William Shakespeare - Hamlet
She kneels, and makes show of
protestation unto him. He takes her up, and declines his
head upon her neck: lays him down upon a bank of
flowers: she, seeing him asleep, leaves him. Anon comes
in a fellow, takes off his crown, kisses it, and pours pois-
on in the King's ears, and exit. The Queen returns; finds
the King dead, and makes passionate action. The Poison-
er, with some two or three Mutes, comes in again, seem-
ing to lament with her. The dead body is carried away.
The Poisoner wooes the Queen with gifts: she seems

love
