As I mentioned in my last blog that I was going to discuss with my Lord Claudius about the occurences of what had happened between my daughter Ophelia and Hamlet. I came up with a brillant plan to figure out if Hamlet is crazy about my daughter or if he just plain crazy to begin with. I decided that King Claudius and I would spy on Hamlet while Ophelia returned all the letters, poems, and stories to Hamlet and perhaps Hamlet would beg to Ophelia that he wants her back and that he loves without a doubt. King Claudius agreed to my plan, so both of us discuss to Ophelia the plan, I could tell in her eyes she did not want to go through with this but she obeyed intently. King Claudia and I hid inside one of the mirrors of castles in the lobby. Hamlet comes in walking around, asking himself is it better to live or to die.
After he is done contemplating, he see's my Ophelia. Ophelia says she wants to return the letters that he had given to her. Hamlet says that he doesn't recall giving her anything and that she isn't pure to him anymore. He goes crazy saying that she should goto the nunnery and that he doesn't love her anymore.
It was extremely painful to listen and to watch... But I also suspect that Hamlet knew we were spying on him.. But oh well.. Tonight I am curious about the play and I hope Hamlet is sent to England... Goodness I can't stand him..
