11-3-10 Hamlet's State of Mind

Hamlet feels that his father's ghost wandering around is a sign that "Foul deeds will rise, Though all the earth o'erwhealm them, to men's eyes."

11-1-10 Soliloquy

1. Hamlet's small speech is a soliloquy because he is on stage alone saying aloud all his thoughts, ideas, and his motives on what's going on in and outside of the kingdom.

2. Hamlet is in a depressed and melancholy mood, wishing that ,"God had not made a law against suicide." He talks about how his father has only been dead for a short period of time and how his mother is already over it because she's already gone and married his brother and he believes that no good would come from it.
