11-3 Soliloquy

 In the soliloquy on page 38, Hamlet seems suspicious about how his father really died with "...[his] father's spirit in arms." He knows "foul deeds will rise, though all the earth o'erwhelm them, to men's eyes."

11-1 Soliloquy

1. It is a soliloquy because on page 26 it says that everyone leaves the stage except for Hamlet, who shares his feelings alone with the audience.
2. The insight Hamlet gives to the audience is that he is depressed. He wishes his "...sullied flesh would melt," because he feels great sorrow due to the recent death of his father and his mother marrying his uncle.
