Hamlet: after the ghost of his father tells him he must seek revenge hamlet becomes weary. Wonders if it is wrong to kill himself and if it will release him: does he not fear the ghost, the king doesn"t believe that hamlet is mad. Scared of him: wants to send hamlet to england, positive mood before the play as he is nally doing something, he is ecstatic after the play and ignores his two-timing friends rosencrantz and. Guildenstern: he also is angry at his mother and he fears his own anger. Runs into king: doesn"t kill him in prayer as he might go to heaven. Another unconscious excuse for delay: poorly defends himself to his father"s ghost. Another proof of reluctance: this hesitancy brings about hamlet"s downfall. Proven by the return of the ghost: even he is upset by hamlet"s hesitancy, the ghost evokes hamlet and he accidentally kills polonius. Sobers him: he hopes to save his mother"s soul.
