pulse, as yours,
doth temperately keep time,
02:01:03.205 --> 02:01:05.948
And makes as healthful music:
it is not madness
02:01:05.949 --> 02:01:07.614
That I have utter'd:
bring me to the test,
02:01:07.615 --> 02:01:11.038
And I the matter will re-word;
which madness Would gambol from.
02:01:11.039 --> 02:01:13.036
Mother, for love of grace,
02:01:13.037 --> 02:01:15.923
Lay not that mattering
unction to your soul,
02:01:15.924 --> 02:01:18.060
That not your trespass,
but my madness speaks:
02:01:18.061 --> 02:01:20.435
It will but skin and film
the ulcerous place,
02:01:20.452 --> 02:01:23.199
Whilst rank corruption,
mining all within,
02:01:23.200 --> 02:01:26.255
Infects unseen.
Confess yourself to heaven;
02:01:26.256 --> 02:01:28.619
Repent what's past;
avoid what is to come;
02:01:28.620 --> 02:01:31.054
And do not spread the compost
on the weeds,
02:01:31.055 --> 02:01:32.498
To make them ranker.
02:01:32.499 --> 02:01:35.455
O Hamlet, thou hast cleft
my heart in twain.
02:01:35.456 --> 02:01:37.333
O, throw away the worser part of it,
02:01:37.334 --> 02:01:39.171
And live the purer with the other half.
02:01:46.354 --> 02:01:47.751
Good night,
02:01:50.435 --> 02:01:52.878
but go not to mine uncle's bed;
02:01:52.901 --> 02:01:55.996
Assume a virtue, if you have it not.
02:01:55.997 --> 02:01:58.424
Refrain to-night, and that shall lend
a kind of easiness
02:01:58.425 --> 02:02:00.450
To the next abstinence.
02:02:04.234 --> 02:02:06.133
Once more, good night.
02:02:08.796 --> 02:02:11.550
When you are desirous to be bless'd,
02:02:12.005 --> 02:02:13.988
I'll blessing beg of you.
02:02:16.111 --> 02:02:17.831
For this same lord,
02:02:21.100 --> 02:02:22.431
I do repent
02:02:25.242 --> 02:02:27.188
but heaven hath pleased it so,
02:02:27.189 --> 02:02:30.321
To punish me with this
and this with me,
02:02:31.715 --> 02:02:34.376
That I must be their
scourge and minister.
02:02:36.609 --> 02:02:38.009
I will bestow him,
02:02:38.664 --> 02:02:41.189
and will answer well
the death I gave him.
02:02:41.501 --> 02:02:43.339
So, again, good night.
02:02:45.016 --> 02:02:47.610
I must be cruel,
only to be kind:
02:02:50.667 --> 02:02:52.335
Thus bad begins
02:02:53.757 --> 02:02:55.882
and worse remains behind.
02:02:57.159 --> 02:02:59.321
- One word more, good lady.
- What shall I do?
02:02:59.322 --> 02:03:02.221
Not this, by no means,
that I bid you do:
02:03:02.898 --> 02:03:05.047
Let the bloat king tempt
you again to bed;
02:03:05.048 --> 02:03:08.351
Pinch wanton on your cheek;
call you his mouse;
02:03:09.238 --> 02:03:11.061
And let him, for a pair of reechy kisses,
02:03:11.062 --> 02:03:13.610
Or paddling in your neck
with his damn'd fingers,
02:03:13.611 --> 02:03:15.106
Make you to ravel all this matter out,
02:03:15.107 --> 02:03:17.643
That I essentially am not in madness,
But mad in craft.
02:03:17.644 --> 02:03:20.353
Be thou assured,
if words be made of breath,
02:03:20.354 --> 02:03:24.189
And breath of life,
I have no life to breathe
02:03:24.295 --> 02:03:26.284
What thou hast said to me.
02:03:53.446 --> 02:03:56.335
I must to England; you know that?
02:03:57.821 --> 02:04:01.486
Alack, I had forgot.
02:04:04.228 --> 02:04:06.499
'Tis so concluded on.
02:04:06.641 --> 02:04:08.881
There's letters seal'd
02:04:10.680 --> 02:04:12.472
and my two schoolfellows,
02:04:12.473 --> 02:04:16.847
Whom I will trust as
I will adders fang'd,
02:04:17.734 --> 02:04:19.698
They bear the mandate
02:04:20.890 --> 02:04:25.515
they must sweep my way,
And marshal me to knavery. Let it work;
02:04:26.266 --> 02:04:28.631
For 'tis the sport
to have the engineer
02:04:28.632 --> 02:04:32.774
Hoist with his own petard:
't shall go hard
02:04:33.109 --> 02:04:36.106
But I will delve
one yard below their mines,
02:04:36.107 --> 02:04:38.121
And blow them at the moon:
02:04:38.122 --> 02:04:41.115
O, 'tis most sweet,
02:04:41.953 --> 02:04:45.661
When in one line two
crafts directly meet.
02:05:02.479 --> 02:05:04.784
This man shall set me packing:
02:05:10.265 --> 02:05:12.802
I'll lug the guts into
the neighbour room.
02:05:12.827 --> 02:05:14.505
Mother, good night.
02:05:19.108 --> 02:05:22.412
Indeed this counsellor
Is now most still,
02:05:23.116 --> 02:05:24.933
most secret
02:05:25.412 --> 02:05:27.576
and most grave,
02:05:28.402 --> 02:05:32.027
Who was in life a foolish
prating knave.
02:05:33.880 --> 02:05:35.551
Come, sir,
02:05:36.421 --> 02:05:39.188
to draw toward an end with you.
02:06:04.254 --> 02:06:05.850
Good night, mother.
02:06:24.953 --> 02:06:30.043
There's matter in these sighs,
these profound heaves:
02:06:30.044 --> 02:06:32.248
You must translate.
02:06:32.812 --> 02:06:35.181
'tis fit we understand them.
02:06:36.703 --> 02:06:38.197
Where is your son?
02:06:38.345 --> 02:06:43.661
- Ah, my good lord, what have I seen to-night!
- What, Gertrude?
02:06:43.964 --> 02:06:45.686
How does Hamlet?
02:06:45.687 --> 02:06:47.086
Mad
02:06:48.176 --> 02:06:52.342
as the sea and wind, when both contend
Which is the mightier:
02:06:53.396 --> 02:06:55.625
in his lawless fit,
02:06:55.823 --> 02:06:58.325
Behind the arras
hearing something stir,
02:06:58.326 --> 02:07:00.884
Whips out his weapon,
cries, 'A rat, a rat!'
02:07:00.885 --> 02:07:03.915
And, in this brainish
apprehension, kills
02:07:03.916 --> 02:07:08.007
The unseen good old man.
02:07:11.856 --> 02:07:13.868
O heavy deed!
02:07:16.075 --> 02:07:18.832
It had been so with us,
had we been there:
02:07:20.098 --> 02:07:23.509
His liberty is full of threats to all;
02:07:23.638 --> 02:07:25.941
To you yourself, to us,
02:07:26.519 --> 02:07:28.116
to every one.
02:07:29.637 --> 02:07:32.751
Alas, how shall this
bloody deed be answer'd?
02:07:32.815 --> 02:07:34.208
It will be laid to us,
02:07:34.209 --> 02:07:36.170
whose providence
Should have kept short,
02:07:36.171 --> 02:07:40.941
restrain'd and out of haunt,
This mad young man:
02:07:41.193 --> 02:07:44.433
but so much was our love,
02:07:44.434 --> 02:07:48.393
We would not understand
what was most fit;
02:07:48.635 --> 02:07:52.277
But, like the owner
of a foul disease,
02:07:52.278 --> 02:07:55.443
To keep it from divulging, let it feed
02:07:55.692 --> 02:07:57.551
Even on the pith of Life.
02:07:57.552 --> 02:08:00.182
- Where is he gone?
- To draw apart the body he hath kill'd:
02:08:00.183 --> 02:08:04.575
O'er his madness
weeps for what is done.
02:08:04.576 --> 02:08:08.840
O Gertrude, come!
The sun no sooner shall the mountains touch,
02:08:08.841 --> 02:08:12.636
But we will ship him hence:
02:08:12.637 --> 02:08:16.606
and this vile deed We must,
with all our majesty and skill,
02:08:16.607 --> 02:08:22.061
Both countenance and excuse.
02:08:23.583 --> 02:08:24.887
Guildenstern!
02:08:27.254 --> 02:08:31.696
Friends both, go join you
with some further aid:
02:08:34.249 --> 02:08:37.544
Hamlet in madness hath Polonius slain,
02:08:37.656 --> 02:08:40.709
And from his mother's closet
hath he dragg'd him:
02:08:40.710 --> 02:08:42.036
Go seek him out;
02:08:42.037 --> 02:08:48.057
speak fair, and bring the body
Into the chapel.
02:08:48.058 --> 02:08:49.707
I pray you, haste in this.
02:08:52.526 --> 02:08:54.226
O, Gertrude, come
02:08:54.772 --> 02:08:56.870
it's call up our wisest friends;
02:08:56.871 --> 02:08:59.046
And let them know,
both what we mean to do,
02:08:59.047 --> 02:09:03.711
And what's untimely done...
02:09:05.800 --> 02:09:07.415
Come away!
02:09:08.847 --> 02:09:12.366
My soul is full
of discord and dismay.
02:09:30.584 --> 02:09:32.197
Safely stowed.
02:09:32.269 --> 02:09:34.235
Hamlet! Lord Hamlet!
02:09:34.236 --> 02:09:36.628
What noise?
02:09:37.513 --> 02:09:38.981
Here they come.
02:09:43.763 --> 02:09:45.958
What have you done, my lord,
with the dead body?
02:09:47.665 --> 02:09:50.423
Compounded it with dust,
whereto 'tis kin.
02:09:51.203 --> 02:09:55.411
Tell us where 'tis, that we may take it thence
And bear it to the chapel.
02:09:55.412 --> 02:09:58.258
- Do not believe it.
- Believe what?
02:09:58.259 --> 02:10:00.992
That I can keep your
counsel and not mine own.
02:10:01.022 --> 02:10:04.436
Besides, to be demanded of a sponge!
02:10:04.644 --> 02:10:07.807
What replication should be made
by the son of a king?
02:10:08.847 --> 02:10:11.679
Take you me for a sponge, my lord?
02:10:12.806 --> 02:10:14.366
Ay, sir,
02:10:14.865 --> 02:10:17.378
that soaks up the king's countenance,
02:10:17.516 --> 02:10:20.487
his rewards, his authorities.
02:10:20.488 --> 02:10:25.514
But such officers do the
king best service in the end.
02:10:26.026 --> 02:10:27.967
He keeps them,
02:10:28.244 --> 02:10:32.135
like an ape,
in the corner of his jaw;
02:10:32.582 --> 02:10:34.661
first mouthed,
02:10:34.662 --> 02:10:36.613
to be last swallowed:
02:10:36.614 --> 02:10:41.172
when he needs what you have
gleaned, it is but squeezing you,
02:10:42.008 --> 02:10:45.005
and, sponge, you
shall be dry again.
02:10:45.305 --> 02:10:47.171
I understand you not, my lord.
02:10:47.172 --> 02:10:48.858
I am glad of it:
02:10:49.219 --> 02:10:52.320
a knavish speech sleeps in a
foolish ear.
02:10:52.803 --> 02:10:56.057
My lord, you must tell us where the body is,
and go with us to the king.
02:10:56.058 --> 02:11:01.758
The body is with the king,
but the king is not with the body.
02:11:02.157 --> 02:11:04.242
The king is a thing...
02:11:04.243 --> 02:11:07.836
- A thing, my lord!
- Of nothing.
02:11:14.033 --> 02:11:15.741
Bring me to him.
02:11:17.020 --> 02:11:18.665
Hide fox, and all after.
02:11:20.209 --> 02:11:22.697
I have sent to seek him,
and to find the body.
02:11:23.593 --> 02:11:26.975
How dangerous is it that
this man goes loose!
02:11:27.035 --> 02:11:29.913
Yet must not we put
the strong law on him:
02:11:30.285 --> 02:11:32.987
He's loved of the distracted multitude,
02:11:32.988 --> 02:11:36.400
Who like not in their judgment,
but their eyes;
02:11:36.446 --> 02:11:39.187
And where tis so, the offender's
scourge is weigh'd,
02:11:39.188 --> 02:11:40.857
But never the offence.
02:11:40.858 --> 02:11:43.351
To bear all smooth and even,
02:11:43.352 --> 02:11:47.155
This sudden sending him away must seem
Deliberate pause:
02:11:47.443 --> 02:11:50.947
diseases desperate grown
By desperate measure are relieved,
02:11:50.948 --> 02:11:53.353
- Or not at all.
- How now! what hath befall'n?
02:11:53.354 --> 02:11:57.925
Where the dead body is bestow'd, my lord,
We cannot get from him.
02:11:58.381 --> 02:11:58.919
But where is he?
02:11:58.920 --> 02:12:01.608
Without, my lord; guarded,
to know your pleasure.
02:12:01.609 --> 02:12:04.831
- Bring him before us.
- Guildenstern! bring in my lord.
02:12:09.682 --> 02:12:11.500
Now, Hamlet,
02:12:14.685 --> 02:12:16.970
where's Polonius?
02:12:16.996 --> 02:12:18.364
At supper.
02:12:18.365 --> 02:12:20.759
At supper! where?
02:12:21.056 --> 02:12:24.423
Not where he eats,
but where he is eaten:
02:12:24.478 --> 02:12:28.399
a certain convocation of politic
worms are e'en at him.
02:12:28.400 --> 02:12:30.846
Your worm is your only emperor for diet.
02:12:30.968 --> 02:12:33.007
we fat all creatures else to fat ourselves,
02:12:33.008 --> 02:12:35.618
- and we fat ourselves for maggots.
- Alas, alas!
02:12:35.619 --> 02:12:38.644
A man may fish with the worm
that hath eat of a king,
02:12:38.645 --> 02:12:41.436
and eat of the fish
that hath fed of that worm.
02:12:41.660 --> 02:12:43.242
What dost you mean by this?
02:12:43.243 --> 02:12:45.384
Nothing but to show you
02:12:45.385 --> 02:12:49.131
how a king may go a progress
through the guts of a beggar.
02:12:49.132 --> 02:12:50.782
Where is Polonius?
02:12:50.783 --> 02:12:52.807
In heaven!
02:12:53.947 --> 02:12:55.610
Send hither to see.
02:12:56.550 --> 02:13:00.465
if your messenger find him not there,
seek him i' the other place yourself.
02:13:00.466 --> 02:13:05.040
But indeed, if you find him
not within this month,
02:13:05.041 --> 02:13:09.421
you shall nose him as you go up the
stairs into the lobby.
02:13:09.422 --> 02:13:10.964
Go seek him there.
02:13:14.958 --> 02:13:17.142
He will stay till ye come.
02:13:18.560 --> 02:13:22.921
Hamlet, this deed,
for thine especial safety,--
02:13:22.922 --> 02:13:27.980
Which we do tender, as we dearly grieve,--
02:13:28.060 --> 02:13:30.934
must send thee hence
With fiery quickness.
02:13:30.935 --> 02:13:33.039
therefore prepare thyself.
02:13:33.560 --> 02:13:37.416
The bark is ready, and the wind at help,
The associates tend,
02:13:38.261 --> 02:13:42.209
- and every thing is bent for England.
- For England!
02:13:42.210 --> 02:13:43.537
- Ay, Hamlet.
- Good.
02:13:43.538 --> 02:13:46.674
So is it, if thou knew'st our purposes.
02:13:47.034 --> 02:13:49.401
I see a cherub that sees them.
02:13:51.377 --> 02:13:54.288
Come; for England!
Farewell, dear mother.
02:13:54.289 --> 02:13:57.093
Thy loving father, Hamlet.
02:13:57.100 --> 02:13:58.748
My mother,
02:13:58.808 --> 02:14:00.885
father and mother is man and wife,
02:14:00.886 --> 02:14:04.030
man and wife is one flesh;
and so, my mother.
02:14:05.410 --> 02:14:07.495
Come, for England!
02:14:15.342 --> 02:14:17.629
Follow him at foot;
tempt him with speed aboard;
02:14:17.630 --> 02:14:19.992
Delay it not;
I'll have him hence to-night:
02:14:19.993 --> 02:14:24.792
For every thing is seal'd and done
That else leans on the affair. Away!
02:14:29.670 --> 02:14:31.154
And, England,
02:14:31.577 --> 02:14:33.695
if my love thou hold'st at aught--
02:14:33.696 --> 02:14:36.660
thou mayst not coldly set
Our sovereign purpose;
02:14:38.930 --> 02:14:41.327
The present death of Hamlet.
02:14:42.096 --> 02:14:44.013
Do it, England;
02:14:44.272 --> 02:14:49.227
For like the hectic in my blood he rages,
And thou must cure me:
02:14:51.479 --> 02:14:53.498
till I know 'tis done,
02:14:53.834 --> 02:14:58.147
Howe'er my haps,
my joys were ne'er begun.
02:14:58.339 --> 02:15:02.712
- I will not speak with her.
- She is importunate, indeed distract:
02:15:03.439 --> 02:15:04.932
Her mood will needs be pitied.
02:15:04.933 --> 02:15:08.276
- What would she have?
- She speaks much of her father;
02:15:08.972 --> 02:15:11.824
says she hears there's tricks i' the world;
speaks things in doubt,
02:15:11.825 --> 02:15:14.750
That carry but half sense:
her speech is nothing,
02:15:15.170 --> 02:15:18.146
Yet the unshaped use of it doth move
The hearers to collection;
02:15:18.147 --> 02:15:20.369
'Twere good she were spoken with;
02:15:20.476 --> 02:15:24.839
for she may strew dangerous conjectures
in ill-breeding minds.
02:15:25.601 --> 02:15:27.128
Let her come in.
02:15:30.353 --> 02:15:32.867
To my sick soul,
02:15:33.265 --> 02:15:35.804
as sin's true nature is,
02:15:35.805 --> 02:15:38.839
Each toy seems prologue
to some great amiss:
02:15:40.244 --> 02:15:43.405
So full of artless jealousy is guilt,
02:15:43.683 --> 02:15:46.866
It spills itself
in fearing to be spilt.
02:15:46.867 --> 02:15:49.753
Where is the beauteous
majesty of Denmark?
02:15:51.020 --> 02:15:54.137
How now, Ophelia!
02:15:54.592 --> 02:15:59.751
How should I your true love know
02:15:59.991 --> 02:16:03.451
From another one?
02:16:03.594 --> 02:16:06.993
By his cockle hat and staff,
02:16:06.994 --> 02:16:10.375
And his sandal shoon.
02:16:10.376 --> 02:16:15.024
Alas, sweet lady,
what imports this song?
02:16:15.060 --> 02:16:17.468
Say you? nay, pray you, mark.
02:16:18.307 --> 02:16:22.606
He is dead and gone, lady,
02:16:23.514 --> 02:16:26.532
He is dead and gone;
02:16:27.310 --> 02:16:30.647
At his head a grass-green turf,
02:16:30.648 --> 02:16:33.530
At his heels a stone.
02:16:33.531 --> 02:16:36.183
- Nay, but, Ophelia...
- Pray you, mark.
02:16:37.781 --> 02:16:42.705
White his shroud as the mountain snow,
02:16:44.174 --> 02:16:48.029
Larded with sweet flowers
02:16:49.647 --> 02:16:54.023
Which bewept to the grave did go
02:16:54.025 --> 02:16:58.513
With true-love showers.
02:16:59.040 --> 02:17:02.438
- How do you, pretty lady?
- Well, God 'ild you!
02:17:02.657 --> 02:17:05.763
They say the owl was a baker's
daughter.
02:17:10.775 --> 02:17:13.379
Lord, we know what we are,
02:17:16.767 --> 02:17:19.592
but know not what we may be.
02:17:22.749 --> 02:17:24.816
God be at your table!
02:17:26.155 --> 02:17:30.209
- Conceit upon her father.
- Pray you, let's have no words of this;
02:17:30.209 --> 02:17:32.162
but when they
ask you what it means, say you this:
02:17:32.163 --> 02:17:34.296
To-morrow is Saint Valentine's day,
02:17:34.297 --> 02:17:36.183
All in the morning betime,
02:17:36.183 --> 02:17:38.114
And I a maid at your window,
02:17:38.115 --> 02:17:40.123
To be your Valentine.
02:17:40.124 --> 02:17:41.938
Then up he rose,
and donn'd his clothes,
02:17:41.939 --> 02:17:43.848
And dupp'd the chamber-door;
02:17:43.849 --> 02:17:47.798
Let in the maid, that out a maid
Never departed more.
02:17:48.161 --> 02:17:49.877
Indeed, la, without an oath,
I'll make an end on't:
02:17:49.878 --> 02:17:52.603
By Gis and by Saint Charity,
02:17:52.605 --> 02:17:54.689
Alack, and fie for shame!
02:17:54.690 --> 02:17:58.021
Young men will do't,
if they come to't;
02:17:58.058 --> 02:18:00.366
By cock, they are to blame.
02:18:00.375 --> 02:18:03.089
Quoth she, before you tumbled me,
02:18:03.141 --> 02:18:05.437
You promised me to wed.
02:18:05.484 --> 02:18:08.218
So would I ha' done, by yonder sun,
02:18:08.308 --> 02:18:11.142
An thou hadst not come to my bed.
02:18:12.124 --> 02:18:16.603
- How long hath she been thus?
- I hope all will be well.
02:18:17.080 --> 02:18:18.727
We must be patient:
02:18:20.636 --> 02:18:24.147
but I cannot choose but weep,
02:18:24.147 --> 02:18:28.058
to think they should lay him
i' the cold ground.
02:18:32.129 --> 02:18:36.611
My brother shall know of it:
and so I thank you for your good counsel.
02:18:36.612 --> 02:18:39.013
Come, my coach!
02:18:39.084 --> 02:18:42.305
Good night, ladies; good night, sweet ladies;
good night, good night.
02:18:45.243 --> 02:18:46.736
Follow her close.
02:18:50.567 --> 02:18:53.269
Give her good watch, I pray you.
02:18:57.369 --> 02:19:00.732
O, this is the poison of deep grief;
02:19:00.999 --> 02:19:06.951
it springs all from her father's death.
02:19:09.808 --> 02:19:13.054
O Gertrude, Gertrude,
02:19:13.055 --> 02:19:18.268
When sorrows come, they come not single spies
But in battalions.
02:19:18.928 --> 02:19:21.050
First, her father slain:
02:19:21.474 --> 02:19:24.680
Next, your son gone;
and he most violent author
02:19:24.681 --> 02:19:27.682
Of his own just remove.
02:19:28.370 --> 02:19:31.748
the people muddied,
Thick and unwholesome in their
02:19:31.968 --> 02:19:34.545
thoughts and whispers,
For good Polonius' death;
02:19:34.546 --> 02:19:39.629
and we have done but greenly,
In hugger-mugger to inter him.
02:19:41.206 --> 02:19:42.799
poor Ophelia,
02:19:43.099 --> 02:19:46.475
Divided from herself
and her fair judgment,
02:19:46.476 --> 02:19:49.994
Without the which we are pictures,
02:19:51.662 --> 02:19:53.828
or mere beasts.
02:19:55.256 --> 02:19:59.500
Last, and as much
containing as all these,
02:19:59.882 --> 02:20:02.817
Her brother is in secret
come from France;
02:20:02.818 --> 02:20:06.247
And wants not buzzers
to infect his ear
02:20:06.248 --> 02:20:09.193
With pestilent speeches
of his father's death;
02:20:10.345 --> 02:20:12.569
Alack, what noise is this?
02:20:12.570 --> 02:20:15.352
Where are my Switzers?
Let them guard the door.
02:20:16.245 --> 02:20:17.980
Save yourself, my lord:
02:20:17.981 --> 02:20:21.332
Laertes, in a riotous head,
O'erbears your officers.
02:20:21.333 --> 02:20:26.556
The rabble call him lord;
They cry 'Choose we: Laertes shall be king:'
02:20:27.410 --> 02:20:30.016
Caps, hands, and tongues,
applaud it to the clouds:
02:20:30.017 --> 02:20:32.970
'Laertes shall be king,
Laertes king!'
02:20:32.971 --> 02:20:35.232
How cheerfully on
the false trail they cry!
02:20:35.233 --> 02:20:40.939
O, this is counter,
you false Danish dogs!
02:20:41.003 --> 02:20:42.395
The doors are broke.
02:20:42.396 --> 02:20:44.480
Thou vile king,
Give me my father!
02:20:44.481 --> 02:20:45.439
Calmly, good Laertes.
02:20:45.440 --> 02:20:48.310
That drop of blood that's
calm proclaims me bastard,
02:20:48.311 --> 02:20:52.428
What is the cause, Laertes,
That thy rebellion looks so giant-like?
02:20:52.429 --> 02:20:53.892
Let him go, Gertrude;
02:20:53.893 --> 02:20:56.002
do not fear our person:
02:20:56.003 --> 02:20:58.753
There's such divinity
doth hedge a king,
02:20:58.754 --> 02:21:00.854
That treason can but
peep to what it would,
02:21:00.855 --> 02:21:02.817
Acts little of his will.
02:21:02.818 --> 02:21:07.391
Tell me, Laertes, why thou art
thus incensed. Let him go, Gertrude.
02:21:07.659 --> 02:21:09.415
- Speak, man.
- Where is my father?
02:21:09.416 --> 02:21:10.898
- Dead.
- But not by him.
02:21:10.899 --> 02:21:13.186
- Let him demand his fill.
- How came he dead?
02:21:13.187 --> 02:21:15.186
I'll not be juggled with:
02:21:15.716 --> 02:21:19.317
To hell, allegiance!
vows, to the blackest devil!
02:21:19.318 --> 02:21:22.224
Conscience and grace,
to the profoundest pit!
02:21:22.225 --> 02:21:24.278
I dare damnation.
02:21:24.279 --> 02:21:26.536
To this point I stand,
Let come what comes.
02:21:26.537 --> 02:21:29.495
Only I'll be revenged
Most thoroughly for my father.
02:21:29.496 --> 02:21:33.197
- Who shall stay you?
- My will, not all the world:
02:21:33.198 --> 02:21:37.760
Good Laertes, if you desire to know
the certainty of your dear father's death,
02:21:37.761 --> 02:21:40.677
is't writ in your revenge,
That, swoopstake,
02:21:40.678 --> 02:21:43.653
you will draw both friend and foe,
Winner and loser?
02:21:43.654 --> 02:21:46.663
- None but his enemies.
- Will you know them then?
02:21:46.788 --> 02:21:50.024
To his good friends
thus wide I'll ope my arms;
02:21:50.025 --> 02:21:54.176
And like the kind life-rendering pelican,
Repast them with my blood.
02:21:54.177 --> 02:21:58.479
Why, now you speak
Like a good child and a true gentleman.
02:21:58.480 --> 02:22:04.153
That I am guiltless of your father's death,
And am most sensible in grief for it,
02:22:04.154 --> 02:22:06.078
It shall as level to your judgment pierce
02:22:06.079 --> 02:22:07.946
As day does to your eye.
02:22:07.947 --> 02:22:10.922
- Let her come in.
- How now! what noise is that?
02:22:15.711 --> 02:22:18.344
O heat, dry up my brains!
02:22:20.451 --> 02:22:23.146
tears seven times salt,
02:22:23.147 --> 02:22:25.724
Burn out the sense and virtue of mine eye!
02:22:25.725 --> 02:22:27.253
O rose of May!
02:22:29.417 --> 02:22:34.824
Dear maid, kind sister, sweet Ophelia!
02:22:34.825 --> 02:22:36.765
O heavens! is't possible,
a young maid's wits
02:22:36.766 --> 02:22:39.093
Should be as moral as an old man's life?
02:22:39.094 --> 02:22:44.495
They bore him barefaced on the bier;
02:22:45.795 --> 02:22:50.405
Hey nony nonny, nonny, no;
02:22:51.293 --> 02:22:58.790
And in his grave rain'd many a tear:--
02:22:59.713 --> 02:23:03.763
Fare you well, my dove!
02:23:03.764 --> 02:23:05.478
Hadst thou thy wits,
and didst persuade revenge,
02:23:05.479 --> 02:23:09.311
- It could not move thus.
- You must sing a-down a-down,
An you call him a-down-a.
02:23:09.593 --> 02:23:11.815
This nothing's more than matter.
02:23:12.333 --> 02:23:14.032
There's rosemary,
02:23:15.256 --> 02:23:17.801
that's for remembrance;
02:23:18.772 --> 02:23:22.034
pray, love, remember:
02:23:26.210 --> 02:23:28.453
and there is pansies.
02:23:29.058 --> 02:23:31.040
that's for thoughts.
02:23:32.766 --> 02:23:34.551
A document in madness,
02:23:35.298 --> 02:23:37.527
thoughts and remembrance fitted.
02:23:39.173 --> 02:23:41.142
There's fennel for you,
02:23:41.881 --> 02:23:43.454
and columbines:
02:23:47.038 --> 02:23:48.677
there's rue for you;
02:23:50.523 --> 02:23:52.380
and here's some for me:
02:23:54.640 --> 02:23:56.308
we may call it
02:23:56.418 --> 02:23:59.160
herb-grace o' Sundays:
02:24:01.317 --> 02:24:05.189
O you must wear your rue with
a difference.
02:24:11.206 --> 02:24:12.660
There's a daisy:
02:24:14.076 --> 02:24:16.039
I would give you some violets,
02:24:16.981 --> 02:24:18.472
but they withered
02:24:19.065 --> 02:24:20.443
all
02:24:20.610 --> 02:24:22.861
when my father died:
02:24:27.033 --> 02:24:29.000
they say he made a good end,--
02:24:30.370 --> 02:24:36.626
For bonny sweet Robin
is all my joy.
02:24:36.627 --> 02:24:41.199
Thought and affliction, passion,
02:24:41.517 --> 02:24:44.970
hell itself,
She turns to favour and to prettiness.
02:24:45.536 --> 02:24:51.015
And will he not come again?
02:24:52.370 --> 02:24:58.067
And will he not come again?
02:24:59.510 --> 02:25:02.667
No, no, he is dead:
02:25:03.276 --> 02:25:06.762
Go to thy death-bed:
02:25:07.513 --> 02:25:12.090
He never will come again.
02:25:13.048 --> 02:25:18.321
His beard was as white as snow,
02:25:19.338 --> 02:25:25.135
All flaxen was his poll:
02:25:27.513 --> 02:25:30.567
He is gone, he is gone,
02:25:34.486 --> 02:25:36.630
And we cast away moan:
02:25:38.459 --> 02:25:40.681
God ha' mercy on his soul!
02:25:42.407 --> 02:25:47.425
And of all Christian souls, I pray God.
02:25:50.284 --> 02:25:51.930
God be wi' ye.
02:25:53.547 --> 02:25:56.774
Do you see this, O God?
02:25:57.174 --> 02:25:58.782
Laertes.
02:26:04.104 --> 02:26:06.723
I must commune with your grief,
02:26:06.724 --> 02:26:09.063
Or you deny me right.
02:26:09.791 --> 02:26:13.992
Go but apart, make choice of whom
your wisest friends you will.
02:26:13.993 --> 02:26:17.698
And they shall hear
and judge 'twixt you and me:
02:26:17.699 --> 02:26:21.510
If by direct or by collateral hand
02:26:21.511 --> 02:26:26.545
They find us touch'd, we will our kingdom give,
Our crown,
02:26:27.479 --> 02:26:30.863
our life, and all that we can ours,
02:26:31.452 --> 02:26:33.654
To you in satisfaction;
02:26:34.514 --> 02:26:36.345
but if not,
02:26:36.856 --> 02:26:40.350
Be you content to lend
your patience to us,
02:26:40.512 --> 02:26:46.118
And we shall jointly labour with your soul
To give it due content.
02:26:48.090 --> 02:26:49.973
Let this be so;
02:26:53.537 --> 02:26:56.085
And where the offence is
02:26:57.014 --> 02:26:59.632
let the great axe fall.
02:27:00.608 --> 02:27:03.233
Go, captain, from me
greet the Danish king;
02:27:03.234 --> 02:27:05.340
Tell him that,
by his licence, Fortinbras
02:27:05.341 --> 02:27:07.617
Craves the conveyance of a promised
march over his kingdom.
02:27:07.618 --> 02:27:10.006
- I will do't, my lord.
- Go softly on.
02:27:16.854 --> 02:27:20.001
Sir, whose powers are these?
02:27:20.115 --> 02:27:22.099
They are of Norway, sir.
02:27:22.324 --> 02:27:24.453
How purposed, sir, I pray you?
02:27:24.485 --> 02:27:26.818
Against some part of Poland.
02:27:27.309 --> 02:27:29.222
Who commands them, sir?
02:27:29.309 --> 02:27:32.072
The nephews to old Norway, Fortinbras.
02:27:32.421 --> 02:27:35.395
Goes it against the main of Poland, sir,
Or for some frontier?
02:27:36.400 --> 02:27:40.380
Truly to speak, and with no addition,
We go to gain a little patch of ground
02:27:40.381 --> 02:27:43.783
That hath in it no profit but the name.
02:27:43.964 --> 02:27:47.217
To pay five ducats, five,
I would not farm it;
02:27:47.218 --> 02:27:49.429
Why, then the Pole never will defend it.
02:27:49.430 --> 02:27:52.220
Yes, it is already garrison'd.
02:27:52.652 --> 02:27:55.676
Two thousand souls
and twenty thousand ducats
02:27:55.677 --> 02:27:58.484
Will not debate
the question of this straw.
02:27:59.476 --> 02:28:01.529
I humbly thank you, sir.
02:28:01.575 --> 02:28:03.590
God be wi' you, sir.
02:28:22.372 --> 02:28:25.706
How all occasions do inform against me,
02:28:26.467 --> 02:28:29.457
And spur my dull revenge!
02:28:32.397 --> 02:28:37.583
I do not know why yet I live
to say 'This thing's to do;'
02:28:37.584 --> 02:28:39.519
Sith I have cause
02:28:39.877 --> 02:28:41.423
and will
02:28:41.894 --> 02:28:44.939
and strength and means to do't.
02:28:47.091 --> 02:28:49.605
Examples gross as earth exhort me:
02:28:49.606 --> 02:28:54.512
Witness this army of such mass and charge,
02:28:54.831 --> 02:28:58.827
Led by a delicate and tender prince,
02:28:59.619 --> 02:29:03.732
Whose spirit with
divine ambition puff'd
02:29:03.733 --> 02:29:06.594
Makes mouths at the invisible event,
02:29:07.769 --> 02:29:11.985
Exposing what is mortal and unsure
To all that fortune,
02:29:11.986 --> 02:29:14.600
death and danger dare,
02:29:18.232 --> 02:29:20.456
Even for an egg-shell.
02:29:25.430 --> 02:29:27.689
O, from this time forth,
02:29:30.127 --> 02:29:32.524
My thoughts be bloody,
02:29:34.364 --> 02:29:36.529
or be nothing worth!
02:29:48.508 --> 02:29:52.701
Laertes, was your
father dear to you?
02:29:52.702 --> 02:29:56.917
Or are you like the painting of a sorrow,
A face without a heart?
02:29:56.918 --> 02:29:58.648
Why ask you this?
02:30:00.165 --> 02:30:02.348
Hamlet comes back.
02:30:03.546 --> 02:30:06.251
what would you undertake,
to show yourself your father's son
02:30:06.252 --> 02:30:08.956
in deed more than in words?
02:30:11.182 --> 02:30:13.933
To cut his throat i' the church.
02:30:15.949 --> 02:30:18.883
No place, indeed,
should murder sanctuarize;
02:30:19.739 --> 02:30:22.031
Revenge should have no bounds.
02:30:26.817 --> 02:30:30.930
But, good Laertes, will you do this,
keep close within your chamber.
02:30:30.931 --> 02:30:33.779
Hamlet return'd shall know
you are come home:
02:30:33.780 --> 02:30:37.103
We'll set on those shall
praise your excellence
02:30:37.104 --> 02:30:40.569
and for your rapier most especially.
02:30:40.570 --> 02:30:43.873
Bring you in fine together
And wager on your heads:
02:30:43.999 --> 02:30:48.418
he, being remiss, most generous
and free from all contriving,
02:30:48.419 --> 02:30:51.005
Will not peruse the foils;
so that, with ease,
02:30:51.006 --> 02:30:54.690
Or with a little shuffling,
02:30:54.979 --> 02:30:58.372
you may choose a sword unbated,
02:30:58.420 --> 02:31:01.594
and in a pass of practise
requite him for your father.
02:31:01.595 --> 02:31:03.029
I will do't:
02:31:05.436 --> 02:31:09.087
And, for that purpose,
I'll anoint my sword.
02:31:10.095 --> 02:31:12.678
I bought an unction of a mountebank,
02:31:13.060 --> 02:31:15.354
So mortal that,
but dip a knife in it,
02:31:15.355 --> 02:31:17.634
Where it draws blood
no cataplasm so rare,
02:31:17.635 --> 02:31:20.462
can save the thing from death
That is but scratch'd withal:
02:31:20.463 --> 02:31:23.569
I'll touch my point
with this contagion, that,
02:31:23.570 --> 02:31:26.188
if I gall him slightly,
it may be his death.
02:31:27.144 --> 02:31:30.405
Let's further think of this;
02:31:32.110 --> 02:31:35.382
if this should fail, and that our drift
look through our bad performance,
02:31:35.383 --> 02:31:37.304
'Twere better not assay'd:
02:31:37.307 --> 02:31:39.983
therefore this project
Should have a back or second,
02:31:39.984 --> 02:31:42.391
that might hold,
If this should blast in proof.
02:31:42.404 --> 02:31:43.701
Soft!
02:31:45.468 --> 02:31:46.945
I ha't.
02:31:47.807 --> 02:31:49.949
When in your motion you a
re hot and dry--
02:31:49.950 --> 02:31:52.245
As make your bouts
more violent to that end--
02:31:52.246 --> 02:31:54.915
And that he calls for drink,
02:31:55.391 --> 02:32:00.587
I'll have prepared him
A chalice for the nonce,
02:32:00.588 --> 02:32:03.304
whereon but sipping,
If he by chance escape your venom'd stuck,
02:32:03.305 --> 02:32:06.020
Our purpose may hold there.
02:32:08.369 --> 02:32:10.292
How now, sweet queen!
02:32:10.293 --> 02:32:14.843
One woe doth tread upon another's heel,
So fast they follow;
02:32:15.605 --> 02:32:18.564
your sister's drown'd, Laertes.
02:32:19.919 --> 02:32:24.823
Drown'd! O, where?
02:32:27.624 --> 02:32:29.415
There is a willow
02:32:29.967 --> 02:32:32.396
grows aslant a brook,
02:32:32.758 --> 02:32:35.833
That shows his hoar
leaves in the glassy stream;
02:32:35.834 --> 02:32:40.625
There with fantastic
garlands did she come
02:32:40.626 --> 02:32:43.274
Of crow-flowers, nettles,
02:32:43.677 --> 02:32:45.703
daisies, and long purples
02:32:45.704 --> 02:32:48.159
That liberal shepherds
give a grosser name,
02:32:48.160 --> 02:32:52.361
But our cold maids do
dead men's fingers call them:
02:32:52.911 --> 02:32:56.359
There, on the pendent boughs
02:32:56.360 --> 02:32:59.646
her coronet weeds clambering to hang,
02:32:59.647 --> 02:33:01.920
an envious sliver broke;
02:33:01.953 --> 02:33:05.123
When down her weedy
trophies and herself
02:33:05.941 --> 02:33:08.368
Fell in the weeping brook.
02:33:08.369 --> 02:33:09.949
Her clothes
02:33:10.070 --> 02:33:12.180
spread wide and
02:33:13.495 --> 02:33:16.486
mermaid-like, awhile they bore her up:
02:33:17.003 --> 02:33:19.833
Which time she chanted
snatches of old tunes;
02:33:19.834 --> 02:33:24.339
As one incapable of her own distress,
02:33:25.312 --> 02:33:29.044
Or like a creature native and indued
Unto that element:
02:33:29.045 --> 02:33:33.163
but long it could not be
02:33:33.566 --> 02:33:36.662
Till that her garments,
heavy with their drink,
02:33:36.868 --> 02:33:39.224
Pull'd the poor wretch from her
02:33:39.493 --> 02:33:41.596
melodious lay
02:33:43.209 --> 02:33:46.314
- To muddy death.
- Alas, then, she is drown'd?
02:33:47.465 --> 02:33:48.879
Drown'd.
02:33:51.854 --> 02:33:53.567
Drown'd.
02:34:00.828 --> 02:34:03.626
Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia,
02:34:04.006 --> 02:34:05.609
And therefore
02:34:05.983 --> 02:34:08.946
I forbid my tears: but yet
02:34:09.320 --> 02:34:11.079
It is our trick.
02:34:12.515 --> 02:34:15.046
nature her custom holds,
02:34:15.047 --> 02:34:17.808
Let shame say what it will.
Adieu, my lord.
02:34:18.541 --> 02:34:23.042
I have a speech of fire,
that fain would blaze,
02:34:24.977 --> 02:34:27.511
But that this folly douts it.
02:34:31.302 --> 02:34:33.062
Let's follow, Gertrude.
02:34:33.199 --> 02:34:36.673
How much I had to do
to calm his rage!
02:34:37.564 --> 02:34:41.154
Now fear I this will
give it start again;
02:34:46.343 --> 02:34:49.108
Is she to be buried in Christian burial
02:34:49.140 --> 02:34:51.435
that wilfully seeks her own salvation?
02:34:51.436 --> 02:34:53.092
I tell thee she is:
02:34:53.093 --> 02:34:55.912
and therefore make her grave straight:
02:34:56.546 --> 02:35:00.498
How can that be, unless she drowned
herself in her own defence?
02:35:00.499 --> 02:35:03.633
Why, 'tis found so.
02:35:03.665 --> 02:35:05.426
It must be 'se offendendo;'
02:35:05.427 --> 02:35:08.948
it cannot be else.
For here lies the point:
02:35:09.066 --> 02:35:12.377
if I drown myself wittingly,
it argues an act:
02:35:12.378 --> 02:35:14.635
and an act hath three branches:
02:35:14.636 --> 02:35:16.541
it is, to act, to do, to perform:
02:35:16.542 --> 02:35:18.415
argal, she drowned herself wittingly.
02:35:18.416 --> 02:35:23.254
- Nay, but hear you, goodman delver...
- Give me leave. Here lies the water; good:
02:35:23.682 --> 02:35:25.656
here stands the man; good;
02:35:25.657 --> 02:35:29.018
if the man go to this water,
and drown himself,
02:35:29.019 --> 02:35:32.450
it is, will he, nill he, he goes,--
mark you that;
02:35:32.561 --> 02:35:37.197
but if the water come to him
and drown him, he drowns not himself:
02:35:37.198 --> 02:35:41.849
Argal, he that is not guilty of his own
death shortens not his own life.
02:35:42.503 --> 02:35:45.495
Cudgel thy brains no more about it.
02:35:47.268 --> 02:35:49.093
Go, get thee to Yaughan
02:35:49.094 --> 02:35:51.050
fetch me a stoup of liquor.
02:35:54.551 --> 02:35:58.535
In youth, when I did love, did love,
02:35:58.536 --> 02:36:01.413
Methought it was very sweet...
02:36:01.928 --> 02:36:05.217
Has this fellow no feeling of his business,
that he sings at grave-making?
02:36:05.218 --> 02:36:09.498
- Custom hath made it in him a property of easiness.
- 'Tis e'en so
02:36:13.386 --> 02:36:15.757
That skull had a tongue in it,
and could sing once:
02:36:16.238 --> 02:36:18.832
how the knave jowls it
to the ground, as if it were
02:36:18.833 --> 02:36:21.537
Cain's jaw-bone,
that did the first murder!
02:36:24.782 --> 02:36:26.740
It might be the pate of a politician,
02:36:28.123 --> 02:36:30.543
one that would circumvent God,
might it not?
02:36:30.544 --> 02:36:31.911
It might, my lord.
02:36:32.131 --> 02:36:33.805
and now my Lady Worm's,
02:36:34.485 --> 02:36:35.902
chapless,
02:36:36.594 --> 02:36:39.508
and knocked about the mazzard
with a sexton's spade:
02:36:41.166 --> 02:36:43.822
here's fine revolution,
an we had the trick to see't.
02:36:47.319 --> 02:36:48.853
There's another.
02:36:49.306 --> 02:36:51.641
Why may not that be
the skull of a lawyer?
02:36:54.517 --> 02:36:56.531
Where be his quiddities now,
02:36:56.962 --> 02:36:58.984
his quillets, his tricks?
02:37:00.367 --> 02:37:02.191
why does he suffer
this rude knave now
02:37:02.192 --> 02:37:03.940
to knock him about the
sconce with a dirty shovel
02:37:03.941 --> 02:37:06.577
and will not tell him of
his action of battery? Ha?
02:37:09.333 --> 02:37:11.043
I will speak to this fellow.
02:37:11.498 --> 02:37:13.395
Whose grave's this, sirrah?
02:37:13.801 --> 02:37:15.274
Mine, sir.
02:37:15.275 --> 02:37:18.935
O, a pit of clay for to be made
02:37:18.936 --> 02:37:21.005
For such a guest is meet.
02:37:21.006 --> 02:37:23.736
I think it be thine, indeed;
for thou liest in't.
02:37:23.756 --> 02:37:26.363
You lie out on't, sir,
and therefore it is not yours
02:37:26.364 --> 02:37:29.607
for my part, I do not lie in't,
and yet it is mine.
02:37:30.342 --> 02:37:32.959
'Thou dost lie in't,
to be in't and say it is thine:
02:37:32.960 --> 02:37:35.639
'tis for the dead, not for the quick;
therefore thou liest.
02:37:35.640 --> 02:37:39.936
'Tis a quick lie, sir;
'twill away gain, from me to you.
02:37:41.003 --> 02:37:43.097
What man dost thou dig it for?
02:37:43.098 --> 02:37:44.718
For no man, sir.
02:37:44.832 --> 02:37:46.274
What woman, then?
02:37:46.349 --> 02:37:48.008
For none, neither.
02:37:48.413 --> 02:37:50.279
Who is to be buried in't?
02:37:50.280 --> 02:37:51.859
One that was a woman, sir; but,
02:37:51.860 --> 02:37:54.134
rest her soul, she's dead.
02:37:55.599 --> 02:37:57.433
How absolute the knave is!
02:37:58.058 --> 02:37:59.861
How long hast thou been a grave-maker?
02:37:59.862 --> 02:38:02.869
Of all the days i' the year,
I came to't that day
02:38:02.870 --> 02:38:06.202
that our last king Hamlet
overcame Fortinbras.
02:38:06.581 --> 02:38:08.007
How long is that since?
02:38:08.008 --> 02:38:09.545
Cannot you tell that?
02:38:09.864 --> 02:38:11.757
Every fool can tell that.
02:38:11.896 --> 02:38:14.108
it was the very day
that young Hamlet was born;
02:38:14.109 --> 02:38:16.525
he that is mad,
and sent into England.
02:38:16.526 --> 02:38:19.298
Ay, marry, why was he
sent into England?
02:38:19.299 --> 02:38:21.067
Why, because he was mad:
02:38:21.631 --> 02:38:23.414
he shall recover his wits there;
02:38:23.415 --> 02:38:25.576
- or, if he do not, it's no great matter there.
- Why?
02:38:25.577 --> 02:38:29.007
'Twill, a not be seen in him there;
there the men are as mad as he.
02:38:30.890 --> 02:38:33.847
- How came he mad?
- Very strangely, they say.
02:38:33.848 --> 02:38:36.883
- How strangely?
- Faith, e'en with losing his wits.
02:38:36.884 --> 02:38:40.195
- Upon what ground?
- Why, here in Denmark:
02:38:44.408 --> 02:38:47.477
I have been sexton here, man
and boy, thirty years.
02:38:48.734 --> 02:38:51.531
How long will a man lie i'
the earth ere he rot?
02:38:51.532 --> 02:38:54.791
I' faith, if he be
not rotten before he die--
02:38:54.792 --> 02:38:56.880
have many pocky corses now-a-days,
02:38:56.881 --> 02:38:58.703
that will scarce hold the laying in--
02:38:58.704 --> 02:39:01.552
he will last you some eight year
or nine year:
02:39:01.553 --> 02:39:03.621
a tanner will last you nine year.
02:39:03.622 --> 02:39:05.397
Why he more than another?
02:39:05.398 --> 02:39:07.004
Why, sir, his hide is so tanned
02:39:07.005 --> 02:39:08.086
with his trade,
02:39:08.087 --> 02:39:10.404
that he will keep out water a great while;
02:39:10.405 --> 02:39:13.487
and your water is a sore decayer
of your whoreson dead body.
02:39:13.899 --> 02:39:15.874
Here's a skull, sir.
02:39:17.107 --> 02:39:18.875
has lain in the earth
02:39:19.300 --> 02:39:22.346
- three and twenty years.
- Whose was it?
02:39:23.692 --> 02:39:27.919
A whoreson mad fellow's it was:
whose do you think it was?
02:39:28.502 --> 02:39:30.369
Nay, I know not.
02:39:31.059 --> 02:39:34.020
A pestilence on him for a mad rogue!
02:39:34.212 --> 02:39:36.869
a' poured a flagon of Rhenish
on my head once.
02:39:37.850 --> 02:39:43.329
This skull, sir, was Yorick's skull,
the king's jester.
02:39:44.075 --> 02:39:47.732
- This?
- E'en that.
02:39:48.005 --> 02:39:49.732
- Let me see.
02:39:53.957 --> 02:39:57.655
Alas, poor Yorick!!
02:39:58.460 --> 02:40:00.220
I knew him, Horatio:
02:40:02.782 --> 02:40:05.058
a fellow of infinite jest,
02:40:07.225 --> 02:40:08.686
of most excellent fancy:
02:40:08.721 --> 02:40:13.688
he hath borne me on his back
a thousand times;
02:40:15.174 --> 02:40:16.691
and now,
02:40:17.453 --> 02:40:20.524
how abhorred in my imagination it is!
02:40:21.609 --> 02:40:24.068
my gorge rims at it.
02:40:26.956 --> 02:40:30.410
Here hung those lips
that I have kissed
02:40:31.227 --> 02:40:33.066
I know not how oft.
02:40:33.763 --> 02:40:36.112
Where be your gibes now?
02:40:36.331 --> 02:40:38.597
Your gambols? your songs?
02:40:38.953 --> 02:40:41.578
your flashes of merriment,
that were wont to set
02:40:41.579 --> 02:40:43.614
the table on a roar?
02:40:43.888 --> 02:40:46.509
Not one now,
to mock your own grinning?
02:40:47.108 --> 02:40:49.049
quite chap-fallen.
02:40:49.514 --> 02:40:52.799
Now get you to my
lady's chamber, and tell her,
02:40:53.803 --> 02:40:56.213
let her paint an inch thick,
02:40:56.813 --> 02:40:59.617
to this favour she must come.
02:41:00.568 --> 02:41:02.638
make her laugh at that.
02:41:06.736 --> 02:41:08.785
Prithee, Horatio, tell
me one thing.
02:41:08.786 --> 02:41:10.300
What's that, my lord?
02:41:11.702 --> 02:41:14.610
Dost thou think Alexander
looked o' this fashion i' the earth?
02:41:14.645 --> 02:41:15.782
E'en so.
02:41:16.307 --> 02:41:19.116
- And smelt so? pah!
- E'en so, my lord.
02:41:20.117 --> 02:41:21.883
Imperious Caesar,
02:41:22.373 --> 02:41:24.485
dead and turn'd to clay,
02:41:25.279 --> 02:41:27.680
Might stop a hole to keep the wind away.
02:41:27.681 --> 02:41:30.872
'Twere to consider too curiously,
to consider so.
02:41:31.285 --> 02:41:32.722
Not a jot.
02:41:50.393 --> 02:41:51.990
Here comes the king.
02:41:53.900 --> 02:41:56.775
The queen, the courtiers:
who is this they follow?
02:41:58.694 --> 02:42:01.482
And with such maimed rites?
This doth betoken
02:42:01.483 --> 02:42:03.252
The corse they follow
did with desperate hand
02:42:03.253 --> 02:42:05.144
fordo its own life.
02:42:09.811 --> 02:42:11.565
'Twas of some estate.
02:42:11.847 --> 02:42:13.742
Couch we awhile, and mark.
02:42:19.923 --> 02:42:22.677
- What ceremony else?
- That is Laertes, mark.
02:42:22.886 --> 02:42:24.911
What ceremony else?
02:42:25.026 --> 02:42:29.000
Her obsequies have been as far
enlarged as we have warrantise:
02:42:29.043 --> 02:42:30.842
her death was doubtful.
02:42:31.323 --> 02:42:34.580
And, but that great command
o'ersways the order,
02:42:34.723 --> 02:42:37.069
She should in ground
unsanctified have lodged
02:42:37.070 --> 02:42:38.956
Till the last trumpet.
02:42:38.957 --> 02:42:41.242
- Must there no more be done?
- No more be done.
02:42:41.990 --> 02:42:44.511
We should profane
the service of the dead
02:42:44.671 --> 02:42:47.081
To sing a requiem and such rest to her
02:42:47.082 --> 02:42:49.491
As to peace-parted souls.
02:42:49.492 --> 02:42:51.070
Lay her i' the earth.
02:43:08.696 --> 02:43:13.532
And from her fair and unpolluted
flesh may violets spring!
02:43:13.533 --> 02:43:15.917
I tell thee, churlish priest,
02:43:16.376 --> 02:43:18.095
A ministering angel
shall my sister be,
02:43:18.096 --> 02:43:20.404
When thou liest howling.
02:43:20.405 --> 02:43:22.057
What, the fair Ophelia!
02:43:22.058 --> 02:43:25.372
Sweets to the sweet.
02:43:25.693 --> 02:43:27.131
Farewell!
02:43:29.234 --> 02:43:32.416
I hoped thou shouldst
have been my Hamlet's wife;
02:43:32.472 --> 02:43:36.367
I thought thy bride-bed
to have deck'd, sweet maid,
02:43:37.132 --> 02:43:39.085
And not have strew'd thy grave.
02:43:39.086 --> 02:43:41.034
O, treble woe fall ten
02:43:41.035 --> 02:43:43.322
ten times treble on that cursed head,
02:43:43.323 --> 02:43:49.333
Whose wicked deed thy most ingenious sense
Deprived thee of!,
02:43:49.334 --> 02:43:51.508
Hold off the earth awhile,
02:43:54.294 --> 02:43:56.448
Till I have caught her
once more in mine arms.
02:44:01.606 --> 02:44:05.894
Now pile your dust
upon the quick and dead,
02:44:06.172 --> 02:44:09.824
Till of this flat
a mountain you have made,
02:44:09.825 --> 02:44:13.637
To o'ertop old Pelion, or the skyish head
Of blue Olympus.
02:44:13.638 --> 02:44:17.946
What is he whose grief
Bears such an emphasis?
02:44:18.512 --> 02:44:22.407
whose phrase of sorrow
Conjures the wandering stars,
02:44:22.408 --> 02:44:25.706
and makes them stand
Like wonder-wounded hearers?
02:44:26.469 --> 02:44:28.058
This is I,
02:44:28.729 --> 02:44:31.509
- Hamlet the Dane.
- The devil take thy soul!
02:44:32.924 --> 02:44:35.527
Thou pray'st not well.
I prithee, take thy fingers from my throat;
02:44:36.007 --> 02:44:37.402
For, though I am not
splenitive and rash,
02:44:37.403 --> 02:44:38.766
Yet have I something
in me dangerous,
02:44:38.767 --> 02:44:42.301
Which let thy wiseness fear:
hold off thy hand.
02:44:42.374 --> 02:44:44.777
- Pluck them asunder.
- Hamlet, Hamlet!
02:44:44.778 --> 02:44:47.118
- Gentlemen!
- Good my lord, be quiet.
02:44:47.119 --> 02:44:48.984
Why I will fight
with him upon this theme
02:44:48.985 --> 02:44:50.687
Until my eyelids
will no longer wag.
02:44:50.688 --> 02:44:52.997
O my son, what theme?
02:44:56.114 --> 02:44:58.110
I loved Ophelia.
02:44:58.826 --> 02:45:02.715
forty thousand brothers
Could not, with all their quantity of love,
02:45:02.716 --> 02:45:05.517
Make up my sum.
What wilt thou do for her?
02:45:05.518 --> 02:45:07.127
O, he is mad, Laertes.
02:45:07.128 --> 02:45:09.108
For love of God, forbear him.
02:45:09.430 --> 02:45:12.316
'Swounds, show me what thou'lt do:
Woo't weep?
02:45:12.341 --> 02:45:13.879
woo't fight? woo't fast?
02:45:13.880 --> 02:45:15.873
woo't tear thyself?
02:45:15.874 --> 02:45:17.876
Woo't drink up eisel?
02:45:17.877 --> 02:45:20.403
eat a crocodile?
I'll do't.
02:45:21.666 --> 02:45:24.051
Dost thou come here to whine?
02:45:24.625 --> 02:45:28.182
To outface me with
leaping in her grave?
02:45:28.183 --> 02:45:31.312
Be buried quick with her,
and so will I:
02:45:32.104 --> 02:45:37.774
And, if thou prate of mountains,
let them throw millions of acres on us,
02:45:37.775 --> 02:45:40.513
till our ground,
Singeing his pate
02:45:40.514 --> 02:45:42.745
against the burning zone,
02:45:42.746 --> 02:45:44.464
Make Ossa like a wart!
02:45:44.465 --> 02:45:48.854
Nay, an thou'lt mouth,
I'll rant as well as thou.
02:45:48.855 --> 02:45:53.460
This is mere madness:
And thus awhile the fit will work on him;
02:45:54.019 --> 02:45:57.898
Anon, his silence will sit drooping.
02:45:59.161 --> 02:46:00.873
Hear you, sir;
02:46:01.325 --> 02:46:03.693
What is the reason that you use me thus?
02:46:03.793 --> 02:46:05.505
I loved you ever
02:46:08.756 --> 02:46:10.741
but it is no matter.
02:46:13.270 --> 02:46:16.293
Let Hercules himself do what he may,
02:46:18.524 --> 02:46:20.567
The cat will mew
02:46:22.886 --> 02:46:25.410
and dog will have his day.
02:46:28.387 --> 02:46:31.162
Good Horatio, wait on him.
02:46:36.114 --> 02:46:38.703
Strengthen your patience
in our last night's speech.
02:46:38.704 --> 02:46:41.105
We'll put the matter to the present push.
02:46:41.431 --> 02:46:42.803
Good Gertrude,
02:46:43.131 --> 02:46:45.469
set some watch over your son.
02:46:53.110 --> 02:46:55.742
There's a divinity that shapes our ends,
02:46:56.562 --> 02:46:58.977
Rough-hew them how we will.
02:46:59.432 --> 02:47:01.303
That is most certain.
02:47:03.857 --> 02:47:05.604
So Guildenstern and Rosencrantz are dead.
02:47:05.605 --> 02:47:07.109
Why, man, they did make
love to this employment
02:47:07.110 --> 02:47:09.089
They are not near my conscience.
02:47:09.090 --> 02:47:13.323
- Why, what a king is this!
- Does it not, think'st thee, stand me now upon?
02:47:14.522 --> 02:47:17.594
He that hath kill'd my king
and whored my mother,
02:47:18.007 --> 02:47:21.007
Popp'd in between the election and my hopes,
02:47:21.657 --> 02:47:24.949
Thrown out his angle for my proper life,
And with such cozenage...
02:47:24.984 --> 02:47:28.679
is't not perfect conscience,
To quit him with this arm?
02:47:30.823 --> 02:47:35.016
But I am very sorry, good Horatio,
That to Laertes I forgot myself.
02:47:36.434 --> 02:47:40.765
For, by the image of my cause, I see
The portraiture of his.
02:47:41.353 --> 02:47:43.256
I'll court his favours.
02:47:44.435 --> 02:47:46.425
But, sure, the bravery of his
grief did put me
02:47:46.426 --> 02:47:48.241
Into a towering passion.
02:47:48.242 --> 02:47:49.837
- Peace!
- Who comes here?
02:47:49.872 --> 02:47:52.366
Your lordship is right
welcome back to Denmark.
02:47:52.367 --> 02:47:54.592
I humbly thank you, sir.
02:47:54.767 --> 02:47:57.339
- Dost know this water-fly?
- No, my lord.
02:47:57.340 --> 02:48:00.536
Thy state is the more gracious;
for 'tis a vice to know him.
02:48:00.537 --> 02:48:01.845
'Tis a chough.
02:48:01.846 --> 02:48:04.197
Sweet lord, if your lordship
were at leisure, I
02:48:04.198 --> 02:48:06.370
should impart a thing
to you from his majesty.
02:48:06.371 --> 02:48:08.811
I will receive it, sir,
with all diligence of spirit.
02:48:08.812 --> 02:48:11.656
Put your bonnet to his right use;
'tis for the head.
02:48:11.825 --> 02:48:14.410
I thank your lordship, it is very hot.
02:48:14.411 --> 02:48:18.839
Oh no, believe me, 'tis very cold;
the wind is northerly.
02:48:19.538 --> 02:48:21.440
It is indifferent cold, my lord, indeed.
02:48:21.441 --> 02:48:26.015
But yet methinks it is very sultry
and hot for my complexion.
02:48:26.016 --> 02:48:31.086
Exceedingly, my lord; it is very sultry,
as 'twere,...
02:48:31.087 --> 02:48:33.151
I cannot tell how.
02:48:33.152 --> 02:48:35.594
But, my lord, his majesty bade me
02:48:35.595 --> 02:48:38.513
signify to you that he has laid a
great wager on your head.
02:48:38.514 --> 02:48:41.247
- Sir, this is the matter...
- I beseech you, remember.
02:48:42.555 --> 02:48:46.042
Nay, good my lord; for mine ease,
in good faith.
02:48:46.043 --> 02:48:48.653
Sir, here is newly come to court Laertes,
02:48:48.654 --> 02:48:51.879
believe me, an absolute gentleman,
full of most excellent
02:48:51.880 --> 02:48:54.672
differences, of very soft society
and great showing.
02:48:56.645 --> 02:48:58.848
Indeed, to speak feelingly of him,
he is the card or
02:48:58.849 --> 02:49:00.796
calendar of gentry,
02:49:00.797 --> 02:49:02.941
for you shall find in him the
continent of what
02:49:02.942 --> 02:49:04.580
part a gentleman would see.
02:49:06.707 --> 02:49:10.450
The concernancy, sir?
02:49:10.451 --> 02:49:13.826
Why do we wrap the gentleman
in our more rawer breath?
02:49:14.645 --> 02:49:16.283
Sir?
02:49:16.318 --> 02:49:19.706
What imports the nomination
of this gentleman?
02:49:20.252 --> 02:49:23.142
- Of Laertes?
- Of him, sir.
02:49:24.526 --> 02:49:26.103
I know you are not ignorant.
02:49:26.104 --> 02:49:28.307
I would you did, sir;
yet, in faith, if you did,
02:49:28.308 --> 02:49:30.282
it would not much approve me.
Well, sir?
02:49:30.283 --> 02:49:32.810
You are not ignorant
of what excellence Laertes is.
02:49:32.811 --> 02:49:35.495
I dare not confess that, lest I should
compare with him in excellence;
02:49:35.496 --> 02:49:37.670
but, to know a man well,
02:49:37.671 --> 02:49:39.647
were to know himself.
02:49:42.383 --> 02:49:45.049
I mean, sir, for his weapon;
but in the imputation
02:49:45.050 --> 02:49:47.767
laid on him by them,
in his meed he's unfellowed.
02:49:47.768 --> 02:49:50.257
- What's his weapon?
- Rapier and dagger.
02:49:50.258 --> 02:49:52.180
That's two of his weapons: but, well.
02:49:52.648 --> 02:49:54.870
The king, sir, hath wagered
with him six Barbary
02:49:54.871 --> 02:49:57.633
horses: against the which he has imponed,
02:49:57.721 --> 02:50:00.049
as I take it, six French rapiers
02:50:00.050 --> 02:50:03.327
and poniards, with their
assigns, as girdle, hangers, and so.
02:50:03.349 --> 02:50:08.431
three of the carriages, in faith,
are very dear to fancy, very responsive to the hilts,
02:50:08.517 --> 02:50:11.395
most delicate carriages,
and of very liberal conceit.
02:50:11.396 --> 02:50:13.484
What call you the carriages?
02:50:18.298 --> 02:50:20.360
The carriages, sir, are the hangers.
02:50:22.421 --> 02:50:26.102
But, on. Why is this 'imponed,' as you call it?
02:50:26.684 --> 02:50:28.540
The king, sir, hath laid,
02:50:28.541 --> 02:50:30.306
that in a dozen passes between yourself
02:50:30.307 --> 02:50:33.231
and him, he shall not exceed you three hits:
02:50:33.357 --> 02:50:35.069
it would come to immediate trial, if your lordship
02:50:35.070 --> 02:50:37.324
would vouchsafe the answer.
02:50:37.742 --> 02:50:39.802
How if I answer 'no'?
02:50:42.663 --> 02:50:45.787
I mean, my lord, the opposition
of your person in trial.
02:50:48.467 --> 02:50:50.014
Well.
02:50:50.329 --> 02:50:53.118
I shall walk here in the hall:
if it please his majesty,
02:50:53.673 --> 02:50:57.231
'tis the breathing time of day with me.
I shall win for him an I can,
02:50:57.643 --> 02:51:00.842
if not, I will gain nothing
but my shame and the odd hits.
02:51:00.843 --> 02:51:03.423
Shall I re-deliver you e'en so?
02:51:03.424 --> 02:51:06.884
To this effect, sir;
after what flourish your nature will.
02:51:06.885 --> 02:51:08.842
I commend my duty to your lordship.
02:51:08.843 --> 02:51:10.694
Yours, yours.
02:51:13.576 --> 02:51:16.160
This lapwing runs away
with the shell on his head.
02:51:16.161 --> 02:51:19.038
He did comply with his mother's dug,
before he sucked it.
02:51:19.275 --> 02:51:20.918
You will lose this wager, my lord.
02:51:20.919 --> 02:51:25.193
I do not think so: since he went into France,
I have been in continual practise.
02:51:25.549 --> 02:51:27.262
I shall win at the odds.
02:51:29.753 --> 02:51:33.195
But thou wouldst not think how ill
all's here about my heart.
02:51:34.142 --> 02:51:35.622
- But it is no matter.
- Nay, good my lord.
02:51:35.623 --> 02:51:36.457
It is but foolery.
02:51:36.458 --> 02:51:38.253
If your mind dislike any thing, obey it.
02:51:38.254 --> 02:51:41.481
I will forestall their repair hither,
and say you are not fit.
02:51:41.482 --> 02:51:42.847
Not a whit.
02:51:44.362 --> 02:51:46.435
We defy augury.
02:51:48.937 --> 02:51:52.167
There's a special
providence in the fall of a sparrow.
02:51:54.436 --> 02:51:57.605
If it be now, 'tis not to come.
02:51:59.166 --> 02:52:01.628
If it be not to come, it will be now.
02:52:03.768 --> 02:52:05.632
If it be not now,
02:52:07.123 --> 02:52:08.983
Yet it will come.
02:52:12.095 --> 02:52:14.085
The readiness is all.
02:52:14.858 --> 02:52:19.054
Come, Hamlet, come,
and take this hand from me.
02:52:20.410 --> 02:52:22.999
Give me your pardon, sir:
I've done you wrong.
02:52:23.196 --> 02:52:25.304
But pardon't, as you are a gentleman.
02:52:25.638 --> 02:52:27.505
This presence knows,
And you must needs have heard,
02:52:27.506 --> 02:52:30.178
how I am punish'd
With sore distraction.
02:52:30.922 --> 02:52:34.229
What I have done,
That might your nature, honour and exception
02:52:34.230 --> 02:52:37.710
Roughly awake, I here proclaim was madness.
02:52:38.843 --> 02:52:43.329
Sir, in this audience,
Let my disclaiming from a purposed evil
02:52:43.334 --> 02:52:47.402
Free me so far in your most generous thoughts,
02:52:47.483 --> 02:52:51.672
That I have shot mine arrow o'er the house,
And hurt my brother.
02:52:51.673 --> 02:52:53.026
I am satisfied.
02:52:53.027 --> 02:52:57.104
I do receive your offer'd love like love,
And will not wrong it.
02:52:57.105 --> 02:52:58.816
I embrace it freely.
02:52:58.817 --> 02:53:01.928
And will this brother's wager frankly play.
Give us the foils. Come on.
02:53:01.963 --> 02:53:03.679
Come, one for me.
02:53:05.868 --> 02:53:08.689
I'll be your foil, Laertes: in mine ignorance
02:53:08.824 --> 02:53:10.994
Your skill shall, like a star
02:53:10.995 --> 02:53:14.032
i' the darkest night,
stick fiery off indeed.
02:53:14.098 --> 02:53:16.076
You mock me, sir.
02:53:16.513 --> 02:53:18.110
No, by this hand.
02:53:18.506 --> 02:53:20.678
Give them the foils, young Osric.
02:53:20.679 --> 02:53:22.794
Cousin Hamlet, you know the wager?
02:53:23.397 --> 02:53:26.697
Very well, my lord
Your grace hath laid the odds o' the weaker side.
02:53:26.698 --> 02:53:29.561
I do not fear it; I have seen you both:
02:53:29.562 --> 02:53:32.123
But since he is better'd, we have therefore odds.
02:53:32.124 --> 02:53:34.279
This is too heavy, let me see another.
02:53:35.730 --> 02:53:36.825
This likes me well.
02:53:36.826 --> 02:53:39.456
- These foils have all a length?
- Ay, my good lord.
02:53:39.457 --> 02:53:42.283
If Hamlet give the first or second hit,
02:53:42.284 --> 02:53:46.774
Or quit in answer of the third exchange,
02:53:46.775 --> 02:53:49.195
Let all the battlements their
ordnance fire:
02:53:49.196 --> 02:53:51.664
The king shall drink to Hamlet's
better breath;
02:53:51.665 --> 02:53:57.756
And in the cup an union
shall he throw,
02:53:57.865 --> 02:54:00.401
Richer than that which four
successive kings
02:54:00.402 --> 02:54:02.938
In Denmark's crown have worn.
02:54:07.728 --> 02:54:11.134
And let the kettle to the trumpet speak,
The trumpet to the cannoneer without,
02:54:11.135 --> 02:54:13.322
The cannons to the heavens,
the heavens to earth,
02:54:13.323 --> 02:54:16.383
'Now the king dunks to Hamlet.' Come, begin:
02:54:16.384 --> 02:54:19.668
And you, the judges, bear a wary eye.
02:54:32.634 --> 02:54:34.682
- Come on, sir.
- Come, my lord.
02:54:34.683 --> 02:54:35.337
- No.
- Judgment.
02:54:35.338 --> 02:54:37.554
A hit, a very palpable hit.
02:54:39.473 --> 02:54:42.504
- Well; again.
- Stay; give me drink.
02:54:43.559 --> 02:54:46.394
Hamlet, this pearl is thine;
02:54:46.851 --> 02:54:48.586
Here's to thy health.
02:54:48.587 --> 02:54:50.237
Give him the cup.
02:54:56.531 --> 02:54:59.040
I'll play this bout first;
set it by awhile.
02:55:16.312 --> 02:55:18.740
- Another hit; what say you?
- A touch, a touch, I do confess.
02:55:18.775 --> 02:55:20.369
Our son shall win.
02:55:21.841 --> 02:55:24.138
He's hot, and scant of breath.
02:55:24.204 --> 02:55:26.002
Here, Hamlet, take my napkin,
rub thy brows;
02:55:26.037 --> 02:55:28.891
The queen carouses to thy fortune, Hamlet.
02:55:28.892 --> 02:55:31.089
- Good madam!
- Gertrude,
02:55:32.697 --> 02:55:34.314
do not drink.
02:55:37.526 --> 02:55:39.221
I will, my lord.
02:55:39.844 --> 02:55:41.831
I pray you, pardon me.
02:55:43.577 --> 02:55:45.431
It is the poison'd cup.
02:55:45.432 --> 02:55:48.454
- It is too late.
- I dare not drink yet, madam; by and by.
02:55:48.789 --> 02:55:50.229
Come, let me wipe thy face.
02:55:50.230 --> 02:55:52.458
- My lord, I'll hit him now.
- I do not think't.
02:55:52.459 --> 02:55:55.726
And yet 'tis almost 'gainst my conscience.
02:55:55.843 --> 02:55:57.949
Come, for the third, Laertes:
you but dally;
02:55:57.950 --> 02:55:59.730
I pray you, pass with
your best violence;
02:55:59.731 --> 02:56:01.190
I am afeard you make a wanton of me.
02:56:01.292 --> 02:56:02.774
Say you so? come on.
02:56:14.860 --> 02:56:16.449
Nothing, neither way.
02:56:18.369 --> 02:56:19.657
Have at you now!
02:56:36.711 --> 02:56:38.571
Nay, come, again.
02:56:38.806 --> 02:56:40.407
Mio signore! Mio signore!
02:56:42.788 --> 02:56:45.213
My lord! My lord, my lord!
02:56:47.788 --> 02:56:48.713
Look to the queen there, ho!
02:56:55.908 --> 02:56:57.845
They bleed on both sides.
How is it, my lord?
02:56:57.846 --> 02:56:58.680
How is't, Laertes?
02:56:58.681 --> 02:57:01.474
Why, as a woodcock to mine
own springe, Osric;
02:57:01.475 --> 02:57:03.548
I am justly kill'd with
mine own treachery.
02:57:03.549 --> 02:57:06.143
- How does the queen?
- She swounds to see them bleed.
02:57:06.144 --> 02:57:11.030
No, no, the drink, the drink.
02:57:13.419 --> 02:57:15.347
O my dear Hamlet.
02:57:18.604 --> 02:57:21.319
The drink, the drink!
02:57:21.612 --> 02:57:23.723
I am poison'd.
02:57:26.552 --> 02:57:28.038
O villany!
02:57:29.503 --> 02:57:31.090
How!
02:57:31.132 --> 02:57:34.199
- Let the door be lock'd.
- Treachery! Seek it out.
02:57:34.940 --> 02:57:36.481
It is here, Hamlet.
02:57:37.355 --> 02:57:40.341
Hamlet, thou art slain.
02:57:40.947 --> 02:57:43.482
No medicine in the world can do thee good;
In thee there is not
02:57:43.483 --> 02:57:45.203
half an hour of life;
02:57:45.759 --> 02:57:50.375
The treacherous instrument is in thy hand,
unblunted and envenom'd.
02:57:50.844 --> 02:57:53.812
The foul practise hath turn'd itself on me.
02:57:55.005 --> 02:57:56.913
Lo, here I lie,
02:57:56.992 --> 02:57:59.861
Never to rise again.
Thy mother's poison'd.
02:58:00.260 --> 02:58:01.836
I can no more.
02:58:02.813 --> 02:58:05.784
The king, the king's to blame!
02:58:14.076 --> 02:58:17.138
O, yet defend me, friends;
I am but hurt.
02:58:19.775 --> 02:58:21.160
Here,
02:58:23.618 --> 02:58:28.523
thou incestuous, murderous, damned Dane,
02:58:28.524 --> 02:58:30.760
Drink off this potion.
02:58:35.346 --> 02:58:37.230
Is thy union here?
02:58:41.000 --> 02:58:42.939
Follow my mother.
02:58:44.317 --> 02:58:48.257
He is justly served;
It is a poison temper'd by himself.
02:58:48.258 --> 02:58:50.917
Exchange forgiveness with me,
noble Hamlet:
02:58:52.150 --> 02:58:55.065
Mine and my father's death
come not upon thee,
02:58:56.040 --> 02:58:58.045
Nor thine on me.
02:59:04.803 --> 02:59:06.821
Heaven make thee free of it!
02:59:08.958 --> 02:59:10.645
I follow thee.
02:59:12.178 --> 02:59:15.503
I am dead, Horatio.
02:59:17.146 --> 02:59:19.207
Wretched queen, adieu!
02:59:20.683 --> 02:59:23.855
You that look pale
and tremble at this chance,
02:59:25.088 --> 02:59:28.153
That are but mutes
or audience to this act,
02:59:29.553 --> 02:59:35.732
Had I but time...as this fell sergeant, death,
Is strict in his arrest...
02:59:36.358 --> 02:59:38.243
O, I could tell you...
02:59:39.668 --> 02:59:41.415
But let it be.
02:59:43.713 --> 02:59:45.706
Horatio, I am dead.
02:59:47.951 --> 02:59:49.508
Thou livest.
02:59:50.944 --> 02:59:54.373
Report me and my cause aright
to the unsatisfied.
02:59:54.374 --> 02:59:57.913
Never believe it:
I am more an antique Roman than a Dane:
02:59:57.914 --> 02:59:59.357
Here's yet some liquor left.
02:59:59.358 --> 03:00:03.272
As thou'rt a man, give me the cup:
let go; by heaven, I'll have't.
03:00:07.480 --> 03:00:10.662
O good Horatio,
03:00:13.081 --> 03:00:14.899
what a wounded name,
03:00:15.290 --> 03:00:18.685
Things standing thus unknown,
shall live behind me!
03:00:21.974 --> 03:00:23.904
If thou didst ever
03:00:24.375 --> 03:00:26.360
hold me in thy heart,
03:00:29.556 --> 03:00:32.426
Absent thee from felicity awhile,
03:00:34.621 --> 03:00:37.076
And in this harsh world
03:00:38.450 --> 03:00:40.671
world draw thy breath in pain,
03:00:41.998 --> 03:00:43.766
To tell my story.
03:00:56.374 --> 03:00:57.815
The rest...
03:01:00.593 --> 03:01:02.617
is silence.
03:01:15.911 --> 03:01:18.523
Now cracks a noble heart.
03:01:21.429 --> 03:01:23.893
Good night sweet prince:
03:01:25.045 --> 03:01:29.152
And flights of angels
sing thee to thy rest!
