None was more amazing than the way Claudius convinced people to completely change ...

Loud music, drums and guns, the lights go up. Cheap? Yes, of course it ... night, That too is enough, if not too much. Order Is fused of such refuse, eternity Lusts after the productions of time. Nemerov contemplates the life of the Shakespearean character, Hamlet, as it relates to humanity. He recalls Fortinbras's last words on lines one and two, "Bear Hamlet, like a soldier, to the stage / (The world a stage).", to explain that the struggle Hamlet underwent is the same as the universal questioning of humanity (Andrews 129).

O proud death, What feast is toward in thine eternal cell That thou so many princes at a shot So bloodily hast struck!"
