So excellent a king, that was to this, Hyperion to a satyr; so loving to my mother That he might not beteem the winds of heaven Visit her face too roughly.

Hamlet the king:
A god – a Sun god
Lighting up the sky
Holding back the wind
Protecting his beloved queen
From the elements.
As king, he is not required
To love his wife,
But it seems as if he did.
And so tenderly, it moves
His son
Simply to think about it.
How does the sun
Shield his wife
From the wind?
How does the son
Shield his heart
From breaking?
