Detailed explanation-1: -"His will is not his own, / For he himself is subject to his birth. / He may not, as unvalued persons do, / Carve for himself, for on his choice depends / The safety and the health of this whole state” (1.3. 20-24). Laertes further reminds Ophelia that Hamlet is a prince and must be “subject” to his role.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hamlet, Laertes tells Ophelia, is of a higher rank than she and cannot choose with whom he will spend his life. To protect her heart and to safeguard her honor, Laertes asserts that Ophelia should reject Prince Hamlet before he deflowers her.
Detailed explanation-3: -Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice; Take each man’s censure, but reserve thy judgment. Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express’d in fancy; rich, not gaudy; For the apparel oft proclaims the man, And they in France of the best rank and station Are of a most select and generous chief in that.
Detailed explanation-4: -After sending some of his attendants to retrieve it, Claudius tells Hamlet that he’s being sent to England with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Once Hamlet leaves, Claudius reveals his true plan: as soon as Hamlet arrives in England, he’ll be put to death by the English court.
