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

This must not be.' And then I precepts gave her,

That she should lock herself from his resort,

Admit no messengers, receive no tokens.

Which done, she took the fruits of my advice,

And he, repulsed, – a short tale to make —

Fell into a sadness, then into a fast,

Thence to a watch, thence into a weakness,

Thence to a lightness, and, by this declension,

Into the madness wherein now he raves,

And all we wail for.

King

Do you think 'tis this?

Queen

It may be, very likely.

Polonius

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

That I have positively said ''Tis so,'

When it prov'd otherwise?

King

Not that I know.

Polonius

Take this from this, if this be otherwise.

[Points to his head and shoulder]

If circumstances lead me, I will find

Where truth is hid, though it were hid indeed

Within the centre.

King

How may we try it further?

Polonius

You know sometimes he walks four hours together

Here in the lobby.

Queen

So he does indeed.

Polonius

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

Be you and I behind an arras then,

Mark the encounter. If he love her not,

And be not from his reason fall'n thereon,

Let me be no assistant for a state,

But keep a farm and carters.

King

We will try it.

[Enter Hamlet, reading]

Queen

But look where sadly the poor wretch comes reading.

Polonius

Away, I do beseech you, both away

I'll board him presently. O, give me leave.

[Exeunt King, Queen and Attendants]
