Question: Hamlet tells Osrio, "Sir, I will walk here in the hall. If it please, his / Majesty, it is the breathing time of day with me. Let / the fols be brought, the selleman wiling, and the r king hold his purpose. I will win for him an I can. / If not, I wil gain nothing but my shame and the odd / hits" (lines 184 -

191) Hamlet does not seem to suspect any sinister purpose for the fencing match, arranged by the very man who has already tried to kill him and succeeded in killing Hamlet's father. Hamlet seems to think, that if he loses the match, he will only suffer from embarrassment and not lose his life. Is this an oversight on Shakespeare's part? Or is it possible that Hamlet's high opinion of Laertes' as a "very noble youth" (5.1.331) makes him confident that no foul play will occur?
