Act 3, Sc. 1, lines 180-195: How is Polonius's new plan in keeping with his character as it has been developed through the play?

[Enter King and Polonius]

King. Love! His affections do not that way tend,

Nor what he spake, though it lacked form a little,

Was not like madness. There's something in his soul

O'er which his melancholy sits on brood,

And I do doubt the hatch and the disclose

Will be some danger; which for to prevent,

I have in quick determination

Thus set it down: he shall with speed to England

For the demand of our neglected tribute.

Haply the seas and countries different,

With variable objects, shall expel

This something-settled matter in his heart,

Whereon his brains still beating puts him thus

From fashion of himself. What think you on't?

Polonius. It shall do well. But yet do I believe

The origin and commencement of his grief

Sprung from neglected love. How now, Ophelia!

You need not tell us what Lord Hamlet said,

We heard it all. My lord, do as you please,

But if you hold it fit, after the play

Let his queen-mother all alone entreat him

To show his grief: let her be round with him,

And I'll be placed, so please you, in the ear

Of all their conference. If she find him not,

To England send him; or confine hime where

Your wisdom best shall think.
