HAMLET
Not where he eats, but where he is eaten: a certain
convocation of politic worms are e'en at him. Your
worm is your only emperor for diet: we fat all
creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for
maggots: your fat king and your lean beggar is but
variable service, two dishes, but to one table:
that's the end. KING CLAUDIUS
Alas, alas! HAMLET
A man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a
king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm. KING CLAUDIUS
What dost you mean by this? HAMLET
Nothing but to show you how a king may go a
progress through the guts of a beggar. |
