Question

Hamlet wants to avenge his father's murder. However, his indecision prevents him from taking action. Which of these excerpts from act IV mark the turning point of Shakespeare's tragedy?

Answer 1

The answer is the third one down:

"Now might I do it pat, now he is praying;
And now I'll do't—and so he goes to heaven,
And so am I reveng'd. That would be scann'd:
A villain kills my father; and for that
I, his sole son, do this same villain send
To Heaven
O, this is hire and salary, not revenge."
