The structure of the piece also communicates the nature of Hamlet's thoughts as he is constantly changing subject, "Let me not think on't - Frailty thy name is woman! A little month", and is doing so by using short, broken sentences. These helps reveal and suggest the depth of Hamlet's thoughts; he has so much going in his head that he wants to commit suicide and is therefore trying to reduce his feelings.
At the start, Hamlet says that he wants his "too too solid flesh" to "...melt, thaw, and resolve itself into a dew". This goes alongside the later lines, "How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable seem
to me all the uses of this world", where the build up of adjectives, one after the other, serves to highlight just how difficult it is for Hamlet to live in the world. It is as if Hamlet cannot deal with or, indeed, stand the physical side of life anymore; he needs to get rid of his body to be able to deal with the inner conflict going on in his head. The image that is expressed serves to reveal not only the tragic nature of his problem, also highlighted by his allusions to suicide, but also create a link between him and the audience. In fact, the entire soliloquy establishes a connection between the audience and Hamlet, a concept that is essential in the play much similar to the parallax effect in soliloquy two.
Later on, he says tis an unweeded garden. Now the reader becomes aware that he is making metaphorical connection to the Garden of Eden. The imagery here is that of Eden falling apart. Indeed, his father’s ghost makes this same connection, saying that he was stung by a serpent while in his garden. Thus Denmark under Old Hamlet can be viewed as Eden, whereas now the serpent, Claudius has taken over.
In this soliloquy, we also learn about Hamlet's adoration of his father and how this serves to emphasize the scorn that he shows towards his mother. Hamlet communicates that his father was a divine, almost 'god-like' character, "so excellent a king", who was "so loving to my mother". He also illustrates the contrast between the new king and the old and as such his mother's choice, "Hyperion to a satyr". This metaphor, analogy, and example of extreme contrast increases the importance of Hamlet's father, to the audience, and yet also makes a mockery of Claudius' character.
Therefore, this soliloquy is successful in communicating the emotional state of Hamlet to the audience because it reveals the true nature of Hamlet's feelings through the use imagery and language of the text. It successfully highlights the different aspects of Hamlet and aids the audience in building a connection with him.
