Anglo-Saxon Prose Anglo-Saxon prose is earnestly practical and instructionally religious. Contrasted with Anglo-Saxon poetry‚ it reveals no originality of thought or of emotion but is remarkably free from its parallelisms‚ inversions‚ periphrases‚ and excessive use of metaphor and epithet. Loose in its compound sentence structure‚ common in its simple sentence arrangement‚ if somewhat stiff‚ it was generally direct and clear‚ forceful‚ occasionally rhythmical.

exclamations made by Hamlet. For instance some of these exclamations are: "all for nothing! For Hecuba!"‚ "O‚ vengeance!" and "What an ass I am!" The further skill Shakespeare utilizes in order to accomplish this tone of rebuke is by the means of the oratorical questions that Hamlet asks himself.
