Your worm is your

only emperor for diet: we fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat

ourselves for maggots: your fat king and your lean beggar is but

variable service, two dishes, but to one table: that’s the end. (IV,

iii, 21-26)

This statement id a reference to the food chain, and in turn, a reflection

on the meaning of life. It illustrates the equality of men in that whether

one is born to be a king or a beggar, when one dies, we are all equal.

Worms and maggots do not treat anybody differently once one is dead and

buried.

The final scene draws the greatest sympathy towards Hamlet even though

he is not even in the scene. The forces of Claudius and Laertes have

combined against Hamlet. Claudius states,

?

To an exploit now ripe in my device, Under the which he shall not

choose but fall, And for his death no wind of blame shall breathe; But

even his mother shall unchange the practice, And call it accident.

(IV, vii, 65-69)

?

Claudius is willing to undertake any measures necessary to eliminate

Hamlet, to the point that it does not matter whether or not it hurts

Gertrude in any way. This scene depicts Hamlet as the victim, much like two

bullies picking on a smaller child in school, since the king, with the aid

of Laertes, is out to kill Hamlet, this time with a passion. Much like a

political revolutionary, Hamlet has the system against him and is facing

death because of his loyalty and honour towards his father.
