3. Home There is a willow grows aslant a brook, That shows his hoar leaves in the glassy stream; There with fantastic garlands did she come Of crow-flowers, nettles, daisies, and long purples That liberal shepherds give and grosser name, But our cold maids do dead men’s fingers call them: There, on the pendent boughs her coronet weeds Clambering to hang, an envious sliver broke; When down her weedy trophies and herself Fell in the weeping brook. Her clothes spread wide; And, mermaid-like, awhile they bore her up: Which time she chanted snatches of old tunes; As on incapable of her own distress, Or like a creature native and indued Unto that element: but long it could be Till that her garments, heavy with their drink, Pull’d the poor wretch from her melodious lay To muddy death. - Queen Gertrude This picture demonstrates the story of how Ophelia died/killed herself.

14. Home Leaves are falling To cover the maiden Whose feet quickly traverse The wilderness The catch in her hair Flowing behind her like garland In the cool wind And, she's Ophelia as she Splashes into the winter river And floats downstream Blue lips and purple rimmed eyes She's a picture of icy beauty As her dress drags her down to the bottom Where she waits A century later To be thawed in a Spring That never comes Ophelia

15. Final ReflectionsThe thing that surprised me about my thinking in this unit was that Hamlet killed Polonius. The writing in this unit was relevant to my life because there’s many things our parents tell us to do, but we don’t obey them.The piece I’m most proud of is my quotes because they are what makes my project entertaining. If Ophelia was standing right in front of me, I would try to talk her out of killing herself, and try to help her through her father’s death. I will hold onto the different events that took place in this book and learn from the bad mistakes and take advice from the good things.
