Recital

O, that this too too solid flesh would melt
Thaw and resolve itself into a dew!
Or that the Everlasting had not fix'd
His canon 'gainst self-slaughter! O God! God!
How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable, (135)
Seem to me all the uses of this world!
Fie on't! ah fie! 'tis an unweeded garden,
That grows to seed; things rank and gross in nature
Possess it merely. That it should come to this!
But two months dead: nay, not so much, not two: (140)
So excellent a king; that was, to this,
Hyperion to a satyr; so loving to my mother
That he might not beteem the winds of heaven
Visit her face too roughly. Heaven and earth!
Must I remember? why, she would hang on him, (145)
As if increase of appetite had grown
By what it fed on: and yet, within a month

Reflection

In the first semester, the first book we read was Hamlet I found it hard to understand, but it got easier when we discuss it as a class and go through the details. We had to rewrite the soliloquies on our own and choose one that we want to memorise and performe it, other students had the choice to write their own soliloquy. A soliloquy is : a) speaker is alone, b)shows real feelings, thoughts, and c) has to be in first person ( I / We)
