Explanation: In Shakespeare's <em>Hamlet</em>, Gertrude is Prince Hamlet's mother and the Queen of Denmark. After King Hamlet dies, Gertrude decides to marry his brother, Claudius. Therefore,<u> in this excerpt from the play, Hamlet criticizes his mother for marrying Claudius so hastily after his father's death and he even describes her as a "weak" woman for doing it</u>.
