“'Even the point is poisoned! Then, poison, to your work' 'Drink this potion'' (Shakespeare, page 281, lines 352-357). In the first scheme, Prince Hamlet was trying to kill King Claudius because of the king killing Hamlet's late father and the result was a success, because Prince Hamlet actually proceeded with the actions of murdering King Claudius; hitting him in the neck with the poisoned sword and forcing him to drink the poisoned cup. "'My lord, I will strike him now' 'Take you now!' 'Laertes wounds Hamlet'” (Shakespeare, page 279, lines 322-331). Also, in the second scheme, King Claudius was plotting to execute Prince Hamlet, because Hamlet had discovered that Claudius had killed his father and planned to take revenge. the late King Hamlet; the result was that Hamlet slowly died due to a poisonous cut that soon led to his last breath. Finally, these two schemes have the same similarities, because they share the same motivation and the same result, which is killing for motivation and death for the other.
