see that noble and most sovereign reason, Like sweet bells jangled, out of tune and harsh; That unmatch'd
form and feature of blown youth Blasted with ecstasy: O, woe is me, To have seen what I have seen, see
what I see!
Re-enter KING CLAUDIUS and POLONIUS KING CLAUDIUS
Love! his affections do not that way tend; Nor what he spake, though it lack'd form a little, Was not like
madness. There's something in his soul, O'er which his melancholy sits on brood; And I do doubt the
hatch and the disclose Will be some danger: which for to prevent, I have in quick determination Thus set it
down: he shall with speed to England, For the demand of our neglected tribute Haply the seas and countries
different With variable objects shall expel This something-settled matter in his heart, Whereon his brains
still beating puts him thus From fashion of himself. What think you on't? LORD POLONIUS
It shall do well: but yet do I believe The origin and commencement of his grief Sprung from neglected
love. How now, Ophelia! You need not tell us what Lord Hamlet said; We heard it all. My lord, do as you
please; But, if you hold it fit, after the play Let his queen mother all alone entreat him To show his grief: let
her be round with him; And I'll be placed, so please you, in the ear Of all their conference. If she find him
not, To England send him, or confine him where Your wisdom best shall think. KING CLAUDIUS
It shall be so: Madness in great ones must not unwatch'd go.
