Examples Of Eulogy Of Hamlet

vDearest friends, families, and the people of Denmark… I appreciate your attendance on this emergent assembly. Today, we have all gathered here to mourn the loss of our noble prince of Denmark, loyal son of King Hamlet and Queen Gertrude, and true friend of ours: prince Hamlet. Let us commemorate his death and remember the good memories we have shared with him. My name is Horatio and I am Hamlet’s trusted friend and confidant. Right before death, Hamlet asked me to spread the story of his life, and I am more than honored to carry out the glorious task.
For the ones who don’t know, let me clarify the truth of the recent incident that led to the unfortunate death of Hamlet at the young age of 30. In the last days of his short life, he discovered
Under such adversities, he was the only white rose in a garden of weeds, threatened by betrayal and distrust.

He was a fan of classic and modern dramas, and was ready to recite his favorite lines whenever available. The elegant swordsmanship, along with fluency with swords and beautiful styles, he exhibited in the duals amazed everyone and proved himself as a patriot who mastered an art one day needed to fight for Denmark. And above all, he was a passionate lover. He loved Ophelia, the daughter of Polonius, so much, but his inability to express his love acted as a barrier between them. Although his actions and expressions may have seemed scornful and rude, Hamlet wholeheartedly loved her more than anyone could fathom as he has confessed one of the last times I was with him that ‘Forty thousand brothers could not with all their quantity of love make up my sum.’ It was heartbreaking to see such a generous, considerate, and affectionate man unable to formally declare his sincere love with Ophelia under acclamations and delight.
