Scene II IT
Enter Hamlet.
HAMLET
Safely stowed.
[Calling within.]
But soft, what noise? Who calls on Hamlet? O, here they come.
Enter Rosencrantz, Guildenstern, and Others.
ROSENCRANTZ
What have you done, my lord, with the dead body?
HAMLET
Compounded it with dust, whereto ’tis kin. [5]
ROSENCRANTZ
Tell us where ’tis, that we may take it thence and bear it to the chapel.
HAMLET
Do not believe it.
ROSENCRANTZ
Believe what?
HAMLET
That I can keep your counsel and not mine [10] own. Besides, to be
demanded of a sponge − what replication should be made by the son of a
king?
ROSENCRANTZ
Take you me for a sponge, my lord?
