(45 points answer ! ) from "hamlet," act 2

is it not monstrous that this player here,
but in a fiction, in a dream of passion,
could force his soul so to his own conceit
that from her working all his visage wanned,
tears in his eyes, distraction in his aspect,
a broken voice, and his whole function suiting
with forms to his conceit? and all for nothing—
for hecuba!
what’s hecuba to him or he to hecuba
that he should weep for her? what would he do
had he the motive and the cue for passion
that i have? he would drown the stage with tears
and cleave the general ear with horrid speech,
make mad the guilty and appall the free,
