Answer:

A. The speaker mentions Hamlet to show how he comes to terms with indecision and makes a stand.

Explanation:

In this stanza, the speaker compares himself to the characters in <em>Hamlet</em>. He tells us that he is not Prince Hamlet, who eventually overcomes his indecision and makes a stand. Instead, he is an "attendant." He is only useful to move the story along ("<em>To swell a progress, start a scene or two,"</em>) and is too careful and mild to be exciting in the way Hamlet is (<em>"Politic, cautious, and meticulous; Full of high sentence, but a bit obtuse;</em>"), so much so that he can end up looking like "the Fool." The poem makes an allusion to Hamlet, as an allusion is an indirect reference to a work, place, event, person or idea from an unrelated context.
