By 'author of the essay reading Shakespeare' do you mean us readers?
As, I'm currently doing right try and read classical novels like 'How to kill a mockingbird'. There's no need to rush if it's the first time reading, the more you read (or few of classicals) you will kind off get what the author is making the character speaking. Also understanding the aspect of the story. :)
This is the best answer I can find. After reading it over multiple times I shortened it down to the word Delicate. It makes it sound like she want's this gown.
I see myself hopefully having a job that will support me in life so that i will have a good future. i see me surround myself with family everyday because they help me the best.
Answer:
Rather than Ophelia, it was Gertrude that Hamlet tried to persuade to align with him and tell the truth about the death of the king. This scene can be found in Act III scene iv of the play "Hamlet" by William Shakespeare.
Explanation:
Hamlet did not approach or ask Ophelia to align with him and tell the truth. Rather, it was his mother Queen Gertrude that he approached to change her ways and tell the truth to everyone.
Act III scene iv shows the scene where Queen Gertrude had called Hamlet for a private audience with her to reprimand him about his act of aggravating the King. Hamlet had organised a performance of a play where the very deeds of a younger brother killing his elder brother for the kingship were shown. Gertrude wanted Hamlet to apologize to his step father/uncle, the now king Claudius. In this scene, Hamlet pleads with her to change her ways, reveal the truth and become the lady she was before she married Claudius. This scene also ended in the accidental death of Polonius, Ophelia's father.
It was Gertrude that he wanted and offered a chance to align with him. Ophelia was the woman he loved who turned insane after the death of her father.
