Both Uses of
Hamlet
in
The Mill on the Floss
- Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, was speculative and irresolute, and we have a great tragedy in consequence.†
Chpt 6.6 *
- But if his father had lived to a good old age, and his uncle had died an early death, we can conceive Hamlet's having married Ophelia, and got through life with a reputation of sanity, notwithstanding many soliloquies, and some moody sarcasms toward the fair daughter of Polonius, to say nothing of the frankest incivility to his father-in-law.†
Chpt 6.6
