The key moment of the play is when the actor says: "On the armor of Mars, forged for an eternal test, with less remorse than Pyrrhus' bloody sword now falls on Priam " (Hamlet 2. 2 430-433). Although this is a bit confusing because Hamlet could identify with Pyrrhus the avenger or he could identify the victim with his father and the murderer with Claudius (Allingham). Later, Hamlet intentionally tells the actors to skip to the line “come to Hecuba” (Hamlet 2. 2. 440). This shows how Hamlet is trying to compare the emotions of Hecuba, queen of Troy, with the emotions of Gertrude even though, unlike the story, Gertrude did not witness the death of her husband (Allingham). The actor gives us vivid imagery when he says, "When he saw Pyrrhus make a mischievous trick in mincing with his sword her husband's lips, the instant outburst he made, Unless mortal things moved them all, would have made milk the burning eyes of heaven and passion in the gods" (Hamlet 2,2,452-457) shows how Hecuba's pain was so great that it would have made the Olympians cry while Gertrude has no more tears for her father. of Hamlet.Hamlet seems to point out that Gertrude should be more emotionally moved by her father's death and
