Save me, and hover o'er me with your wings,[1504] You heavenly guards! What would your gracious figure?[1505] _Queen._ Alas, he's mad![1506] 105 _Ham._ Do you not come your tardy son to chide, That, lapsed in time and passion, lets go by[1507] The important acting of your dread command? O, say![1508] _Ghost._ Do not forget: this visitation 110 Is but to whet thy almost blunted purpose. But look, amazement on thy mother sits: O, step between her and her fighting soul:[1509] Conceit in weakest bodies strongest works: Speak to her, Hamlet. _Ham._ How is it with you, lady? 115 _Queen._ Alas, how is't with you, That you do bend your eye on vacancy[1510] And with the incorporal air do hold discourse?[1511] Forth at your eyes your spirits wildly peep; And, as the sleeping soldiers in the alarm, 120 Your bedded hairs, like life in excrements,[1512] Start up and stand an end. O gentle son,[1513] Upon the heat and flame of thy distemper Sprinkle cool patience. Whereon do you look? _Ham._ On him, on him! Look you, how pale he glares![1514] 125 His form and cause conjoin'd, preaching to stones,[1515] Would make them capable. Do not look upon me,[1516] Lest with this piteous action you convert My stern effects: then what I have to do[1517] Will want true colour; tears perchance for blood. 130 _Queen._ To whom do you speak this? _Ham._ Do you see nothing there?[1518] _Queen._ Nothing at all; yet all that is I see.[1519] _Ham._ Nor did you nothing hear? _Queen._ No, nothing but ourselves. _Ham._ Why, look you there! look, how it steals away![1520] My father, in his habit as he lived![1521] 135 Look, where he goes, even now, out at the portal![1522] [_Exit Ghost._ _Queen._ This is the very coinage of your brain: This bodiless creation ecstasy[1523] Is very cunning in.[1523]
