Abe What line from Act III of Hamlet supports the conclusion that Claudius fears his own fate?
O And, like a man to double business bound,
I stand in pause where I shall first begin,
And both neglect
O What if this cursed hand
Were thicker than itself with brother's blood,
Is there not rain enough in the sweet heavens
To wash it white as snow?
Bow, stubborn knees; and heart with strings of steel
Be soft as sinews of the new-born babe.
My words fly up, my thoughts remain below:
Words without thoughts never to heaven go.
