Analysis of Too Too Solid Flesh Soliloquy 
O, that this too too solid flesh would melt.10 BEATS
 Thaw and resolve itself into a dew! 10 BEATS
Or that the Everlasting had not fix’d 10 BEATS 
his canon ‘gainst self-slaughter! O God! God! 11 BEATS
- the reference to God signifies time passing and death. He's speaking to the heavens.
-17 BEATS HIGHLIGHTS THAT THIS LINES NEEDS TO BE EMPHASISED AND STRESSED (ITS IMPORTANT)
How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable, 11 BEATS  
Seem to me all the uses of this world! 10 BEATS
Hamlet is distressed. emotional and thinks the world is pointles. How can the world be so shit? What the point. This is Hamlets declaration of giving up.
Fie on’t! oh fie! ’tis an unweeded garden, 12 BEATS 
That grows to seed; things rank and gross in nature  11 BEATS
possess it merely. That it should come to this! 11 BEATS 
But two months dead: nay, not so much, not two: 10 BEATS 
So excellent a king; that was, to this, 10 BEATS
Hyperion to a satyr; so loving to my mother 15 BEATS 
- Hamlet views his father as Godlike. This is an indicates that Hamlets relationship with his father must have been very strong.
that he might not beteem the winds of heaven 11 BEATS
visit her face too roughly. Heaven and earth! 11 BEATS 
- Again another Godly reference.
Must I remember? why, she would hang on him, 11 BEATS
As if increase of appetite had grown 10 BEATS
by what it fed on: and yet, within a month– 11 BEATS 
Let me not think on’t–Frailty, thy name is woman!– 12 BEATS 
- Hamlet's view on women isn't positive. Perhaps his view suddenly changed since Gertrudes actions?
A little month, or ere those shoes were old  10 BEATS
With which she follow’d my poor father’s body, 10 BEATS
Like Niobe, all tears:–why she, even she–  10 BEATS
O, God! a beast, that wants discourse of reason, 11 BEATS
Would have mourn’d longer–married with my uncle, 11 BEATS 
My father’s brother, but no more like my father 10 BEATS
Than I to Hercules: within a month: 10 BEATS
Ere yet the salt of most unrighteous tears. 10  BEATS
Had left the flushing in her galled eyes, 10 BEATS
She married. O, most wicked speed, to post 10 BEATS
With such dexterity to incestuous sheets! 12 BEATS
It is not nor it cannot come to good: 10 BEATS
But break, my heart; for I must hold my tongue. 10 BEATS

English Translation ( BY ME)

"Oh how I wish my body, my vessel, would just melt into water and vanish away into nothing but the air."
"But God, the lord and immortal, never forbid killing oneself."


"Miserable! The world is an overgrown garden to which has withered and died, and left to become stale and gross."
"Everything in this world is flat, stale and useless. Whats the point?"
"That it should come to all this! He's been two dead only two months! Not even that!"
"My father, was such an excellent king. We've gone from my father, a god to m uncle, an adulterous beast."
"He was so caring to my mother that he would't let anything hurt her not even the winds of heaven."
"Why, mother clung to my father as if she ever grew tired of him. But how? Oh within a month?!"
"Do I have to remember this again!? Women are weak minded."
"Do I have to remember this again!? Women are weak minded."
"A little month, since the funeral! Her shoes weren't even old before she ran to my uncle!"
"Like the tragedy of Niobe, she was all tears! Oh God! A beast without the ability to speak or reason would have mourned longer than her! She married my uncle!"
"My fathers brother. But he is no more like my dad than I am to the Zeus' son Hercules, who was strong and noble."
"Before her tears were gone she married my uncle."
"Christ, how eager she was to leap to bed with my uncle, my very own blood."
"It is not nor it cannot come to any good. As much as I still grieve, I mustn't say a word."
