Detailed explanation-1: -Hamlet tells Horatio again that he is dying, and urges his friend not to commit suicide in light of all the tragedies, but instead to stay alive and tell his story. He says that he wishes Fortinbras to be made King of Denmark; then he dies.
Detailed explanation-2: -6. What is Hamlet’s dying request of Horatio? (Did you know-Horatio’s name might be derived from the word “orator” which means speaker.) He asks Horatio to live on and tell his story.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hamlet tells horatio to let his story live because he knows that he is about to die and his story is one that can be related to. I believe Hamlet asks Horatio to tell his story because he wants people to know the real story. He wants a legacy of him especially to be left behind, and he doesn’t want to be forgotten.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hamlet wants Horatio to tell his life story, and to tell Fortinbras that he gives permission for him to become the next king of Denmark. As he dies, Hamlet says that young Fortinbras has his vote to the next ruler of Denmark.
Detailed explanation-5: -Hamlet tells Horatio that he plans to feign madness before the King and the court. The madness will render him invisible so that he might observe and discern the best way and time for his revenge.
