Hamlet: now might i do it pat, now he is praying; and now i’ll do ’t: and so he goes to heaven; and so am i reveng’d. that would be scann’d: a villain kills my father; and for that, i, his sole son, do this same villain send to heaven. why, this is hire and salary, not revenge. he took my father grossly, full of bread, with all his crimes broad blown, as flush as may; and how his audit stands who knows save heaven? but in our circumstance and course of thought ’tis heavy with him. and am i then reveng’d, to take him in the purging of his soul, when he is fit and season’d for his passage? no. which statement best describes hamlet’s complexity in the excerpt? hamlet wants to avenge his father’s death, but he doubts claudius’s guilt. hamlet wants to commit murder, but he worries about his own fate. hamlet wants to kill claudius, but he wants to be sure claudius will suffer. hamlet wants to end claudius’s life, but he realizes he is incapable of violence.

b. is your best choice

The correct answer here is: Hamlet wants to kill Claudius, but he wants to be sure Claudius will suffer.

Explanation:

"Hamlet", the tragic play written by William Shakespeare between 1599 and 1602, narrates the life and situations that take place around Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. In this particular passage of the play, Hamlet is argumenting whether to carry out his rightful revenge against the murderer of his father, but according to his words, the thing that worries him the most is that although he is sure of the righteousness of what he is about to do, and that he would be justified, the problem lies in that his uncle is presently at prayer, which would allow him to receive pardon from God for his sin, and thus, he would be salvaged from suffering and pain in the afterlife: "And am I then reveng´d, To take him in the purging of his soul, When he is fit and season´d for his passage? No." This idea in itself becomes the defeat of Hamlet´s own purpose, which is to see his uncle suffer forever.
