Act I: Scene 4

HAMLET.
It waves me still. —
Go on; I'll follow thee.

MARCELLUS.
You shall not go, my lord.

HAMLET.
Hold off your hands.

HORATIO.
Be rul'd; you shall not go.

HAMLET.
My fate cries out,
And makes each petty artery in this body
As hardy as the Nemean lion's nerve. —

[Ghost beckons.]

Still am I call'd; — unhand me, gentlemen; —

[Breaking free from them.]

By heaven, I'll make a ghost of him that lets me! —
I say, away! — Go on; I'll follow thee.
