What if it tempt you toward the flood, my lord, Or to the dreadful summit of the cliff
That beetles o'er his base into the sea,
And there assume some other horrible form,
Which might deprive your sovereignty of reason
And draw you into madness? think of it:
The very place puts toys of desperation,
Without more motive, into every brain
That looks so many fathoms to the sea
And hears it roar beneath.
That beetles o'er his base into the sea,

And draw you into madness? think of it:

Without more motive, into every brain
That looks so many fathoms to the sea
And hears it roar beneath.
suggestive and beautiful words
words that draw your mind down into the spiral with Hamlet
you can see the abyss which might deprive you of your sovereigty of reason
and draw you into madness
there are also many situations in Hamlet where it might be said
the very place puts toys of desperation into every brain that looks so many fathoms to the sea and hears it roar beneath
