I cannot find my elephant.
He must have run away.
He isn’t on the sofa
where he promised he would stay.
I’ve looked around the living room,
the kitchen and the hall.
My elephant is missing
and I’m not sure who to call.
I’ll need to get a bloodhound
who can track him by his scent,
or hire a house detective
to discover where he went.
He isn’t in the basement
or the attic or the yard.
You’d think, to find an elephant
would not be quite so hard.
Perhaps I’ll make some posters,
and I’ll offer a reward.
I’d make it more, but fifty cents
is all I can afford.
If you should see my elephant,
he answers to “Jerome.”
Please tell him that I miss him
and I wish he’d come back home.
He knows the way. It’s up the street
and down our garden path.
And next time I won’t warn him
when it’s time to take his bath.
Shakespeare allowed Claudius to present a soliloquy to show Claudius' rationality and his understanding of the actions and consequences he provoked.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- Claudius is a complex character and aware of his actions.
- Shakespeare wanted to reinforce Claudius' rationality by showing that he killed his brother aware of what he was doing, but also aware that he was acting the wrong way.
- Claudius, despite being rational is a person capable of feeling emotions, as we can see in the way he talks to the queen.
- This ability is what makes him feel guilt, fear, and sadness for the sin he committed in full control of his actions.
Sin makes Claudius feel estranged from God. He wants to ask for forgiveness, but he knows he is not sorry, and therefore, God will not hear him. In this case, the soliloquy is what allows Claudius to express the guilt he has, even though he is happy with the result of his actions.
