The ghost asks to take revenge without hurting his mother because she does not know any thing and she is a "seeming-virtuous queen;" "(I, v, 47). .

             Hamlet already hates Claudius even before he met the ghost. His views about Claudius can be seen in the soliloquy, when Hamlet compares his father to King Claudius. " So excellent a king; that was, to this, Hyperion to a satyr My father"s brother, but no more like my father"(I, ii, 139-140). He also incenses his mother for marring Claudius almost immediately after the death of his father. The rejection of Ophelia and the marriage of his mother and the shocking news from the ghost make Prince Hamlet panics and make him upset. Hamlet first decides to act insane. Ophelia"s father thinks that the ignorance of Ophelia causes Hamlet madness. Hamlet"s mood changes constantly, when he speaks to the people. He says to Ophelia "you jig, you amble, and you lisp.and make your wantonness your ignorance"(III, i, 145-146). But she still loves Hamlet. She keeps calm and polite. When she returns Hamlet"s love token, Hamlet speaks with her very angrily "Get thee a nunnery: Why would thou be a breeder of sinners?" (III, i, 121). Hamlet is still waiting for the time to take revenge of his father"s death, but he is confused and double minded about whether the ghost is really his father"s spirit or a devil.

             In his soliloquy he says: .

             The sprit I have seen.

             May be the devil: and the devil hath power.

             To assume a pleasing shape: yea, and, perhaps.

             Out of my weakness and my melancholy (II, ii, 596-599).

             Hamlet makes a plan: .

             I have heard,.

             That guilty creatures, sitting at a play,.

             Have by the cunning of the scene.

             Been stuck so to the soul that presently .

             They have proclaim"d their malefactions;.

             For the murder, though it hath no tongue, will speak .

             With most miraculous organ. I"ll have these players.

             Play something like the murder of my father.
