Read the excerpt from Hamlet. Claudius: Why to a public count I might not go, Is the great love the general gender bear him; Who, dipping all his faults in their affection, Would, like the spring that turneth wood to stone, Convert his gyves to graces; so that my arrows, Too slightly timber'd for so loud a wind, Would have reverted to my bow again, And not where I had aim'd them. Which conclusion about Claudius does the excerpt support? He is not a popular king. He is not a good hunter. He is really on Hamlet's side. He fears for Hamlet's safety.
