Hamlet: Holding Back Revenge
Words: 507 / Pages: 2 .... Hamlet is not shore if this is really his farther or a devil in disguise. Hamlet Swears revenge will be quick for his father’s murderer.
For the two months since Hamlet has seen the ghost, Hamlet has been unable to commit his vowed revenge; unable to explain to himself either his long delay or his depression and insanity. Maybe he’s scared of taking revenge on Claudius, he may think by taking revenge he endangers his own soul. “No matter how right a man might think his motives are, if Claudius is innocent; the act of revenge would inevitably make Hamlet as evil as the accused in the eyes of God” (Becker p.32).

result was murdered. But his murder wasn't really disheartening, because
the Thane of Cawdor, deserved his fate. He was leading a battle, in which
many lost their lives, for the sake of greed, and deserved to die because
of his flaw. Duncan was the King of England, and was murdered by MacBeth.
He was murdered, because in order for MacBeth to fulfill his plan and
become king, Duncan would have to die. Duncan's fatal flaw was that he was
too trusting. For example, he thought that none of his friends could
really be enemies. If Duncan was more careful about his safety at
MacBeth's castle, he m .....

(there are no stars in the sky)." (Line 5) Darkness evokes feelings of

Now I see 'tis true;/ For the blood- boltered Banquo smiles upon me/ And points at them for his" (4.1.136-138). In the end Macbeth believes in the prophecies to make his own fate.
