He resents the burden placed on him for being the Kings son- and the responsibilities that come with that birth right.]]> 2016-09-14 18:58:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mrsfinkenhagen/polonius/wish/123894001 https://padlet.com/mrsfinkenhagen/polonius/wish/123894346 In this phrase, Hamlet feels as though it was fate that lead him this current state of affairs, and he curses the way things are. This not only lends to his emotional instability, but also lends towards a deeper care he has for his father and hatred for Claudius.
