A Hamlet Test. More than expected.

• Have you ever noticed how, in Shakespear's plays, when people say they have seen a ghost, they usually did? Were people more reliable in those days? Were ghosts?
• Consider the effect on Ophelia's future if she had known how to swim.
• Which is the most horrible line in the play? Not counting; of course, "O, horrible! O, horrible! Most horrible!" (I,v,80)
• Ultimately, did Polonius suffer from constipation or not? (A medical certificate is not required to answer but a note from home would help.)
