Enter Prologue.[1219]
Ham. We shall know by this fellow: the players cannot[1220]
keep counsel; they'll tell all.[1221]
Oph. Will he tell us what this show meant?[1222]
Ham. Ay, or any show that you'll show him: be not you[1223] 135
ashamed to show, he'll not shame to tell you what it means.
Oph. You are naught, you are naught: I'll mark the[1224]
play.
Pro. For us, and for our tragedy,
Here stooping to your clemency, 140
We beg your hearing patiently.
Ham. Is this a prologue, or the posy of a ring?[1225]
Oph. 'Tis brief, my lord.
Ham. As woman's love.
Enter two Players, King and Queen.[1226]
