Scene IV
THE QUEEN'S CLOSET.
 //ENTER QUEEN AND POLONIUS.//
POLONIUS: He will come straight. Look you lay home to him:
Tell him his pranks have been too broad to bear with,
And that your grace hath screen'd and stood between
Much heat and him. I'll sconce me even here.

HAMLET [WITHIN.]: Mother, mother, mother,!

QUEEN: Come, come, you answer with an idle tongue.
HAMLET: Go, go, you question with a wicked tongue.
QUEEN: Why, how now, Hamlet!
HAMIET: What's the matter now?
QUEEN: Have you forgot me?
HAMLET: No, by the rood, not so:
You are the queen, your husband's brother's wife;
And — would it were not so! — you are my mother.
QUEEN: Nay, then set those to you that can speak.

Scena IV
IATACUL REGINEI.
//INTRA REGINA SI POLONIUS.//
POLONIUS:
Soseste-indata. Doamna, se cuvine
Amarnic sa-l mustrati. Sa stie bine
Ca fapte de acestea, naravase
Nu pot mereu sa fie-ingaduite.
Ati cautat sa-i mijlociti iertarea.
M-ascund aici. Sa nu-i luati apararea!
HAMLET (DE AFARA):
 Mama, mama, mama!
REGINA:
Te bizuie pe mine... Ii voi spune.
Ascunde-te mai iute, caci soseste.
//POLONIUS SE ASCUNDE DUPA O DRAPERIE//
// I NTRA HAMLET//
HAMLET:
Ce vrei cu mine, mama?
REGINA: L-ai jignit
Pe tatal, pe rege! si cumplit!
HAMLET: Pe tata l-ai jignit cumplit, o, mama!
REGINA: Nesocotit raspuns, de buna seama!
HAMLET: Raspuns rostit de-o gura otravita...
REGINA: Ce vrei sa spui?
HAMLET: Cazuta in ispita...
REGINA: Uiti cine sunt?
HAMLET: Ba catusi de putin!
Regina esti, si soata celui care
 ti-a fost cumnat... de n-ar fi fost asa
Era mai bine... Dar, esti mama mea!
REGINA: Am sa-i trimit pe altii sa-ti vorbeasca...
HAMLET: Nu, stai! Nu te misca. intr-o oglinda,(...) "
